I finally managed to sneak down the Kukui Trail and found some nice clouds here at Waimea Canyon. Then the sun broke through clouds and cast some cool and interesting light over the landscape. After reviewing this photo, I wished I had taken out the 70-200 to pick the landscape apart piece by piece, but alas, Live and learn. :)
Thank you for taking the time to take a look at my photos and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!! Have a great day :)
If you have any questions about this photo or about photography in general, I will do my best to help, just post a comment or send me a Flickr mail and I will respond as quickly as possible.
I managed to get to Mote Park lake just in time to catch a few minutes of this early winter sunset - my first of this season. It was a very cold afternoon and the lake was frozen over as can be seen looking at the foreground.
Managed to get nice and close with the 2x on! Slightly cropped to straighten the image. Abberton reservoir.
Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea) I was stalking a little egret along the bank of our local reservoir when this heron suddenly burst out from the cover of the reeds in front of me. I just managed to get the camera on him but I don't know who was more surprised!
I wanted to photograph the Vienna Christmas Market in all its lit up glory, but work meeting ran late and only managed to make it there after everything had closed. Pesky work getting in the way of my photography - aarrgghh! So you get to see it after hrs...which is still pretty cool!
Managed to get this magpie that came to take advantage of a free feed !!

This part of the Pucks Glen path takes the walker towards a rocky outcrop that contains what looks like a face ... can you see it?.

I managed to visit Kangaroo Island during my trip to Adelaide for the opening of the ANZANG exhibition at the SA Museum which includes my "Stormlight & Stardust" image. This is from a bay on the island being belted by storms over the Southern Ocean. Next stop from the edge here is Antarctica! It's been a long while since I've been able to shoot any seascapes, a conscious effort to expand the portfolio in other areas.

I stare at my reflection in the mirror
Why am I doing this to myself?
Losing my mind on a tiny error,
I nearly left the real me on the shelf
No, no, no, no
Don't lose who you are, in the blur of the stars
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing,
It's okay not to be okay
Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart
Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising,
Just be true to who you are
and Tra, am not entirely sure, but I think i managed to anchor it 😉 ❤︎
Finally Managed to upload this pic!!
It is always the most fun to take pictures with You... Thank you my Friend for being You ..... Love you!!
sort of jumping ahead here and not following the chronological order of my photos but I think that’s ok because I wanted to mix it up a little.
We had just come off the back of a few days of wild weather, mind you, it had helped to create some interesting photographic conditions but none of which were all too pleasant.
None-the-less, that was behind us. For the first time the wind had all but dropped off and the skies weren’t looking menacing. Jake, Bruce Trent and I decided to venture down onto the shores Lake Pehoe to try and find something a little different. Before too long each of us had managed to scout out a composition we were pretty happy with and had settled in for the afternoon.
This was mine…
The rawness of Patagonia can be hard to capture in photographs. It feels untamed and real so I tried hard to find a way to carry that feeling across in this image.
There’s a behind the scenes video from this shoot, filmed on location shortly before the sun went down. Jump over to my facebook page at www.facebook.com/jaydaleyphotography to check it out.
View large and, as always, thanks for looking!
Managed to stop the car without the hawk immediately flying away - - a rare occurrence. Sun was pretty bright so a lot more dark shadows than you would like but otherwise a clear shot even after some cropping - - I'm glad my lens is finally sharp again after another round of micro-adjustments.
Red Tailed Hawk ((I believe)) - Minesing Swamp - Ontario
We both managed to get out together today, first time in 2 weeks that Daniel has left the house, which was great, really good to see it lifted his spirits. Hopefully do it more often. We met with a friend and had a coffee at Hardwick park and fed the birds, then went to Fishburn airfield and sat outside plane watching. Had a mini-shoot while we were there. Have a wonderful evening all. ❤️
Managed to get this shot of the iconic gate when there was almost no one around. It pays to get up early!!!
I somehow managed to frequently pass close to this spot for maybe 20+ years before realising there was a good photograph to be had. Strangely enough, exactly the same thing happened with another image I posted on Flickr just this morning. I guess, sometimes one doesn't need to search far afield - just stop close by and look carefully!

Managed a quick shot of the male Chaffinch that's been visiting our garden over the last couple of days. It only stays at the far back of the garden though. It’s perched on the shallow water trough. Taken through the window.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images.
It was whilst taking this photograph that I realised that my camera had lost its ability to change aperture and was stuck in f2/8, hence the shallow dof :( However I thought that it was still worthwhile taking this shot of the river in Pucks Glen running inder a number of fallen trees.

