A Gray Kingbird launches from a perch after a dragonfly.

An Osprey launches itself into the air from a dead palm tree.

Any springtime visit to Grasslands National Park is almost certain to be a lark. Oops, I mean any visitor. Well, any little brown and yellow, winged visitor. I've never seen more Meadowlarks in one place and certainly never more of these constantly moving, fast flying Horned Larks.

This church (on the fortress island of Suomenlinna, near Helsinki) was originally Russian Orthodox, but at a later point it was converted to Lutherian and its onion domes were knocked down, leaving it looking a little bit odd. It reminded me of a rocket on a launch pad.

One of the first balloons to launch at the annual Art & Air Show in Albany, Oregon. ( Best Viewed Large)

Fourth of July celebration in our neighborhood and the neighbor launches a luminary.

Jasper got the codes for Christmas and he's launching a full-on frisbee attack. Canine missile launched! Granted this is an ugly backdrop but thought the impressive leap was worth posting.

Brants at the same time I was...the next shot was her coming back around the corner towards me.

Launching from trees is one place I can get some good action shots! What a wingspan!

The modern elevator in the Old Town Hall with Astronomical Clock in Prague. With it's modern architecture it is a strong contrast to the building. In the picture the elevator is moving.

 

This picture was shot without a tripod, just with the IBIS of my Canon R6, I was impressed.

Creating memorable moments is something we strive to do on our photo workshops. During an outing this spring, we were getting ready to wind up a fun Milky Way shoot deep in the Utah desert. A 5% moon was just starting to rise when all of the sudden we saw a line of lights traveling quickly in the sky overhead. These lights originated from a single point and proceeded to follow each other all the way to the horizon. We had never seen anything like it! The lights just kept coming and coming. Meanwhile, I decided I'd better take a photo to document it! After we got back, we learned this was a launch of some Starlink satellites by SpaceX. If you zoom in on the photo, you can see the little hooks in the light trails from where they were launched off the rocket. Moments like this will live in our memories forever!

Taken at the end of November last year when we were lucky enough to have about 100 Bohemian Waxwings feeding in a residential Norwich street.

 

They were a bit more skittish than Waxwings I have encountered before - decending en masse from the overlooking trees for no longer than 30 seconds at a time of frenzied feeding before returning to safety.

Just to reassure that I've not been completely idle of late, but just focussing on street photography as a different challenge! As a result I'm part of a street photography exhibition with 3 fellow photographers, Becky Frances, Joe O'Malley and Kevin Newman. We'll each be displaying 10 prints and for those of you who kindly visited my last exhibition, it's at the same venue, until mid-Jan 2018, but it would be great to see you at the launch, all welcome!
