The next weeks I will post photos from my visit to the Völklinger Hütte. A fully preserved ironworks from the heyday of industrialization and nowadays a world heritage site.
Panorama stitched from 8 shots.
The next day in the Anna's Hummingbird story. They are significantly bigger and only two days away from leaving the nest.
On this day the chicks were no longer 'shy' in singing their song, as they were as loud as mom, and tricked me several times that she was coming when she wasn't.
Please don't use this image on websites, blogs, etc. without my permission.
They are 4 generation from their journey from Mexico to Canada and back to Mexico, along the way each generation will lay their eggs on Milkweed, the first 3 of them is 1 Month each and the last that goes back to Mexico lives 9 Months,
I am hopping to see this be a beautiful butterfly, out of 8 little Caterpillars only this survived,

It's been in the news: "This is the first big partial eclipse to happen in the UK since 1999, and the next one isn't until August 2026, so this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity." - So all gear set up and waiting - hoping for a glimpse of that "once-in-a-generation" event...
BUT the weather didn't play by the rules where I live: Muddy skiess all morning... No sun to be seen, let alone the moon trying to cover it up...
Still, with all the gear in place, when the clouds went I decided to do a shot of the sun (background image - HDR'ed) and "post-processed" my moon in with Photoshop afterwards.
Ha: If you cannot rely on UK clear skies, create your own eclipse! ;-)
Made for mental sanity & Sliders Sunday: HSS!
I generally do not like portrait orientation for 'landscapes', but once in a while it is essential. As we walked to Virginia Falls at Glacier National Park, Virginia Creek flowed next to the trail for short distances at some points. The roar of the water here created by the creek and the beautiful background made for an unforgettable moment.
Popular spot spend time in Oulu. Watching the sea next to city theater and market area. The sea is very calm in that spot as it protected by surrounding islands

there’s a vacancy, next to me
a place bare for entry
carefully, kept empty
a warmth void presently
come to me, poetry
the words lost in sanity
expressed delicately
some sort of potency
built, a ready construct
a house to share the abstract
some sort of comfort, filled absence
the shape takes form in fractures
Another image of the male Redstart on Exmoor.
The good news is that the young have fledged successfully and its possible that the parents may raise a second brood although they they often don't.
It was fantastic to watch and photograph them and the area where they nested is secluded and truly beautiful .
Well lets hope the young survive to return to the moors next year.

Moving into the season of gray and cold is always bittersweet...
For Slider's Sunday. HSS!!
9 year old Claudia loved hearing and then saying this when the Rialto stop was announced
After dinner I hurried out without a guide, and after noting the four points of the compass, plunged into the labyrinth of this city, which is intersected everywhere by canals but joined together by bridges. The compactness of it all is unimaginable unless one has seen it... I easily found the Canal Grande and its principal bridge, the Ponte Rialto, which is a single arch of white marble. Looking down, I saw the Canal teeming with gondolas and the barges which bring all necessities from the mainland and land at this point to unload.
[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1786]

I ran into my next door neighbor and his dog on my walk today.
We crossed paths on the German Club driveway.
After we chatted a few minutes, he headed on down the driveway toward the road, when a herd of deer went running across the driveway right in front of him.
I had been heading up the driveway in the opposite direction, but just happened to turn around to look behind me, just in time to get this shot.
Lot's of distractions these day so I haven't been out with a camera very often. This one is from last October and the idea was that we'd get a fabulously colorful sunset - which didn't pan out. Instead, it was getting later in the evening and I tried my hand with a bit of focus stacking before it got too dark. Stacking has been on my "proficiency list" for a while but for one reason or another, I've been avoiding it. This image is a stack of two but I should have done at least three. Next time! Lot's of editing here for the toned effect, which should make it work for Sliders Sunday! HSS
