Sea Anemones and Crabs were my Companions on a Delightful visit to the Tide Pools at Corona Del Mar, California.
As excited children scurried from one pool to another shrieking at the sight of colorful sea life, this old guy was practically on hands and knees scrambling back to safety from the advancing tide. Do it while you can... Life is Good : )

Not the best time of year to visit the Fairy Pools. This reflection was the best light I could get on any of my shots. The majority of the shots including the usual vista were rather flat as everything was in shadows all day.
What speaks most against visiting these pools during that time of year was the way there. I was more lucky than anything else that I didn't end up off the road as others I passed. The passing places were so deep in snow that you just had to push through at speed and hope for the best. Esprecially you had to hope that you encountered other cars only at a passing place when heading up.
New rock pools to explore on this section of this beach. A while back the foreground area was covered in sand. There is a hole in the big rock section in the background and a rock pool was located just in front of it. This day the waves were not rolling through the hole as they usually did. This beach ever changing, especially this year with all the heavy rains. Bunga Beach South Mimosa Rocks National Park NSW.

Glenbrittle, Isle of Skye
A really cool spot about halfway through Soldier's Pass where water collects in these 7 natural pools, surrounded by towering rock formations. A beautiful (and popular) area and we were fortunate enough to have it to ourselves for a short while.

The Fairy pools are a string of waterfalls on Sky Isle in Scotland. It is close to a road and the challenge for photographers is to get it without the people. The clouds add to the mysterious mood, but just a little bit of sun would have been nice...
This was our first full day on Skye and the first time seeing it in the light, albeit subdued. I had planned for an overcast day with a trip to the Fairy Pools, an easy walk up the side of the Allt Coir' a' Mhadaidh and a great collection of plunge pools and waterfalls that tumble down from the foothills of the Black Cuillins into Glen Brittle.
I do wish there was a little more separation in the form of some direct light on the foreground, but you can only work with what you have. To try and combat the 'flatness' of the final image I decided to cross process the picture with magenta and teal hues.
Green Pools in Williams Bay National Park, Western Australia. We came here some 12 years ago on a cold rainy day and it was nothing special. This time we could see what all the fuss was about. Beautiful!
As some of you know, I love my country and i feel blessed and privileged to have natural pools like this here!

Precipitation has been good this winter, resulting in some very wet conditions in many areas of Arizona. Benefits from the precipitation include opportunities to capture scenes in different ways, with interesting compositions. One example here, features rainwater flowing through Soldiers Pass, filling the Seven Sacred Pools, beneath Coffee Pot Rock.

Tide pools are rocky pools on the sea shore which are filled with seawater. Many of these pools exist as separate pools only at low tide. Big Island, Hawaii.

The wonders of Mammoth Hot Springs always amaze me. I wondered what the water source was, never knew it traveled that far:
"Terrace Mountain at Mammoth Hot Springs is the largest known carbonate-depositing spring in the world. It was created over thousands of years as hot water from the spring cooled and deposited calcium carbonate (over two tons flow into Mammoth each day in a solution). Because of the huge amount of geothermal vents, travertine flourishes.
The hot water that feeds Mammoth comes from Norris Geyser Basin after traveling underground via a fault line that runs through limestone and roughly parallel to the Norris-to-Mammoth road."
Have a most wonderful weekend!
This is a colour version taken just after the other shot I have posted, I like the Black & White version but i am swinging more to this colour one now
Just got home from Beaumaris in Anglesey Wales so late with my photo this week. We visited Penmon Lighthouse on a very sunny but cold afternoon, in the lead up to the lighthouse there were very many interesting rock pools so I thought this would be a good idea for a water element. I have cropped the photo down to fit in with the 3" limit.
The Fairy Pools is a series of picturesque waterfalls and crystal-clear pools in the heart of scenic Glen Brittle, in the western foothills of the Black Cuillins. The Pools offer stunning views of the Cuillin Hills.
The famous Fairy Pools on Skye after a bit of rain, not much swimming going on due to the inclement weather and strong current. Used my waterproof Olympus Tough TG4 for most shots taken here.
A clear sky afternoon at the beach always makes me look harder for something to catch my eye. Reflections of the cliffs are always an obvious favourite. These shallow pools on a smooth limestone surface only last a few hours as they dry out, They are Gossamer Thin by Conor Oberst.

We spent over 8 hours over 2 separate days exploring the Fairy Pools on the River Brittle (Allt Coir a Mhadaidh) and the foothills of the Black Cuillins in Glen Brittle on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. This shot was taken on the first day, when there was lots of rain and fog. In the left background you can see the pinnacle of Sgur an Fheadin and its Waterpipe Gully, first climbed successfully in 1895. On our second day here we walked to its base and beyond.

An inlet along the coast at Duck, NC on the Outer Banks. The Duck Boardwalk is to the right. Have a terrific week ahead and thanks for the look.
Located near the village of Carbost on the Isle of Skye, visitors can embark on a stunning walk from Glen Brittle towards the Fairy Pools.
The Fairy Pools is a popular hotspot for photographers and walkers, and is one of the most magical places in Scotland.
The Fairy Pools waterfall at a very rainy day. The mountain behind was covered by clouds. Handling photo equipment wasn't easy at all while standing in the water. Glenbrittle, Isle of Skye, 2018.
In the week of March 4-9, 2018, I participated in a Photo Workshop/Tour on the Isle of Skye. It was quite an experience! Three out of four and a half days it rained, so it was a struggle to keep everything dry. We crossed the isle several times. Just under bad weather conditions the isle is marvelous.
Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!
This shows very much the beauty of Mana Pools, Zambezi Valley, Zimbabwe