The Ripon Canal is located in North Yorkshire, England. It was built by the canal engineer William Jessop to link the city of Ripon with the navigable section of the River Ure at Oxclose Lock, from where boats could reach York and Hull. First used in 1773 and closed in 1956 consising of 3 locks over its 2.3 miles
In 1961, members of the Ripon Motor Boat Club formed the Ripon Canal Company Ltd, and gradually restored the canal up to Littlethorpe. Subsequently, the Ripon Canal Society spearheaded restoration, which was completed in 1996. It is now managed by the Canal & River Trust
Rouken Glen, managed to get a few shots today it's quite a hard place to get shots as dogs kids people going in the water like one after the other it's a wonder the birds get a chance to forage so was good to get a short time with these lovely birds.
Managed to get another one of those colds. So not much time to take pictures right now. But I'm heading down to the south coast at the weekend, so hopefully I will be able to get some different shots.
A large non-parasitic cuckoo endemic to the Indian Subcontinent. The bird is pretty large - maybe 40-45 cms and is quite famous for its beauty. This is also known as "Lipstick bird" for its reddish beak and beautiful eyelashes.
It habitat is the dry scrub land, forest edges and is often sighted on the ground hunting for insects. The birds are quite shy and behaviours are hard to predict - so it is tough to sight them at the same location again and again. On this day though, we hit the jackpot - spent an hour roughly with 2 birds and at times they got too close to get a full length shot. Luckily they were flying perch to perch continuously, so managed to get a few good flight shots.
Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.
Managed to capture a male Black Redstart today - my previous upload was the female of the species.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images.
I'll never be a wildlife photographer but could not resist sharing the cuteness of this beautiful red squirrel when I got the opportunity to see them at Pensthorpe Natural Park last week. I feel like I can identify with him, totally ignoring his salad and eating a cookie instead :)
Pensthorpe have 2 breeding pairs of red squirrels- many of the babies born here are released on the Isle of Anglesey as part of a managed release programme. You can read more about it (and see a lovely photo of a baby!) here:

Shot at only 120mm through a mesh fence and cropped more than anything should ever be cropped!!
Managed to get out for a shortish walk this morning. Started off in great light, which then got worse and worse. But at least I got out!
I just love Lavender.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :)
Managing a nest is challenging and the parents are regularly making flights to catch more insects and food. Here one of them fed some food to its chicks in the nest and is back another round. They are such efficient creatures that it appears that they don't take any rest at all. I still don't know if there are any differentiating marks that can help in identifying each swift uniquely.
The shot was incredibly challenging though due to the birds highly unpredictable flight pattern. I finally managed to get a decent shot. I shot this while it flew out of its nest under the bridge.
Thanks for all your views and feedback.
Haven't managed to get out with my camera for a couple of months for various reasons, this morning I went out with the intention of using my newly acquired Olympus OM2n film camera but I took the wrong tripod mount with me, so ended up using the EM10 instead.
Managed to get back to the poppy field the weekend and it was full of photographers this time!
Had a touch of lens envy ;-)
I managed to find some decent wifi to go online and find some new stuff!

I managed to get this shot of that rarest variety of Dwarf Elephant, the Malachite! You do not see many of them in the wild and as they are only a few inches tall at best, they are liable to be missed except when they emerge from the undergrowth! Their numbers are dwindling particularly as they are often trodden upon and killed being so small.
Malachite is a semi-precious stone. It’s a coloured mineral with attractive bands of darker and lighter green making it sought after for the making jewellery of all sorts and figures. It’s chemical name is Calcium Carbonate Hydroxide.

In which all of the books have messy piled up, and thrown away are.
It is the graveyard of knowledge.
It is diary forgotten.
It is the story nobody knows.

Finally managed to get close up to our rather large visitor to Attenborough in the lovely afternoon winter sun, it's been several years since I have had the chance to photograph a Great White Egret and the size of the these birds still amazes me, when standing upright they actually look down on the passing swans not many birds can do that, lets hope it stays around for much longer.
I managed to get up a local Ben on Boxing Day. Fortunately just after sunrise there was a break in the clouds. The sidelight was beautiful as the next snow storm was coming in. I finally got a shot of Lochan Balloch I was pleased with.
I just managed to squeezed both of them in at prime focus on my C11 telescope. However, I found wrestling with trying to remove the light pollution gradients quite a challenge on this occasion.
Canon EOS 6D @ ISO 6400.
150x15 sec unguided subs with calibration frames added.
Celestron C11 at f10.
Tracked on a Skywatcher AZ-EQ6 mount.
Imaged from suburbia.
Processed in APP and finished off in LR.
an idea Ephran came up with ages back and we only managed to get photos just the other night.
its out of my norm of pretty faces ....but Ephran has a great eye for detail and a wonderful imagination, so i don't hesitate when he wants to dress me up !
He mostly played with the photography, but i did one shot of my own.
Thank you for a wonderful night of your company Eph.

At the end of a night shoot in Ardentinny car park I thought I take advantage of the light from the full moon to take the long exposure :)
