The Shelbourne Hotel is a famous hotel situated in a landmark building on the north side of St Stephen's Green, in Dublin, Ireland.
Creditons Parish Church, more in the style of a small cathedral than a mere church. I tried something different this time - taking 3 photos for a vertorama, starting right at ground level stacked together in Photoshop. The full formal name of the parish church is: Church of the Holy Cross and the Mother of Him who Hung Thereon. The site was chosen for building a cathedral as early as the 10th century although the first cathedral did not survive through the centuries with a few rebuilds and modifications since then. The current form has been established in the 15th century. So lots of history on that site!

…Okay, I know. That’s supposed to be “Over Hill, Over Dale…!” :^) Anyway, this is a shot of some clover on my front lawn being lit by low-angle light about the time that the mosquitos started making their presence known. I was out testing my back button focus on a D750… and think that I’ve finally worked the bug out of it.

She was hunting in a distant field when I first located her. For a brief moment I got distracted and I lost her completely. However, she was following a ditch between two hills, so I calculated her path of movement and came back to another trail where I thought I might find her. Sure enough, after 30 mins, I suddenly hear the ground squirrels screeching. As I look she came running down the hill chasing the squirrels.
I am not much familiar with bobcats yet, so I don't know whether she is inexperienced or not. But I never saw her catching a single squirrel in her numerous attempts. However, my estimate of her path was precise enough that I did not need to move, just needed to lie down for this image. I was also prepared for this situation, ready with the proper camera settings and lens.
She looks at me, nonchalantly cross the road, and at that moment I got distracted again. Three bikers came rushing down behind me with loud talks. I needed to move from the middle of the trail. So I lost her again, but for a brief moment.
I will continue with this bobcat and it's evening prowl. At the same time tell the story as it unfolded. It was an evening of learning, frustration and observation of bobcat-human interactions.

This morning, on the first day of spring, the sun was shining bright through the trellis on the edge of this carport. It was warm and breezy, a perfect spring day in Adelaide.

Thanks for looking!
They start to jiggle their green leaves, lifting their gaze upward.
When the clouds are right below their yellow heads, there is a sudden silence.....

It's pollen time for me :D

He did not like the camera, he did not understand, what I had in mid, but, he was too proud to run away, so he reluctantly and mostly alert, posed for the camera. Sirkeci Train Station

For this shot I was leaning out of the gameviewer using the display of my camera to get as low as possible.

An Iberian Green Woodpecker (male) pauses at the edge of a hidden pool, head tilted skyward after a refreshing drink. Captured from a low perspective, his striking plumage stands out against the natural backdrop.
Only 100 meters away the Trier christmas market attracts thousands of tourists. But this small backstreet is in peace and quiet.

That's Teignmouth pier - unfortunately it seems like much of the pier will be demolished in the near future because no financial support to do the necessary reconstruction could be found. A shame really as this is one of the landmarks of the South Devon coast!

This macro-focused image captures a stately American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) in high detail, perched prominently atop a weathered log. The amphibian's moist, olive-green skin is mottled with dark brown patterns, and its large, golden iris glows under soft, diffused light.
The log itself is blanketed in a lush, velvet-like layer of emerald green moss that retains droplets of water from a recent mist. Adding a touch of new life to the composition, a single, delicate green sprig with a few tiny leaves emerges from a crack at one end of the log, providing a soft vertical counterpoint to the bullfrog’s heavy, grounded presence. The background is a soft bokeh of swampy greens and muted blues, keeping the focus entirely on the textures of the frog and its mossy throne.
