The whooper swan is similar in appearance to the Bewick's swan. It is larger, however, at a length of 140–165 cm and a wingspan of 205–275 cm. Weight typically is in the range of 7.4–14 kg with an average of 9.8–11.4 kg for males and 8.2–9.2 kg for females. The verified record mass was 15.5 kg for a wintering male from Denmark. It is considered to be amongst the heaviest flying birds.
People give flowers as presents because flowers contain the true meaning of love. Anyone tries to possess a flower will have to watch its beauty fading. But if you simply look at a flower on a field, you will keep it forever, because the flower is part of the evening and the sunset and the smell of damp earth and the clouds on the horizon. (Paulo Coelho)
Le persone danno fiori come regalo perché i fiori contengono un vero significato di amore. Chi cerca di possedere un fiore, vede la sua bellezza appassire, ma chi lo ammira in un campo, lo porterà sempre con sé. Perché il fiore si fonderà con il pomeriggio, con il tramonto, con l’odore di terra bagnata e con le nuvole all’orizzonte. (Paulo Coelho)
The sun has set on another day, in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Dark clouds hang over the horizon.

While waiting to photograph comet C/2020 F3 NEOWISE, I took some time to test out my gear on a sunset. The hill at the centre of McLennan Park, colloquially known as Mount Trashmore, is one of the higher points within the city of Kitchener's boundaries, and is a popular spot for people to watch the sunset.

Dear followers, sorry (again) for my wa-hay too long absence over at Flickr. I'm more on Twitter 'lately'. ;-)
Still keeping an eye on Flickr though, and all the excellent stuff that's been posted here by you lot.
Just came back from our Schwarzwald (Black Forest, Germany) vacation, which was quite excellent actually. Thought it 'd be boring! Anyway, I saw plenty of small and huge waterfalls. Always good to have my camera with me plus my tiny Manfrotto table tripod. Works a treat.
This is part of the beautiful Triberg waterwalls (7 levels) with a ND soft grad (0.6) a polarizer and going down to ISO31. Which gave me the 3 seconds I wanted. Nice place - a little bit too touristic though.
Happy shooting y'all - see you around! :)

Come and join me on my Harris and Lewis Photography Workshop 2nd-8th March 2019 £1,395
melvinnicholsonphotography.co.uk/product/harris-lewis-sco...
Well today was my last full day of photography on this quite remarkable island of Lewis and Harris and this location was to be the final one of the day/week/amazing photography holiday.
I have had a fantastic time with three very good friends all week, lots of laughter, fun and humorous stories have been had which is always good for the head, heart and soul. Thanks Mick, Tony and Brian for the memories.
.
Personally I always love finishing an epic trip to somewhere new with a fantastic location as it kind of has me send of the place in style and this wonderful little beach awaited us this afternoon. We arrived to find it completely free of footprints which is remarkable and it allowed us to compose our shots carefully.
The rolling waves were perfectly timed and just the right height and intensity to deliver us some cracking photos such as this one.
My verdict on the Isle of Lewis and Harris?
This is my first time of visiting and it has been an education and a real pleasure in discovering the many different sides and locations of this fine island. I have found it to be remote, desolate in parts, much larger than I first thought with some quite outstanding beaches, sea stacks and rocky outcrops. It really does feel different to the mainland, very earthy, no-nonsense way of living but seemingly free of complications and modern life and actually that isn't a bad thing.
I have decided to run a workshop here later in the year, either a four or a five day one with a maximum of five places. If you're interested in joining me, let me know and you'll be the first to hear of my future plans for this quite wonderful island.
I hope you have all enjoyed my photos and exploits from Lewis and Harris this week and I have shot a video of me today which I will edit once home (it will be live on YouTube early next week).
Thanks for all your comments, likes and general interaction this week, it has been great having you along for the ride. I'm off to Dorset on Wednesday for five days to run a two day 1-2-1 with a new client followed by a one day workshop on the Sunday which I am delighted to announce that the one and only Take-a-View Landscape Photographer of the Year 2016-17 Matthew Cattell will be joining me as a special guest for the day.
So for those of you who have booked on to the workshop, there's a little treat for you and if there's a couple of you out there interested in joining us at Durdle Door, Bat's Head, Man 'o' War Bay and Kimmeridge Bay for the day, click here to book.

Thank you all for visits, faves and comment
A medium-large shorebird, the lesser yellowlegs measures 27 cm. The legs are yellow. Compared to the greater yellowlegs, the bill is shorter (visually about the same length as the head), slim, straight, and uniformly dark. The breast is streaked and the flanks are finely marked with short bars. A vagrant in Iceland and a new lifer for me species no. 156.
