June 28th, 2016, it has been a great season for haying, the weather has been extremely favourable to the farmer this year, this being one of the few days we have actually had cloud.
Another day and another trip to Farmoor Reservoir in Oxfordshire but this time to spend more time looking for the 3 Greater Scaup Ducks.
This female Tufted Duck makes a splash while bathing.

The light on this looks slightly surreal, but just a couple of minutes before the arrival of this train the setting sun had dipped below the bank of cloud, the end of a weather front, and bathed the top of the station buildings in golden light, which is just still visible on the station tower and one chimney top, but with much foreground shadow. Very quickly though, the lighting was quickly more balanced for the composition, but the sky was still quite dramatic as DB Cargo 60059 'Swinden Dalesman' appeared and was throttled up through the station with a clear road ahead, disturbing the early evening peace of Lincoln City; the 17:13 Lindsey Oil Refinery to Kingsbury Oil Sidings on Thursday 21st September 2017.

Spent the past week taking the grader into the hills driving high on top of the ranges, making tracks.

Actual sky - not black and white
An amazing sky afternoon where the sky changed dramatically every 5-15 minutes. Starting with dull, soft grays to a basic sunny sky with clouds then back to grays. It began to build more interest, then this scene, which was followed by rain with wind shaking the car, then dramatic layers of smoky dark gray on top blending down to lighter grays and white and blue, followed by an amazing blue with all sorts of cloud shapes. And then it more or less repeated this cycle but this interesting curtain effect was unique to the day's events.

There have been very few new pics from me recently, for a variety of reasons. That changed today as I re-entered with great delight!
I have not as yet got excited about taking photos inside the house so I have made do by taking the camera to the supermarket! The sunset was great, the location a little less so.
Being active is a choice and one that leads to good health.
