The picture on my photostream with the most views is of this little birch tree, taken last June. Despite not adhering to photography rules, it appeared on Explore Front Page and gained over 5,000 views in a very short time. I'm not sure whether this latest capture from last weekend shows an improvement in my skills but at least it shows the changing seasons in Skye.

Mountain Goat kid and its buddy, a yearling, on the edge of their world atop Mount Evans, Colorado. The yearling seemed like a good buddy to all the kids in this group, playing with them and watching them while the nanny goats foraged.
Haven't been doing any photos since my other computer broke down, now I have my CS5 back on my new one I need to get back into the game again. Picked this 5D MKII up at a savers thrift store for $40.00. This is a completely new learning curve from my Nikon's.
when I was a child I asked my mum to teach me how to knit. Then I quickly forgot. A few years ago I used the internet to teach myself once more.

“I’m sure the man is becoming slower and more uncertain with every occasion he has to use that picture taking thingy with three legs.” Said Posh Bear smiling as he watched the picture taker set up.
“Yes, Posh, it will be a relief when I don’t do this ever again.” Said Sky.
“Are you going to refuse then, Sky, when he does this next time?” Asked Barnaby in awe.
“No, Barnaby, but I probably won’t be here. I have been talking to Ellie and she was telling me that I should get myself “edicated”. So, that is what I might just do.”
“I think you mean educated, Sky.” Said Posh Bear.
“That as well, I think. I want to be so clever that I can talk to the buzzy things.”
“Anyone can talk to the buzzy things, Sky, it is just a shame they don’t seem to understand what bears say.” Added Bertie, yawning at the thought of all that learning.
“How do you think you are going to do that, Sky? I mean, learn things like talking to buzzy things.” Asked Barnaby.
“It is very easy actually, Barnaby, you just need to know where to go and what sort of things you want to learn.”
“Interesting, so, where do you go, Sky?”
“Ellie says it is a big place lots of walks away and is called a universal, I think, and there you can get all the leans that you want.”
“Wowsers, Sky, that sounds very good. So, you only need to ask them for learns on buzzy things and they give them to you and you come back edicated?” said Barnaby.
“Not quite, Barnaby, but very close. Ellie was saying that this place has lots and lots of learns, so whatever you wanted to learn you just press one of those buttons the man has on his picture viewing thingy and all the learns you want come tumbling down before you. I think.”
“Wowsers and double Wowsers, Sky, that sounds amazing.” Said Bertie getting excited.
“Doesn’t it just.” Replied Posh Bear smiling.
“What do you do with all these learns once you have them, Sky? I mean you can’t just carry them around with you in a bag and if you did, well, how you would find the one you need when you wanted it?” Asked Barnaby scratching his head with his paw. “And, how would you know what you needed if you didn’t know what the learn was about in the first place?”
“Simple, Barnaby, when I get the learns about buzzy things, I’ll also look for a button thingy that shows one how to store them and find them again. These places don’t just have learns about buzzy things; you know?”
“You’re so clever, Sky, I wish I was clever like you.” Said Barnaby full of admiration of his best friend.
“Thank you, Barnaby, and soon I’ll be even more cleverer and then ever cleverer still on top of that.”
“Sky, it doesn’t quite work out like that. I think that Ellie got it slightly wrong.” Said Posh Bear softly.
“What do you mean, Posh? Ellie said she knew.” Replied Sky looking slightly worried.
“The places are called Universities and are for hoomans, not us bears. Also, hoomans are taught what they wish to know by other hoomans called professors who in turn were taught all they know many sleeps before. It isn’t instant, these things take lots and lots of sleeps and is often a total waste of time, because after all that learning the hooman doesn’t put it to use.”
“So, how do us bears get learns, so we can be clever?” Asked Barnaby.
“We use life to learn things, Barnaby, like Sky just now for he has learned a big lesson in who to learn from. Elephants are very clever at elephant things but they don’t understand bear things. If you want to know bear things then you should always ask an older bear.”
Sky looked sad as he thought about what Posh had said but then he quickly brightened up.
“Posh, as an old bear, can you teach me how to speak with the buzzy things please?”
“No Sky, but I can tell you this, watch the buzzy things and learn what they do and then we’ll all be the wiser for what you learn. In the meantime, everyone should try and smile and then we can share that big jar of honey that I have put by, for after the man is finished.”
“Think honey.” Whispered Sky to Bertie and Barnaby and they both forced a smile.
I'm going insane here!
If anyone knows of a good tutorial on shadows on wall etc please don't hesitate :)))
Come ariete immaginario
apro un varco nelle mura.
Abbandono la città;
me ne vado alla ventura.
Cerco isole deserte
dove covano i gabbiani,
là per ore starò inerte
senza l'ansia del domani......

A University building on a Sunday.
I'm not even sure what this building is or does...
It might make power.

When I found my first green tiger beetles (Cicindela campestris) I was astonished to see how fast they were running , but pretty soon I managed to at least get some decent photos of them even though I was nowhere near 1:1 magnification.
Practice makes perfect though so eventually I figured out how to get close so this is a shot taken using the Canon MP-E65mm lens set to 2.2:1 magnification which I would have considered ridiculously close at the beginning.
