Thank you very much for your comments and faves, regretfully, I am finding it increasingly difficult to reply to your comments, because of my very limited time on the internet, due to constant power interruptions in South Africa. I do read and appreciate every one of them, however! Thanks again!!

You just have those days where you get stuck on seeing something with every frame. Today was faces. Everywhere, I saw faces. In this shot alone, I saw three. distinct faces, can you see them too?

Entrance to Central Library and Mississauga Celebration Square
Thirty birds gather on and around a white steel tower and cupola that is an artistic replica of the tower that tops the historic Council House built 132 years ago on the New Credit reserve in Hagersville – the land the Mississauga people moved to in 1847 from their ancestral home on the Credit River in what is now known as the City of Mississauga.
Perched on and around the tower sit thirty birds, cast in bronze and painted in vivid colours. The birds are portraits of avian citizens in the region, both local and migratory – interpretations of drawings done by local residents and members of the New Credit First Nation community, of actual birds seen in backyards, parks and walkways within the community.
Spreading the invitation to the diverse local community to give special attention to the wildlife that share the living space of the city is a method of passing on Indigenous concepts of philosophy, respect and living in balance with all of creation.
CSX ST70AH (SD70ACe-T4) #8903 and 8902 wait for something to happen at Mulberry, FL, just north of the heart of the Bone Valley. Unfortunately, nothing much happened. This pair ran light back to Mosaic's phosphate production facility at Bartow after sunset, the only move I saw in two days.
These two units are apparently part of an order of ten, numbered 8900-8909, and set up at Waycross before being sent to south Florida.
How do we know it's a female bee? Well the bees who gather nectar and pollen, pretty much always are female bees. The males are stay at home dads who watch over and tend to housekeeping at there hives. Great life.
How rare is it to find three white Cabbage Sulphur Butterflies hanging out in the pink blossoms... and they are all turned in the same direction.
I see the world differently than non-photographers... this reflection in the window of an optician in Örebro made me wonder about how accurate my 'vision' actually is.

Pictures can decive how the real world are, even our own eyes can be decived by distance, angle, light etc, How high do you think this waterfall are ? Well nobody have dared to guess, so I will tell, the Waterfall are 93 meters, 305 feet.
"How much is enough?" ;-)))

Hey team how are we all doing?
It be throwback Thursday today and I've finally finished processing a photo taken 2 weeks ago from my trip to Sydney and the Blue Mountains.
Renown for its unique architecture this crazy critter being the Sydney Opera House continues to fascinate and inspire architects all around the world, or so I'm led to believe. This photo was shot from the Milson's Point side with a 70-300mm telephoto lens on a dodgy tripod.
The processing was done like this; firstly the photo was taken into Lightroom where the massively blinding highlights and whites were dulled down. The shadows were raised up a tad too as some parts of the photo were too dark. Then I played around with the colours using the HSL panel until I got the feel that I liked. I aimed to contrast the bluish sky with the orangey/yellow lights inside the building. I cropped the image and fixed up the horizon to make it straight. I then brought the photo into Photoshop and did some noise reduction using Imagenomic's Noiseware Professional software. Finally I cleaned off the image by using a combination of the clone stamp tool, spot healing brush and the brush tool. The most challenging part of this process was to get the image right in camera with the nasty gale forced winds of that night.
Hope you enjoy this one, and as always feel free to use this image in your videos, your website, you blog, print it out, remix it or do whatever you wish with it as per the CC licence.
All the best my people, don't stop shooting.
We passed these old farm buildings every day on the way to the rental house - fence falling down, holes in the roofs, windows boarded up, and a relatively new looking truck parked in the driveway. Somehow even in disrepair it looked magical (and definitely Halloween worthy) But all I could hear in my head was a song my mom used to sing - How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm
After they've seen Paree'
sometimes you dont walk away with the shot you wanted, and no...... i wasnt out to catch this guys pistachios.......but thats what he presented me with
