Managed to get a clear bit of late afternoon sun just in time to view the shards of ice soaring out of the glacierlagoon.

This is my whisky-fueled, wee hours test shot using my home-made version of a Gary Fong flash diffuser. The real thing costs £50-£60 ... my version costs 60p :D
Almost managed to walk straight past this on my way back to the car. It was only because a family walking the other way stopped to look at it that I looked left and noticed it. So glad I parked where I did, had I parked where I normally do I wouldn't have had this chance encounter at all. Shame there's not a Stag standing in the light, but you can't have everything!
I managed a quick shot of this Robin as it flew from bush to bush, just ahead of us, as we walked around the lakeside path at Hardwick Country Park the other day.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fav my images.

However, for those select few... Who possess, the predisposition... I can teach you how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses. I can tell you how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even put a stopper in death." Professor Severus Snape

Managed to get up close and personal with the family today... although Mum was keeping a very close eye on me....
I managed to make my way through the crowd of tourists who were busy taking selfies for this brief shot. Due to the number of people around me, I wasn't able to admire the scenery for even a minute.
There is a small villa which showed as a little white speck, just behind the nearest tree tops in this frame. A magnified shot of that architecture can be found right here.
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!
An Oak-leaved Hydrangea in a public flowerbed near home.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :)
I was at the Copper River Shorebird Festival and had been out to Hartney Bay, but there the birds stayed far far away, which I believe was in part because young children were allowed to run around on the mud flats to play and because everybody else walked out there as well. Of course the birds were going to avoid the people there.
The next morning I walked down to the harbor and managed to climb down below the levy next to Odiak Slough and I was by myself. The tide was still out and I could see the large flocks of Western Sandpipers feeding further away from me, so I crouched down and stayed motionless to see what they would do. To my delight they started to swirl towards me and land and feed, each time getting closer and closer until I had birds less than twenty feet from me. I continued to shoot them as they came closer and started to focus on solitary birds in the flock as they looked for food. The birds continued to come ever closer and finally were running and flying past me to find food behind me. They flew so close I could swear they were brushing against my jacket.
And as they continued to move in mass past me I could smell them and they smelled like rotten fish - probably bad breath from eating all those small crustaceans! After they had completely passed I managed to stand but my legs were stiff from having crouched down all that while. But no one else had been there to scare the birds away! What an experience!
Taken 6 May 2018 near Odiak Slough, Cordova, Alaska.
Managed to catch this little Blue Tit in the sun today.
The Sun was playing hide and seek behind the clouds all day so it was a bit of luck.
Wide-angle, surface-level view of one of the waterfalls in Pucks Glen. I call this waterfall the Sometimes Waterfall as often it is little more than a dribble.
As soon as Mario and I managed to find each other in the crowded center of Milan, we walked around looking for a good spot: I think Mario did see the beautiful Lera and Anastasia and I did go and approach them: at first they both were ok with posing, but a bit surprised and uncomfortable, but a few shots later they both enjoyed the experience and helped us with strong expressions. If I recall correctly, Mario suggested to take advantage of the cigarette and use it for the frame and, at some point I think Mario also helped with the reflector.
It took me a while to get proper control of the situation: thankfully Lera is an experienced model and was really great and helpful!
I got quite a few good shots, but I think the gaze in this one is pretty strong.
I had the chance to have a talk both with Lera and Anastasia and we spoke about their experience in Italy and about the beautiful Russia: Anastasia suggested I should go and see Moscow.
This definitely was a good start for a great day with Mario!
Thank you so much Lera: it was really fun taking pictures of you and wish you all the best!!!

Managed to grab an hour for myself to make some images. Been a good few weeks where I've had time and it wasn't cold, wet and grey. Popped into town for a quick stroll around the waterfront and shopping streets from some multi exposure fun

Jamey managed to wriggle up through a small gap between the drawers and wall to reach the top drawer. He found a bag of catnip!!
Managed to get out for a couple of hours today, and boy was it a little different to what it has been. Lovely clouds in the sky and no sun blazing down.
Anyway visited Wheal Coates, a fantastic spot and excellent for walking and of course photography. So i done a bit of both.
This must be one of the most photographed engine house ever, it is always busy here in the day time.

I managed to squeeze in a bit of brick therapy during the past few weeks.
This is small cargo shuttle, that I've been building over the last five weeks or so. This ship is intended to be the space equivalent of a box truck, like this. I imagine this particular ship as having a lot of light-years under its belt, used for longer journeys than originally intended, so there's a hammock in the cargo bay. As I explained above, I had a lot of time to think about this creation, even if I didn't have much time to build or blog. I also imagined the that it might not always have been docked in the nicest of space neighborhoods, so I built after I took some photos, I covered it in graffiti.
i managed to get 3 photos of christine in the last light of day on friday. we had so much fun even tho it's getting cold out there! i can't wait to do some more editing but today i will be at roslindale open studios all day showing my work. i love it when days are full of creativity. :)

