I used to spend hours swinging as a child. I miss the flights of fancy I went on, miss how the rest of the world ceased to exist in the exhilarating rush of wind and ideas. I think it's the closest most of ever get to flying like a bird.

Well it is my first attempt to stack a dozen shots to get the focus down the neck, so it is hit and miss, should have went with more.

I found myself in a small lagoon where this Great Egret was fishing. No one was around to distract the bird and I was able to approach slowly enough not to disturb it. I was in the water, kneeling, trying to get my lens right over the surface of the water, which created this lovely effect in the foreground. It caught this little fish in an instant and an instant later, it was gone. (Casmerodius albus) (Sony a1, 200-600 lens @ 600mm, f/6.3, 1/6400 second, ISO 640)
This little hedgehog traveled alongside me by the boardwalk for a while, so I decided to capture the moment. On a grey and windy day, there wasn't much else to photograph, but this encounter made it all worthwhile.
Mural entitled 'To Melbourne' by artist Steen Jones, Duckboard Place, Melbourne.
You usually dry off on a duckboard, but it rained so much the day I took this image I was about as far away from being dry as it is possible to be.
From our Sunday trip to Dawlish. This is the beach where we found all those pieces of polished green glass from the previous upload. It's a nice bit of rugged coastline. Dawlish is known for the railway passing just at the shoreline and there are spectacular images of waves crashing over the passing trains. One of the railway tunnels can be seen in the background. There are some nice sea stacks lining that bit of coast, some of which can also be seen in the background.

Captured from a low angle, this composition highlights mushrooms with distinct patterns and textures, enhanced by soft daylight illuminating their surfaces, revealing the intricate details of their caps and stems.
Taken for the Crazy Tuesday 'low angle' theme (2-jun-2026).
This fantastic mural is on a building in Fielding, Manawatu, NZ.

Early morning looking over the Forth towards Edinburgh - the little mound you can see on the horizon is Arthurs seat, with Edinburgh Castle to the right.
As the sun peaks over the horizon, it sounds a bit like this
Red-breasted merganser courtship.
I took it here in Ontario.

A striking low-angle shot, emphasizing the height and grandeur of the ancient structures against the vast blue sky.
The towering obelisk on the right and the colossal statue fragment on the left create a strong diagonal line, drawing the eye upwards and adding depth to the scene. The framing by the surrounding stone structures further enhances the sense of scale and enclosure. The large weathered stone structures on the left, possibly parts of colossal statues or temple pylons, frame the scene. These ruins hint at the grand scale of the ancient temple complex and the artistry of the period.
The bright overhead sunlight rays create harsh shadows and highlights, visibly flaring from the top center, indicating a direct light source and adding a dramatic effect to the sky. This strong contrast accentuates the textures of the ancient stone.
The obelisk symbolized a connection between the earthly and divine realms.
The composition highlights the monumental scale and enduring presence of these ancient artifacts.

Have a fun Sunday!
Caught a quiet moment with this male Goosander (Common Merganser) drifting through the shallows. I really liked how the foreground tree trunk and the overhanging branches created a natural frame, drawing the eye right to the bird. The water was calm enough to catch a nice reflection of his rusty-white plumage and iridescent green head.
