Yesterday was a fitting introduction to winter with driving rain, 90kmph wind gusts and plummeting temperatures for most of the afternoon and evening. The result of this weather was the rooftop carpark at a shopping centre with plenty of puddles for me to photograph at a low angle. As you can see the darkening cloud presages more rain but at least the wind has largely dropped to something more manageable.
A good day to catch up with a friend for lunch. HCT
A reworked image of the Coupe de Ville from earlier this year … seeing as my inspiration has gone awol I thought I’d vent my frustration on some innocent pixels.
Subtle is NOT my middle name ;)
When life gets busy, you may not have time to do some simple things that make you feel better. For me that is a photowalk. And even if that Saturday morning a photowalk was not the objective, at least I grabbed my camera with me and snapped some photos. After all, a walk downtown Boston is not something I do as frequently as I used to. I grew up in a big city and sometimes I do miss (a little bit) that big city feeling. Not that I would prefer to deal with traffic, pollution, increased costs etc. But I don't mind spending a few hours there during a quieter Saturday or Sunday morning..
Photo take outside New England Aquarium. In frame you can see the famous Custom House Tower with its beautiful clock. The original buildig was completed in 1849 with the tower being added in 1915.

Diesel indicated to me that he would like to take the next southbound train to NYC. Why ? Because he wants to poop in Central Park. I told him no and reminded him that he just pooped two blocks away in Waryas Park, city of ~ Poughkeepsie, NY
Not quite as solemn a sky as on my previous couple of shots from Northumberland, though the wider shot would reveal a mass of cloud. However, I actually saw a glimmer of sunlight on this particular morning on my visit to Lindisfarne.
I’d gone to the island for sunrise but this particular shot was taken on my way back across the causeway, which is susceptible to flooding at high tide. The refuge hut is there just in case people haven’t heeded the tide warnings that are displayed at each end of the causeway.
I decided to strap on my 100-400 lens and shoot close the the ground with the R8 in order to compress the view, and to get the slither of light between the grey clouds and the road. This was my first real landscape outing with the R8. I also had my R5 with me with a wider lens attached, but I wanted to test out the R8’s abilities; it didn’t disappoint😁.

Low angle close-up framing of a bright sunflower blooming. Sunflowers are the most cheerful flowers and make you feel like smiling when they open up to greet the sun.
A high-contrast, black and white close-up of a northern water snake, highlighting the rough, heavily-keeled scales that define its rugged form. The snake's head is sharply in focus in the immediate foreground, its round pupils and sleek, oval-shaped head blending into a neck that leads to a body of dark, alternating bands and blotches trailing toward the center rear.

I am grateful for your continued support and appreciate every view, fave, and comment!
It had been raining heavily in Hoi-An prior to my arrival in this beautiful little town, in fact I was lucky to avoid some floods. However that rain did afford some nice photographic opportunities like this amazing reflection.
New life emerging in the deep woods. A beautiful moment of natural backlighting illuminating a young sapling against the dark forest floor.

Walking through the streets of Palma de Mallorca in July you can't be sure whether you truly are in Spain or rather in Germany or England. But if you leave the crowded places and turn into smaller alleys and streets you find Spain, away from tourists and shops full of cheap souvenirs. And that are the places I love to discover.
Thanks for your criticism and as always, favs, likes and comments are gratefully appreciated!
A brief but enjoyable visit to Budapest and an explore at this iconic abandoned Powerplant control room.

La rue du sanglier débouche sur une vue des plus agréables de la capitale alsacienne.
Fun fact : Le nom de la rue est dû à une corruption linguistique, aucun sanglier n'est jamais passé par ici (depuis au moins avant le camp romain).

Taken on my first morning of a week on the Lleyn Peninsula, North West Wales, this was unfortunately only one of two mornings where we actually got a sunrise.
I’d already taken a few shots of this fishing boat, but as the sun came up I was taken by the shadows being cast by the anchor.
I decided to go very low, close and wide so as to over emphasise the anchor, and so used my Platypod, so that the camera was virtually on the sand. Naturally I bracketed and stacked for the shoot.

A green-winged teal lifts from the winter marsh, its wings briefly mirrored in the still water below. For a moment, sky and reflection become one — motion suspended between what is and what is remembered.
I haven't done a water-droplet, freeze-the-action motion shot in a while. I used to do them in a controlled environment in my sink. But this one is in the wild at a waterfall in New York.
I saw a repeated drop at this one spot near the falls, and since I had my tripod with me, I set up a low-angle shot. I fired several shots before I got one with a drop in mid-air and the ripples from an earlier drop.
This was shot at the Artist Falls in New York. Stay tuned for more photos from this location of water in action.
After I processed the frame, it reminded me so much of a scene from the opening of the PBS show 3-2-1 Contact. Although I think I kind of missed the focus by a little. Oh well.