Remnants of a fence on the edge of the chalk cliffs at Saltdean in Sussex, parts of which have evidently already been taken by rock falls. Shot from behind the newer fence that replaced it.
Managed to catch this sweet little duckling from the pier at our local pond. He looked up as I shot this photo and looked so angelic and seemed to have a smile on his tiny little face. This was my best shot of all; he was just so adorable. Who could not love this one?
n 1888 Queen Victoria granted Belfast the status of the city and it was agreed that a grand and magnificent building was required to reflect this new status. City Hall opened its doors on the first of August 1906, at a time of unprecedented prosperity and industrial might for the city.
The new City Hall was designed by Alfred Brumwell Thomas in the Baroque Revival style and constructed in Portland stone. The incredible building cost £369,000 to complete, the equivalent around 128 million pounds today but remains an extraordinary beacon of success and civic pride for Belfast.
City Hall has many connections with the famous ocean liner Titanic. Viscount William Pirrie who was Lord Mayor in 1896-1897 just before City Hall’s construction, was also managing director of Harland & Wolff Shipyard. He is the man credited as having the idea for both ambitious builds. He used many of his skilled workmen in the fit-out of City Hall which is why the interiors today are considered an incredible insight into the finish of Titanic’s lounges and suites, the ship’s carving panelling being very similar.

I managed to catch this beautiful osprey in flight today against a very busy background. Not perfect I know, but by my standards, I'm chuffed! It just caught the light at exactly the right moment.
It had a nest down in a valley, and I had started to hike down to see if I could get a decent shot, but it immediately did a few warning flybys to discourage me, and I didn't have the heart to agitate it so, so I hiked back out.
It has a little bit of fish offal hanging from its beak.
Location, near Muddy Hollow out in Point Reyes, California.
Today is day 16 of Project 365.
Taken with a Canon EOS REBEL T5 using a 135-400mm lens. F/8.0, 400mm, 1/500, ISO 1250, No flash.
I finally managed to release a first version of the article about Noritsu, I've been working on for quite a while now. You can find it here, if you're interested:
deltalenses.com/the-makers-noritsu/
I hope you enjoy reading about something you've probably never have heard of before, including a couple of unusual lenses, supposedly made by some of the biggest names in the business, but forgotten over time. Of course I appreciate your feedback and suggestions and if you find some errors/have some additional information or know someone who might, I'm really thankful if you reach out to me!
Shot with a Rodenstock "Magnagon 75 mm F 3.5" lens on a Canon EOS R5.
I managed to break two vases the other day so I had a bucket of glass pieces to choose from. I decided to try something I've seen before.
It should be possible to get an effect like this by using pure red, blue and green lights at different angles. I mimicked the colored lights however by taking three shots with a single flashlight at different positions, taking from each image only the red, blue or green channel (channel mixer in Darktable) and combining them (in the Gimp blending the layers with mode 'addition')
This is a crop of a larger image in order to get enough depth of field.
Thanks for all your comments and faves, they are really appreciated.
Happy Macro Monday!
Managed to capture this beauty in poor light conditions and through other obstacles but pleased with the result, never put your camera away !!
Managed to capture, through the reeds, this Juvenile Deer feeding. Always a delight to see these shy deer.

Thanks for viewing, and for any favs/comments.
I managed to escape to the Peak District this week to catch up with an old friend and visit a new location. The idea was to wild camp and take both sunset and sunrise shots, but the weather forecast changed and the sun failed to show up at sunset and with heavy rain predicted through the night and into the next day we decided to call it a night.
A nice view but one for another day when the conditions are better. A nice leg stretch and a good chat in the pub before heading home to a comfy bed.
Managed to get out for a little while this morning, and headed to Higger Tor in the Peak District. Conditions weren't exactly what I wanted - clear sky, which was expected, but no mist which I had been hoping for. It was also heaving with people, and someone, somewhere, was having a rave in their car. Unfortunately I forgot my glowsticks and whistle...
Played around with a few compositions using the gritstone rocks in the foreground, and some nice warm sidelight, and it was nice just to be out with my camera for the first time in over a month, so it wasn't a complete waste of time.
I've a page on facebook here - if you like my images please feel free to say hello and follow me on there too. Thank you.
Managed to get in the revamped Kingfisher hide today for the first time, I arrived at around 11.30 and by 3.00 the resident female visited at least 10 times.
Ok the weather was crap but I still managed to bag a few decent images when the clouds thinned every now and again..
Managed to find the nest site of a pair of Dartford warblers kept our distance as Mum & Dad kept a steady flow of food coming
Managed to get out yesterday and shoot some of the autumn colours before they disappear completely . This is Golithia falls near Bodmin one of my favourite spots in Cornwall , a special place that i all ways visit once a year .
. My web site . www.raymondbradshawphotography.co.uk
This morning I managed to get out to Golitha Falls as I’ve still not managed to get an Autumn shot from there that I’m happy with. The pre-dawn trek from the car park is quite tricky in the dark as there’s lots of roots and stones to trip over, especially as I decided to start further down the falls and head back taking pictures as that gives more shooting time before heading to work. Although there’s a lot of nice leaves on the floor, the trees are not quite in their full autumnal splendour so I think I’ll head back in a couple of weeks time.
