This took some doing... I saw the dandelions in my rather wild garden and thought I need to do some more close up work. I cleared the breakfast bar and set up a tabletop studio. Plucking a 'clock' I opened the jaws of a tough clamp and set the stalk so it would stand alone on the table. It was as I went about my snaps I realised just how quickly these things wilt... after only three shots I noticed it was bending out of frame and focus! the poor thing is dying and there's no way to resuscitate it- Shot a few rapid frames before I gave it a decent burial... well, that is I gave it to Oscar, Rabbits LOVE dandelions!!!
Strobist: Two YN560s and an SB700, two to the front, either side and close mounted on their 'feet' all set to 1/32pwr while the SB700 was hand-held and very close. All triggered with RF603s and fired with a yn126 remote.

It's a good job that at least some parts of this image is sharp., lol!
Where did my long description disappear to??????? I added it two or three hours ago and now it has suddenly vanished! Will have to add it again.
I love the tiny feathers that owls have, especially around the face. You can see how these tiny feathers can trap the heat to protect the owl in cold weather.
Five of us had such a great day on 21 July 2013. It was a bird outing at Bow Valley Provincial Park, west of Calgary, at the foot of the very eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. I knew that I would be looking for wildflowers, insects and so on, as well : ) When we got to the meeting place in the city, the leader pulled out a poster for the day's event that also happened to be going on at the park at the same time. To my absolute delight, it mentioned a Bird of Prey exhibit! After our first walk, which was the Flowing Waters trail, we returned to where everyone had parked and we had an hour in which to wander round the various exhibits. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a row of owls of different sizes - a tiny Burrowing Owl, a Short-eared Owl, a Barn Owl (which we don't get in Alberta), a young Great Horned Owl with enormous eyes (seen in this image), a Turkey Vulture, and a Golden Eagle! They were tethered along the edge of the trees and needless to say, there were plenty of other people taking photos. Despite the mix of shade and harsh sunlight, I got the chance to click to my heart's content : ) Later found out that many of my photos really were not well taken, but I got at least one that came out OK for each species ... phew! Thanks so much to the people down at the Coaldale Bird of Prey Centre (near Lethbridge, down towards the Canada/US border) for bringing your gorgeous birds of prey for us to see! I have been south to the Centre three times I think, and always wish I could go back again, but it's not somewhere I can drive to, so this was such a treat!

Male Scott's Oriole shaking out feathers! This guy looks young maybe second year, he still has some yellow on his head which should be entirely black as an adult.
I don't really know what these are,some sorta fluffy thing that keeps blowing all over the garden,they're not dandelions.
Edit: Asked my mam,finally; they're the seeds from a clemetis.Problem solved :)
This pocket fluff was made from my favorite fur ever! It is soo pretty and soo soft, making her the cuddliest pocket fluff yet!

There was no water nearby, so I doubt this black vulture had taken a bath. It must feel good to fluff up the feathers and let some air in!
Dandelion that has already gone to seed. It was quite windy and the fluff was being dispursed rather quickly.
Near Devine, Texas (or just about anywhere else in Texas if you look).
Limkin fluffing in Corkscrew Swamp.
They produce a unique clicking sound which makes it fairly to locate them even though they are not that common.
A beautiful windy day and I just love thist thistle fluff blowing in the wind. Had Bob Dylans song in my head..Blowin in the Wind ; )
It was like taking pictures of little kids...they would get settled for a minute and then in a blink of an eye were on the move again. But just so darn cute!
Couldn't go to Convention (Dying to go as I've never been and had quite a few dear friends go this year! :( ) So I had to console myself of course with some online shopping! Never thought I would collect the 'kiddies' but I just got a sausage curl Skipper from 1969 and her 1971 friend 'Living Fluff'. I was thrilled at their condition! - Their hair only needed some new rubber bands (the original ones had disintegrated but were still there) and some new ribbon bows in their hair... otherwise it was virtually untouched. Skipper came with no markings whatsoever anywhere on her body which was odd, but her peachy complexion is perfect. Both came with their OSS's but I thought they needed a change- Fluff is wearing 'Rik Rak Rah' from 1970 which looks so great with her skateboard that she originally was sold with, while Skipper is wearing 'Fancy Pants' also from that year, which was a gift from a collector friend Vintage Betty. 'C'mon Fluff... let's go exploring!' Skipper said to Fluff in a 1971 issue of 'Barbie Talk' magazine, so they are doing just that in my backyard.
