One of the longest days of the year.. So wonderful to explore the countryside.. Would have been better without the mosquitoes.. Yes, just in case you were wondering, the dots and spots on most of these pictures are not sensor dust - these are all bloody mosquitoes and I left them there so that you can see and I can remember.. ;D

On our tail down taxy rides you enjoy the only chance in Europe to be inside a Mosquito with both Merlins running. We place guests enjoying a ride in the navigators position beside the pilot. The sound of the 2 Merlins alone has a profound effect on any one who is the least bit interested in the Second World War. The whole experience lasts 30 minutes, with the taxy run itself lasting around 15 minutes and a tour around the equipment in the cockpit. Each guest has a certificate to take home signed by the pilot.
Mosquito HJ711 is the only running Mosquito outside of North America!
After a good night... Mousticos, tired, sat on the edge of the bed and smoked a cigarette. Looking behind him at the panting body of his victim, swollen with bites, he told himself that none of them had any resistance.
His cigarette finished, he let it fall on the floor as he stood up.
With a small grin, he turned his head towards the finally sleeping body and gently said “See you tomorrow”.
...
Après une bonne nuit ... Mousticos, fatigué, s'assit au bord du lit et se fuma une clope. Regardant derrière lui, le corps pantelant de sa victime, bouffie de piqûres, il se dit qu'aucunes n'avaient de résistance.
Sa clope finie, il la laissa tomber sur le sol en se levant.
Avec un petit rictus, il tourna la tête vers le corps enfin endormi et lui dit doucement un "A demain".

Last Friday an old colleague, he was my manager some time ago, invited me to go and see him fly so that I could take some picalillies of the event.
What you see is a deltawing and attached to is a Mosquito. The deltawing is from Italy and the Mosquito is from Sweden if I remember correctly. The Mosquito is a sleepingbag with an engine attached to it.
To take off, he starts running and simultaneously revvs the shit of that little engine. The wing does its thing and it lifts up and he's air airborne. Then he has to get his legs into the sleepingbag and zip up and retract the landing gear (two legs at the end). As far as he knows, he is the only one in the country who has one of these.
It's super cool. A man can fly, by himself!

Mosquito Falls
Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Michigan
Mosquito Falls, located in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, is a hidden gem for those seeking a peaceful escape into nature. This small yet picturesque waterfall cascades over rocky ledges along the Mosquito River, creating a tranquil scene surrounded by lush forest. Though not the largest waterfall in the park, its secluded charm and the soothing sounds of rushing water make it a rewarding destination for those exploring the natural beauty of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
Wanting to become bug splatter......please note, the nicely in focus mosquito in the top left of the image. Pure fluke.

Early morning. Trying to find Yellow-winged Darters (Sympetrum flaveolum) in an area where I photographed them for the last time, as a young boy, in 2011.
But I ran into a problem. I ran out of 'Off', a Finnish version of mosquito repellent. Medvastö in Kirkkonummi is a wet area, and due to serious amounts of rain, it was a very very wet area this year. Hundreds of mosquitos, perhaps thousands, who love this wet environment were coming for me... and I couldn't handle'm, as I didn't have my magic spray. Yes, I did find the Yellow-winged Darters, but so did the mosquitos find me.
Well, got a couple of nice shots, softens the itching. Happy Days.
