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.
(Somateria spectabilis) My main target species of bird was the King Eider. I managed to get a great view of this stunning bird (and its mate) off the end of the pier next to where the ship was docked in Longyearbyen.

'Jennie' Wren seen at the Cromwell Bottom Local Nature Reserve, near Brighouse.
The first time I have managed to get a decent shot of a Wren and bless it stayed quite still for a good few seconds .....

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.
Canon 1DsMkIII, 16-35mm 2.8L, GND filter, single exposure.
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!!
This is a shot of the south end of Loch Eck taken from a hilltop overlooking Stratheck. From this viewpoint I can see 2 forest tracks that I regularly walk/cycle and also one of my favourite roads to drive :)
On how I managed to diffuse a potentially explosive situation.
I was sat on a bench approximately 50 metres across from this family and noticed their reflections in the puddle. I took about five or six shots and noticed with each one the boy with his hands in his pockets became more and more agitated.
He eventually marched over to me and demanded to know why I was taking photographs of his family.
I smiled politely and assured him I wasn't taking photographs of his family, I was taking photographs of the puddle.
He thought for a moment, I could see he was in a mucking fuddle, then he said, Oh, that's alright then and calmly walked away.
As did I before the penny dropped!
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
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!
The super vet is a mythical creature that has always managed to elude photographers for ages. For the ancient pet owners the the super vet was such a sacred being that its name was not uttered in vain. The super vet have been called by many nicknames one is ”Mike”.
After spending a night in a hideout at a secret location with a super long tele 35/2.8 lens payed off. All of a sudden he appeared doing his morning hygiene before going into surgery. I got lucky and got one sharp image of the shy being.
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.
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.
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.
Atlantic puffin (Fratercula Arctica)

Yorkshire Wildlife Trust managed coastal cliffs
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. :)
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 capture this Fulmar as it flew to its nest in a shady gorge which provided this lovely dark background.
Taken on the Isle of Lunga, Scotland.
As always, thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving any comments or faves, they are very much appreciated.
Here we have another bird that has been eluding me for a while folks, but managed a few of this guy.
Early shoot today and will catch up later.
Thank you for stopping by everyone, and have a great day.
An ugly librarian manage his library.
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.
I wander the sea of words that became apart.

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 this image while kayaking, so it probably means more to me than to any viewer. It's one thing to be standing on land or a stable pontoon boat, it's another to be in a kayak blowing in the wind. I give myself a couple of extra points and felt obliged to pat myself on the back. Ouch, my elbow hurts! (Pandion haliaetus)
Blue tit on a rose bush.
After a week of dull, grey days, the sun came out, this morning!
I managed to grab a wee half hour in the garden; lots to do, today. I filled the seed and nut feeders and the wee birdies descended. Lots of them use this this rose bush as a scoping/landing/eating site.
Lovely to see the sunshine in the garden,
In my garden,

“Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun…
…What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day.”

Managed to get a shot of this Long-tailed Tit with nesting materials before he disappeared into the trees. Taken on a local walk this afternoon.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images.
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 was so lucky to meet this amazing pink grasshopper - twice! The second time I had my camera with me, and I managed to take some good photos of this quite rare-colored insect.
On a drive back from Walton-on-Naze I passed through Thorpe-le-Soken when a Barn Owl fly over the car into a small grassed area with a few posts that had been staked in the ground for trees I presume! I did the well practiced emergency 3 point turn and somehow managed to pull up along the side of it without it flying off. I Already had the passenger side window down to take some photos and video. It did move from one post to another, this being the closest one it landed on to me. Got some shots of it taking off from the post as well, which I’ll post soon. Right place, right time! What a great experience.
We managed to see a bit of sunshine on our last Norfolk trip and did a short walk from Morston Quay to Blakeney Quay.

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 :)
Managed to stop a take a patch of daisies that has started to cover the bank of the roadside on the way to my dads a couple of weeks back.
Managed an early dart off nights ( first job and knock for years, remember those? ) to meet up with some local togs for another well organised K&F Concept workshop/bit of a jolly. They are always good fun with various pieces of K&F Concept gear available to try out. I’ve got my eye on the natural night filter which really is top notch.
Conditions were fairly cloudy with the odd gap in the cloud as it began to get light and we made our way out to the S.S Denham, roughly a mile off the coast of New Brighton/Wallasey beach.
The S.S Denham is only visible at very low tides and is an interesting subject to shoot. We got lucky with the gaps in the cloud and were treated to a brief but intense sunrise looking back towards New Brighton, The Mersey and the giraffes of the Seftongetti.
As the sun got higher we moved around to the bow to capture some minimal images.
Jasper rarely stays put when I want to photograph him. Usually he sees the camera pointed in his direction and turns his back or pretends to see something to chase and runs off.
Today he didn't seem to mind and I managed to get a few shots.
