Our pool at the Kingsland Resort is awesome with steam vents, waterslides and hot tubs. This photo doesn't do it justice, but it covers a huge area :)
The Mammoth pools were in the devastating Creek Fire in September of 2020. I was amazed at how scarred this entire area was from the fire, 45,500 acres burned. The good news is I did see new growth sprouting up out of the land. There are several campgrounds around this reservoir. The fire was so fast that many campers were not able to evacuate ending up waiting for help by going into the water to avoid the fire. 224 campers were rescued by helicopter and taken to safety.
The trickiest thing about producing this image wasn't the walk to location, deciding on the composition, choosing camera settings, wading through the water to get into position, or even the fickle Scottish weather. It was the editing out of other photographers in the shot. I dread to think what it must be like trying to photograph in this area during the busy summer season.
Well a patio table with pools of water - rain water all over it and halfway through taking a few shot the mottled old leaf just dropped onto the table ! Therefore I kept it in exactly where it landed seeing as providence had provided an extra prop for the shot .
This is of course my shot for SSC 27/07/2024 -- clear liquid .
A simple shot with no rambling write up this week , so straight into the Sight & Sound --
A tenuous link 'cos I like it and it takes me back straight to the early 1970s ( probably late 1972 )- or was it earlier and the Pilgrimage tour before this track , twas a long time ago !!
The numerous rock pools on the Northumberland coast from Bamburgh to Seahouses are well worth exploring for sea creatures, such as crabs, anemones, starfish, and limpets. Offshore are the Farne Islands, between 15 and 20 islands depending on the level of the tide. They form an archipelago, divided into the Inner and the Outer Group.
What a glorious day to visit the Fairy Pools in Glen Brittle on the Isle of Skye. The Pools are actually a series of falls and pools as the Allt Coir a'Mhadaidh tumbles from the impressive Cuilin Mountains which form a dramatic backdrop.
The Figure Eight Pools are a unique formation of natural pools on the rock shelf on the coastline of the Royal National Park south of Sydney. It takes some planning to reach this spot as only, safely, accessible at low tide. We walked there from Otford Train Station and return. A very hot and humid day so we were soaked of sweat getting there. My second visit. As I learned from my first visit a few weeks, the waves can be very unpredictable so easy to get hit by a wave as happened then! This perfectly shaped pool is deep and looks very picturesque from any angle, framed by the ocean on one side with dramatic cliffs on the other side. Hardly any people at the time, = very unusual so had time to male the most of it experimenting with different points of view. This classic composition turned out the best I think.
A typically "scottish" day back in October spent trying to catch those momentary breaks in the rain. But then again, it wouldn't have the atmosphere without the rainclouds, right?
Earth Focus Photo Tours is venturing a little further this October. We're excited to be taking our guests to Senja in Arctic Norway. Visit www.earthfocusphototours.com/senja-norway-tour-description for more details.

On darksome pools o' stwoneless Stour
An extract from The Water Crowvoot by William Barnes (1847).
A different edit of pictures taken from along the course of the Stour. Mostly from ten, or so, years ago. Distance of time gives a different perspective.

Taken on the evening I ventured out to Budle bay at Bamburgh in Northumberland.
By the time I go to this spot sunset time had been and gone, there had not actually been a sight of the sun but the colours were there and picked up nicely in the rock pools too, this is looking towards the North West, you can see Lindisfarne Castle on the horizon.
Fairy Pools, Coire na Creiche, Cuillins, Isle of Skye.
One of the better-known, and most photographed, of the falls. The trouble is that it's the one furthest from the start of the walk down into the corrie .. typical!
THE FAIRY POOLS - Isle of Skye, Scotland (part 1)
It's rare that I complete the process of developing images from a trip without having some sense of unfinished business, where a vision you had of an image hasn't quite lived up to the expectations you had while you were waste deep in a freezing river, shaking water out of your remote trigger. This is one such scene - the iconic Fairy Pools on Scotland's stunning Isle of Skye - completely absent of sunlight, yet somehow dramatically perfect with that low moody cloud hanging over the Cuillins. I've returned to the scene several times (digitally speaking) in the intervening years and always left wanting, despite the wonderful opportunity to reminisce. This time, perhaps, I've inched a little closer, but I always reserve the right - and the thrill - of returning to a much loved scene....
Kapoho Gezeiten Pools
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.
Gezeiten Pools sind felsigen Pools an der Küste, die mit Meerwasser gefüllt sind. Viele dieser Pools bilden eigenständige Becken bei Ebbe. Big Island, Hawaii.
I still don't like this new Flickr, but i'm sure I can't change it lol.
I'm back from Skye, well, I have been for a week now, and got some shots i'm really pleased with. This being one of them. The classic fairy pools shot with my own spin on it :)
