One thing about the new 7d ii, it really seems to be able to focus on the subject. This white on white must be really hard to distinguish.
Lily bud in a bouquet from the market. Eight focus stacked captures in artificial light. Guaranteed to brighten another foggy day.
Hope you are enjoying the weekend.
Take care and stay safe. Thanks for stopping by and for all of your support -- I deeply appreciate it.

The hibiscus flowers don't last long, in a day they are gone and wilted and all their beauty with them. I had been waiting for this particular bud to open because it stood out tall on the bush, away from the other flowers, I knew it would photograph well. The day the bud bloomed it rained .. and rained .. and rained some more. I thought it would be ruined but it wasn't. When the rain stopped it was more beautiful than ever :))
Have a great weekend everyone! :))
When the Caspian Tern sees a fish he wants, he does this. Stops, turns it’s head down, puts the wings out to stop, and starts the dive. From many photographs of this action, I have noted that the sharp beak spears the fish often like an Anhinga. I have never read this, but I have photographed this. A fishing machine. Unless they are going to take the fish to young or mate, they swallow in in a manner of a second or two.
My darling Snugs is completely immersed in focussed attention. I love this ability of cats where they wholeheartedly enter into this singleminded observation where no other distraction will impact or break it until they are ready. It probably was a bird or insect that was receiving this laser focus.
For the challenge on the group Smile on Saturday.

Again, trying photos that I'm not comfortable in making. Scenery? What madness is this?

Essai de focus stacking direct du boîtier à main levée mais avec l’appareil maintenu appuyé sur le mur. Dix prises empilées dans Photoshop. C’est d’ailleurs la seule chose que je sais faire dans ce logiciel car nous avons vu une démonstration récemment au club photo.
I tried focus stacking as my camera can do it. I chose 10 captures that were compiled in PS in post production. It’s about all I can do with PS by the way, having watched a demo at the photo club.

My tiny little helpers from little world gave me once more a helping hand. They did the presets for my last manual focus shooting. :)

Found some time, after taking down the Holiday Lights and Christmas Decorations, to scoot over to a local wildlife sanctuary; the trip paid off ;-)
Cooper’s Hawk:
Among the bird world’s most skillful fliers, Cooper’s Hawks are common woodland hawks that tear through cluttered tree canopies in high-speed pursuit of other birds.
Dashing through vegetation to catch birds is a dangerous lifestyle. In a study of more than 300 Cooper’s Hawk skeletons, 23 percent showed old, healed-over fractures in the bones of the chest, especially of the furcula, or wishbone.
A Cooper's Hawk captures a bird with its feet and kills it by repeated squeezing. Falcons tend to kill their prey by biting it, but Cooper’s Hawks hold their catch away from the body until it dies. They’ve even been known to drown their prey, holding a bird underwater until it stopped moving.
Once thought averse to towns and cities, Cooper’s Hawks are now fairly common urban and suburban birds. Some studies show their numbers are actually higher in towns than in their natural habitat, forests. Cities provide plenty of Rock Pigeon and Mourning Dove prey.
