I just love being in such places, watching the coming and going of people, making their choices of food (wonderful options in this place), meeting friends for a lunch together or walking around with their children.
A market is always a lovely experience.
From mountain Ulriken you can see the bus station, Kode Art museum of Bergen, and also famous Bryggen. Really a nice place to stay around.
I was very lucky with this shot. I was out with the camera taking sunset photos and then suddenly this rainbow popped out. It lasted about a minute and was gone. I wasn't in a great place for a composition and this was the best I could do. It was a wicked rainbow.
It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
Oscar Wilde.
Last of the series but not the least. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them. Thank you all for your kind thoughts.
Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854 – 30 November 1900) was a prolific Irish writer who wrote plays, fiction, essays, and poetry. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. He is best remembered for his epigrams and plays, the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, as well as the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death.
Wilde's parents were successful Anglo-Irish, Dublin intellectuals. Their son became fluent in French and German early in life. At university, Wilde read Greats; he proved himself to be an outstanding classicist, first at Dublin, then at Oxford. He became known for his involvement in the rising philosophy of aestheticism, led by two of his tutors, Walter Pater and John Ruskin. After university, Wilde moved to London into fashionable cultural and social circles.
As a spokesman for aestheticism, he tried his hand at various literary activities: he published a book of poems, lectured in the United States and Canada on the new "English Renaissance in Art", and then returned to London where he worked prolifically as a journalist. Known for his biting wit, flamboyant dress and glittering conversation, Wilde became one of the best-known personalities of his day. At the turn of the 1890s, he refined his ideas about the supremacy of art in a series of dialogues and essays, and incorporated themes of decadence, duplicity, and beauty into his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890). The opportunity to construct aesthetic details precisely, and combine them with larger social themes, drew Wilde to write drama. He wrote Salome (1891) in French in Paris but it was refused a licence for England due to the absolute prohibition of Biblical subjects on the English stage. Unperturbed, Wilde produced four society comedies in the early 1890s, which made him one of the most successful playwrights of late Victorian London. Source Wikipedia.
Masked Lapwing chick makes its first appearance carefully hiding behind one parent. The other parent was ensuring this was a long shot by dangerous swooping, screeching and generally deterring the photographer. This chick was the only one to emerge from the four eggs in the nest. There were no eggs, shell or signs of them remaining which suggests that a predator large enough to carry an egg and ward off the parents was responsible. One survivor is a common outcome of this annual event in my Gold Coast hinterland home garden. A false spring a few weeks ago caused unseasonal breeding by this pair of young adults the subsequent cold weather may have reduced egg survival. Normal spring, if there is such a thing during climate change, is still months away.
I did not touch it but I think it is a porcelain model either to be used in advertising or a child’s toy or even maybe a wedge for the gate. Now you are being silly Mike! Anyway, it makes an interesting street subject and allows me to play with depth of field. Happy photography moment.
a fleeting moment, stretched wide in laughter, spilling into the air like sunlight breaking free from clouds. her hands clasped in a pause between bursts, the soft blur of the world behind her, the bokeh glowing like tiny stage lights for an unscripted performance.

Drove down a gravel road wondering where it would lead me and then at the very end, this was waiting for me. I had no idea I would find a beautiful waterfall.

The greatest poem ever known
Is one all poets have outgrown:
The poetry, innate, untold,
Of being only four years old.
