Ponte Vecchio, Florence, Italy
With lockdown restrictions tighter than ever, I suspect many of us togs have been forced to dredge through our archives for lost gems or even rework a few old favourites.
I was chatting with Mark Waidson the other day on our WhatsApp group discussing the very subject. Our last big outing was February 2020… a week’s togging in the Isle of Skye. Although we all have plenty of images from there it’s been a sense of déjà vu for us with the high probability of us posting similar images for the same location from the same day, hence the archive dipping of late.
All this brings me to my posting… yes, I’ve posted this before, but I’ve reworked it now I know more about Photoshop and the Nik Collection. However, this is special to me on many fronts. Firstly, I just love a good bridge (it’s the engineer in me) and it’s been on my bridge bucket list for decades. Secondly, the year this was taken was my first year on Flickr and my first year with a decent SLR camera (no comments from you Nikon togs… you know who you are!). But more importantly, it’s given me the chance to meet people through photography and Flickr. I mention Mark’s name as he was one of the first togs I followed and it just so happened he was going to Florence the week before myself and Mrs R. Hence much swapping of plans and locations. It’s fair to say we might have very similar images in our streams.
So, here I am in my 7th year on Flickr… it’s had its ups and downs, as had all of us photography wise. But as long as Flickr stays afloat, I intend to stick with it and continue the journey with so many good friends and togs. Meetups are just around the corner and hopefully a biggie get together somewhere.
Cuiaba River
The Pantanal
Brazil
South America
This is a view of the shoreline of the Cuiaba River when you go to The Pantanal in September. The water level has dropped during the dry period until the banks of the river are exposed. Once the rains come, the water level will rise to the area above the brown dirt bank shown in the image. With the dry season, more of the animals need to come to the river to drink, and the animal sightings are more prevalent. Many jaguar sightings are observed when they lay down by the bank just under the trees. You can see at this point in the season many downed trees and branches are exposed in the middle of the river.
I want to thank all of my 2,650 followers and guests to my photo stream in helping me reach a milestone of FOUR MILLION views on my images since 2009. Thank you for your visits, comments, awards and choosing my images as favorites over the years. I appreciate it very much.
Black Vulture, Coragyps atratus, with cypress knees in the background. These are very common here—cleaning up last night’s roadkill in the neighborhood; following the larger Turkey Vultures, which have a better sense of smell, in a wide range across the prairie. Often see groups of 2 or 3, but a dozen or two gathered that morning on the small island just across the water to my left.
Happy Wing Wednesday!
It took a while....a looong while but finally we´re here xD
I am overwhelmed how many people in the world like my work. Every single follower, every single view, every single favorite and commentary mean so much to me. No joke!
I want to thank each of you from the bottom of my heart for this wonderful and overwhelming feedback & support.
Over all the years I was searching who I am in this community...thinking that I have to fit in somewhere but know I know I just have to be me. No copy of someone else.
And I´m greatful for every single one of you who accompanies me on this journey!

The chickens at Wright-Locke Farm know me well, and expect treats when I'm around. Above, Mr. Tuxedopants is leading the hens behind me as I make my way to the feed bin.
It's been years in the making, but thanks to everyone who followed me! I enjoy looking at your works, too!

❣️ Thanks to all my Follower and my great Sponsors ❣️
Followers are sometimes more in the spotlight than oneself. But just wait a little and everyone will be plunged into the darkness at nightfall.
Well damn. That's like, 20 times how many fingers I have!
Back when I hit 190 followers or so, a thought crossed my mind that I should do something more special when I hit 200, like host a contest or do a face reveal or something, but always postponed the plan, thinking that it's not going to happen any time soon, considering how inactive I have been lately.
But, well, here we are.
This quick build will have to suffice for now, maybe I'll even host a small contest or something later when I'm inspired. Or when I get to 300, haha.
Thank you, keep building and stay awesome!
Finnaly, we got 200 000 followers!
Thanks so much for all of you!
To this "big day" we passed a very long way, and I am very happy, that it has finally happened.
Now loading up to million :)))
I'd like to take the opportunity to thank my followers for the kind comments, faves, support and feedback. You guys are awesome!
