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.
Managed to get nice and close with the 2x on! Slightly cropped to straighten the image. Abberton reservoir.
Managed to catch this really nice sunset just before it got dark and consider myself very lucky to get this as it was heavy overcast most of the day and got this brief break in the cloud cover at just the right time.
Managed to get this magpie that came to take advantage of a free feed !!

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!!
Was in Udaipur for meetings with the TNC India Team - that started early and ended late but managed a few mornings to sneak out before the sun came up for some photography.
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!
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?.

More scenes from the walk can be seen here:.
Finally after 3 years I managed to make a vacation and back to Italy. I'm at my parent place where my photographic journey began. Back then I made pictures on zinnias through a kit lens now on same subject but through a helios 44 and the difference is there. No time for trips (helping my parents with their move in autumn to Sweden) so I managed to make a lot of zinnia/flower captures.... (I'll post those when back in Sweden). Here temperatures are at average 30/35C except for the nights quite hot for the period.

Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!p
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!
Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God what have we done to you
We always tried to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put you through
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
Angels with silver wings
Shouldn't know suffering
I wish I could take the pain for you
If God has a master plan
That only He understands
I hope it's your eyes He's seeing through
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
I pray you learn to trust
Have faith in both of us
And keep room in your hearts for two
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
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 :)
Finally I managed to find and photograph my nemesis in the open for a few split seconds! These are among my favourite birds, that necklace is absolutely stunning!
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is an orange day at Color my world Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is wet. Which is just awesome since Mr. Teddy Bear is with us to celebrate Happy Teddy Bear Tuesdays, and he just got caught in a rain. Luckily for him, he had his umbrella with him. The clouds just seemed to follow him everywhere but he manage to keep himself dry. But as you can see, the beautiful apple he bought for Princess is all wet. It is a well known fact, that wet apples taste the best… especially if they were under a summer rain… Which will not happen to me very soon, living in Montreal all I can have right now it is an apple covered in snow… and if it is still on a tree it will probably be all rotten by now.
In Mr. Teddy Bear world summer is endless so we don’t have to worry about rotten apples …
See you later ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
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.
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
Did a quick raid on Glencoe for the trip up Beinn a'Chrùlaiste for sunset. However, after a scorching hot day of blue skies, the clouds rolled in a blotted out the sun well before sunset. Luckily i managed a few shots with Pete posing on the famous 'lump', enjoying the view of BEM and the Glencoe valley off in the distance. All was not lost, however, as the Clachaig was open for a very well- earned rebalancing of body fluids.
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.
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.
After a bit of a scramble down the side of Busby Glen to the White Cart river, I got this shot of the Busby viaduct at nightfall
Wiener Melange at the Café Leopold Hawelka in the old town in Vienna, Austria.
Café Hawelka is a famous café in Vienna, Austria. It was opened by Leopold and josefine Hawelka in 1939.
The café was closed after the beginning of World War II, but was reopened in 1945 in the largely intact building.
After the end of Allied occupation in 1955, the café quickly became a meeting point for writers and critics including Heimito von Doderer, Albert Paris Gütersloh, Hilde Spiel, Friedrich Torberg and Hans Weigel. In 1961 it became more popular among artists and became a center of the art scene. Regular guests included Friedrich Achleitner, H. C. Artmann, Konrad Bayer, Ernst Fuchs, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Rudolf Hausner, Wolfgang Hutter, Helmut Qualtinger, Gerhard Rühm, and Oskar Werner.
Josefine Hawelka died in 2005 after having managed the café for 66 years with her husband. She had baked the café's specialty, its Buchteln desserts (which are still made by Günther Hawelka, Josefine and Leopold's son).
Leopold Hawelka would sit at the entrance to his now famous café and greet his customers until he died in 2011.
Managed to get out for a couple of hours with the camera today and found a new location in my local area of North Hampshire.
Hi All,
I managed to creep closer to Mr. Pileated than my last post of him. I clicked away as he pecked fast and furiously, (more like head banging)! :0(
Pileated Woodpecker Male - Dryocopus pileatus
Thanks a million for taking the time to view, comment and fave this image, so appreciated! Have a wonderful day!

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. :)
Finally managed to get out and about and take a few photos to start this 100x project. My son liked this iPhone processed shot better than all the others and yes, for those of you who put up with my 100x last year, it's those bridges again!
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.
Finally managed to catch one. Could have been a little sharper I suppose. Well, there is always next time!
One the west shore of Loch Eck sits an old hut that has barely changed in the 15+ years I've been visiting there. Originally I think it was used to house animals by one of the nearby farms but now sits abandoned.
Wingardium Leviosa. It was the first spell she learned and, as it turns out, is one of her best spells. At first she could barely lift anything, or everything would backfire. Now? Now she could pull a person up by their clothing or move an object from across the room. Still, this didn’t mean she didn’t have to practice.
“Wingardium Leviosa,” she said quietly to herself and smiled as her books and papers lifted up around her.
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.
Managed a trip to the Yorkshire Dales for these Turtle Doves before I disappear for a few days. They kept there distance, so unfortunately they are large crops.
Many thanks as always for your comments and faves.
We managed to see a bit of sunshine on our last Norfolk trip and did a short walk from Morston Quay to Blakeney Quay.

Managed to catch the tail end of this beautiful sunrise this morning before it began to rain. This makes me hopeful for a positive election result. Cottage Lake, Woodinville, WA
Last night I managed to get the evening off work and headed up to Sheepstor on Dartmoor for sunset. I really don't think there is a better view anywhere else on the moor. To the left but out of shot of this photo you can see all the way to Plymouth Sound on a clear day and in shot you can see Burrator Reservoir. It's a bit of a steep climb up to the top of Sheepstor but it is worth it. There was no cloud cover at all last night but there was still a lovely bit of colour in the sky.
I managed to get amongst the wild flowers/beautiful weeds in a part of the garden yesterday and took some photos. They're mainly these yellow dandelion-like flowers collectively known as "false dandelions" and they have names such as Catsear, Meadow Hawkweed and Bristly Hawkbit. I think these particular ones are Catsear. There are so many of them and they give a beautiful display.
