Sunset reflection in a pond/lake found in Chatham County Wetlands Preserve.
This spot was quite tricky because of the large radio/cell tower just to the left of frame (you can make out some of the wires on the left side of the image). The clouds behind the tower were certainly photo worthy, but the tower dominated the scene and made for poor images. This was the best of this shot on that evening.
Well, I hope you like it.
I think photo inspiration can jump out from pretty much anywhere! I was doing a quick television channel flip through before heading to dreamland a couple of nights back when my eyes landed on a home shopping channel selling wigs. Yes, wigs. Words can’t aptly describe how bad these things were.
The comedic value was high, the beauty value I would have to say was nil. The host was tossing her head about and the wig looked like it had just been taken out of a box from the Dollar Tree wig section (assuming that Dollar Tree had a wig section!) and was just thrown on, no brushing, no styling, no nothing! So ... I set out to duplicate the look in SL. I have to say mini me looks better in her doll hair than the poor host of that shopping channel did in hers though. hehe
And Kelly, if you happen to read this, I was going for expensive blonde here and well, yeah, not happening. I'm gonna need the number for your bougie colorist ASAP!
Happy new week everyone ... I hope you all have seven good hair days in a row! 💖

This is a really poor shot (heavy crop) but it made my day to see them and wanted to save it for a memory. I had been chasing them around town for a week and finally connected with them.
White-faced Ibis are rare in BC but in recent years and weeks more and more have been flying through our province en route to breed in AB.
The countryside east of the town of Maastricht was poor and consisted of poor agricultural areas with scattered small farms.

OC&T's poor little Alco sits quietly, awaiting it's chance to, once again, serve the industries in and around Titusville, Pa.
One of my attempts at the "Crazy Tuesday" theme "Backlight".
Shot with a (Tomioka) "Tominon MC 48 mm F 4" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.
felt bad for this little guy, We had a pretty good hail storm today and this little guy was getting pelted but good.
This easily ranks as one of the most awkward photos I have ever taken, and I thought it would be straightforward! Needed to get right on to doing this, as I wanted to get out into the garden and the weather was forecast to deteriorate for the next few days. I intended to photograph a fuchsia flower from directly underneath so had to make use of two pieces of kit I don't often use - the centre column of my tripod can adjust to horizontal (so getting the camera to point straight up was easy) and also the back live-view screen can flip out and rotate (so I could see the subject without being behind the camera). But the camera had to be quite close to the ground where there was less breeze, and I was fussing with frustration as I struggled to use the camera controls when I couldn't see them, and my long-sightedness gave problems focusing using the live-view screen. Even getting the camera into a suitable position was problematic. I played with various fuchsia flowers taking several dozen shots, and all I produced were some 'interesting' (to put it kindly) abstracts that I wasn't happy with - so I decided to give up...
Then I found myself wondering what would happen if I tried this with a snail (things couldn't get any worse) even though that had not been my original intention. I spent quite a while getting the camera in the best possible position under a suitable flower before finding a very tiny Brian to try. Because of the poor light under the fuchsia bush, I had to resort to f3.5 at ISO800, settings I would never normally use with a snail. After just a few attempts, I got the resulting shot - although I generally want the eyes in focus, I didn't think I could do any better.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Look Up'. This turned out to be an excellent challenge, and I had so much 'fun' I may want to try it again (just not right away). The image has not been cropped and spans just under 3 cm.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
…and birds… and clouds… and Robben Island.
I’m still digging around in the archives… there’s nothing too special about this one… just thought I’d post a nice warm sunset shot for all my poor freezing contacts in the northern-hemisphere. :)

and there it was on my door step after flying into some thing, i held him gently in my hand - think he/she liked the warmth, just gave it a few moments was trying to open his eyes and stretch a wing, found him safe haven in my hedge and sadly had to just hope he made it.

A shot of one of the many large Ponderosa Pines that burned at the base and had to be cut down or simply fell down after the Wildfire went through this area. The red on the rocks in the BG is fire retardant that was dropped from aircraft.

Jamie was pouting and in a bad mood here. Our entire neighborhood lost power for several hours, so he had no TV or video games.
Then he got upset because I told him he couldn't play with the hose. Never mind that it was almost dark outside.
So, he went and stared out the window for a while.
