We are here together .... you never know where you will find support!!!

Northern Shoveler/Green-winged Teal

You know when a looney tunes character sees a cooked chicken while chasing Daffy Duck or the road runner. I think I might have been extra hungry while shooting these juvenile black crowned night herons because that is what I see.

I wonder what the lone male Red Rumped Parrot was thinking with his two mates having their wives with them. Perhaps he is the chaperone!

Macro Mondays, 3 February 2020. "The Odd One"

Raided the spice rack for this one. Four grains of salt, the odd fellow is, I believe, a partial peppercorn from a package of steak spice rub..

Odd Photos.

Yet another oddity that I stick to. This little spot, a kind of a clearing in the woodland, lays beside the path I walk along more or less frequently. I have a remarkable large collection of photos from this few trees that grow there.

It's not a particular beautiful scene. Basically it's very chaotic and crowded, untidy. There's never a good light, either, so it seems. But still I make pictures there again and again. Maybe it is not despite but because the scene just refuses to be photogenic. It's quite the opposite. One of the strange views that speak to me but refuse to make any sense, even for myself. Odd.

Thank you for your kind comments and favs. All are greatly appreciated.

Isn't it? Found this dead tree on a small forest glade during nice foggy conditions. Quite like its mood and pastel colour palette. In its final view, it got some sort of Inception-style, can you recognize it?? :) Whatelse do you like or dislike about this image? Please let me know in the comments.

Crazy Tuesday Theme: “Odd One Out”

 

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated. 😊

In every group of individuals... there is always at least one who (a bit like me)... feels that they don't quite fit in with the rest.

 

I found these little mushrooms while walking in the forest this morning. They were in absolutely perfect condition with not a single blemish... hah hah... a bit like me! ;)

 

Flower's are opening up,and ready to Bloom.

From the shifty looks, the same person walking by me, and the guy in full camo riding a bike imitating train sounds, Roscommon, MI. had all of the bases covered. After putting their train together, LSRC 304 heads back south toward Pinconning through the heart of town. The building to the right with the crossbuck on the face is the home of the Roscommon Historic Model Train Club, so I saw it very fit to shoot here, even if when I described my encounters to someone that night, I was told that was where I was going to die. I made it out alive, and even went back the next day.

Ohne Stacking, einfach so.

This is a photo story that fascinated me! I was photographing a great blue heron rookery (600mm lens), and suddenly a pair of red-tail hawks began circling the top of the tree where one GBH was standing guard. One hawk continually flew close to the guard heron, who then swelled up its chest, spread its huge wings, and screamed at the hawk. This happened numerous times. Finally the hawk flew back in carrying some dried weeds in its beak and landed on a nest directly below the fierce-looking heron. The hawk tucked its reeds into the nest and then settled in. The heron, seeming to accept the hawk's presence, relaxed its threatening posture and resumed its regular guard position!

This is to the left of the house in the next shot. The two look nothing alike, which seems a bit odd. It's also a unique shape and here in Wisconsin we don't use garage doors of this type because you can't get them open when we get two feet of snow. Then there's the paint job.

Macro Mondays Theme: The Odd One

This is one for the group, Looking close….on Fridays! With today’s theme being ‘Soles’.

Inspired by that classic Hollywood film, The Odd Couple with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau.

30/11/2016; Now I am used to showers of rain, hail, sleet, or rain, but I entered quite the odd shower some time ago... ;)

For "Looking close... on Friday!" ; theme : "odd one out".

Keeping with the theme of juvenile snowflakes, this one had just begun to grow its branches before was sent out of the clouds. Even though the branches are tiny, there’s a lot to discover here! view large!

 

This snowflake also harbours three-fold symmetry, albeit much less obvious than yesterday’s snowflake. The best place to see it is in the central bubbles; notice how every other “trapezoid” has roughly the same pattern? This even-odd symmetry is quite common, you’d be surprised how often you find it when you go looking!

 

Most of the surface details of this snowflake are on the opposite side of the crystal. They can be seen through the ice (ice is transparent) with a little less detail. I enjoy this look better of certain snowflakes, revealing stronger lines around the outside edges and allowing internal features to become more prominent. While nature creates these beauties, the photographer has a lot of control for how to present them to the world!

 

Snowflakes are all about lighting and angles. If I can photograph the snowflake on an angle where the light from the ring flash partially reflects back off the surface of the crystal into the lens (like glare), the surface lights up. Multiple surfaces make certain parts of the snowflake brighter, which is most often caused by bubbles in the ice. The brighter central area? It’s just ice like the other parts, but because the bubble creates multiple layers of ice, there are now multiple reflective surfaces and more light coming back to the camera.

 

This is also true along the branches. A very bright feature in most snowflakes, one or two running lines through the center of the branch reflect a ton of light. If the image is severely under-exposed, these regions reveal solid rainbows of colour. At normal exposures, you can still see the bleeding of colour away from their bright white centers. These bright areas could be caused by ridges above the surface of the ice (in this case, on the opposite side) that can evoke the prism effect. Alternative they could be bubbles in the ice, but something would need to be special about them to be so much brighter than other bubbles.

 

Photography is the melding of art and physics, and snowflake photography is a great example of that. If you want to know all the photographic (artistic) techniques, as well as all the physics of snowflakes, you need to own a copy of Sky Crystals: skycrystals.ca/book/ - you won’t be disappointed, it’ll make winter much more tolerable!

 

If you enjoy this series of images, your eyes might light up when you see “The Snowflake” print – consisting of over 400 snowflakes put together over 5 years with 2500 hours of work… all into a single image: skycrystals.ca/poster/ - do me a favour and take a look!

When I took this photo just over a week ago, there were thousands of guillemots on the cliffs and on the sea. On my last session they had all gone back out to sea again. No doubt when I go on Sunday they will all be back. Quite unpredictable creatures are guillemots sometimes.

HMBT!

Toplita-Borsec line, 8/03/1995. Expert opinion identifies the inspection vehicle (left) as a Russian ZIS-110, a luxury limousine, based on a Packard original.

 

The L45 to the right has cleared the line for a special. The inspection car has followed, picking up bodies, etc. (I was leaning out of the last carriage of the special).

This close-up of this Southern Screamer captures the unique characteristics of this unusual bird. It is found in southeastern Peru, northern Bolivia, Paraguay, southern Brazil, Uruguay and northern Argentina.

 

Screamers are the “guard birds” of their habitats; their trumpet-like calls can carry for several miles, warning other birds.

 

The Southern Screamer establishes monogamous relationships that last its lifetime, around 15 years.
