There is no sin in being on the pathway; the spiritualists are wrong. But there is a sin in loving our road instead of our home; the materialists are wrong. There is no sin in being on the road, in being corporeal, in being finite, in being homo viator, in having responsibility for things outside, below, and now; there is only sin in settling for the lesser, and not letting it awaken an appetite for the greater.
-LITURGICAL MYSTICISM, DAVID W. FAGERBERG
We're still coated with ice and now 8 inches of snow, as well. A most beautiful way to end the year. This Red Twig Dogwood entirely coated in sparkling ice.
Concluding my look back over the last year.
From the end of November, the best birds were in East Sussex, although it took two separate visits to West Rise marsh to capture both the Long-tailed Duck and Slavonian Grebe (present from 9th November and 18th November respectively). But to conclude my review of the year, one more special bird (which in any other year could easily have been the Bird of the Year) and another fabulously confiding bird, this Desert Wheatear at Pevensey Bay from 28th November to 9 December.
What an incredible series of fabulous subjects. I only hope 2017 offers more of the same. So, wherever you are, I would like to wish you all a very happy new year.
Another luxury British car that has come to the end of its road....
This one was sitting on top of another car, hence the easy access to a low POV!

A last look at Saint Mary's lighthouse from my visit on Saturday. I'd taken my wife to nearby Sunderland and thought I had to drop in.

How is you weekend going? It’s been a great day yesterday. We got to escape the city limits for a while and go meet some new people up in Wisconsin. 3am start wasn’t fun at first. But after meeting my buddy Chris (@mywisconsin) we had a blast. We lucked out again with the unexpected whiteout over night and some blue hour fog. Holy Hill cathedral looked like it has celestial highlight. What do you think?
Thank you all for your comments and faves!

Time, such a precious commodity... I am so glad we have managed a short ride out of the city the other day. I wanted to capture some of the fall colors before all the leaves are knocked off the trees by the wind. It was a cool, but lovely evening. The light was great as well, so I got in a few shots. Hope you enjoy! Happy Friday, guys!
I do not do "lists" but thought in spite of lockdown's & a few health problems, I had a good bird year. So i counted up & found I had photographed 132 bird species. Had a good start to the year & garden lockdown was better than expected. My highlight has to be this Lammergeier. Who could have expected a bird of the high mountains to be in a flat Fenland field. Here it is digesting some road kill it had recently eaten in the field.
Macro Monday's and the theme of "Lids".
I left it a bit late to find my subject but while in a supermarket on this Monday morning I found these mini highlighter pens.
So when I finally got home I placed them on a white board and backlit by the bedroom window. I focused the scene to 3 inches on the longest side and set up the lids and also the pens. I then rotated the board so there was a diagonal across the scene and focus was on the lids.
Entrance to Las Rosas Cemetery in Puerto Varas... too bad I always find it closed! One way to get in only.

Ein abendliches Highlight auf der des Öfteren doch recht eintönigen Filsbahn ist zweifelsfrei der EC 112 (Klagenfurt Hbf - Frankfurt (Main) Hbf), welcher ab Salzburg im Taurus-Sandwich verkehrt und mit seinem österreichischen Wagenpark durchaus etwas her macht.
Immer wieder kommt dabei auch der ein oder andere Werbe-Taurus zum Zug, was im Voraus freundlicherweise sogar von den Österreichischen Bundesbahnen (ÖBB) im Internet öffentlich angekündigt wird - bei der Deutschen Bahn wohl leider unmöglich.
Für den 16. März 2015 kündigten die ÖBB die 1116 141 mit Siemens-Werbung vor jenem Zug an, was mehrere Fotografen auf die Nassachtalbrücke nahe Uhingen pilgern ließ.
