Tore myself away from printing yesterday to wander along the edge of a deep canyon where I found scenes of leaves caught in shadowed pools turned to ice. I blame the many hours spent as a child finding faces, animals, and other strange likenesses in cloud formations for my tendency toward finding juxtaposed curiosities between image and title. And I blame this behaviour partly on the small planes that often looped the sky with ads for sugary drinks, cigarettes, and chocolate across the sky of Los Angeles.
This male Cape May Warbler is a long way from its wintering grounds in the Caribbean. A mega rarity, first sighting of this species in this part of British Columbia.

After a little incident the the other week when he decided to snap the long line and end up in the middle of nowhere on a snowy hillside wrapped round a tree and spending a rather cold night alone (not that he was bothered in the least it seemed) I've invested in one of these little gadgets. .. all I can say is wow! (pitpat) I suppose it also means my other half can always see where I am ... and be impressed with my fortitude when she sees me zooming up and down the hills!! :)

We went to the Death Valley in California with the goal to experience the sailing stones on the Racetrack Playa at new moon. Before dark we scouted interesting stones on the playa and marked their GPS location. It was very windy at night, and we waited in the car for the wind to die down. It did not. I decided to go out on the playa in this condition; I found the rocks via GPS location. I used a dimmed-down warm-color LED floodlight to illuminate the black night. In addition I used a cold-color headlight from a low vantage point to illuminate the sailing stone.
Sailing stones are a geological phenomenon where rocks move and inscribe long tracks along a playa (dry lakebed) without human or animal intervention. Instead, rocks move when large ice sheets a few millimeters thick floating in an ephemeral winter pond start to break up during sunny days. These thin floating ice panels, frozen during cold winter nights, are driven by wind and shove rocks at up to 5 m/min across the muddy playa. More details.
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully pulled the curves.

Birds are moving, never know what can show up, this mourning saw the Eagle hit the water ...no shot .... then land in a nearby tree. After the shot I noticed the bands on his legs and then saw the transmitter on his back...crazy..
I have the band number and sent photos to NYSDEC hopefully get some info, would be nice to know !
