Pink Columbine / Akelei (Aquilegia) and Crab Spider / Veränderliche Krabbenspinne (Misumena vatia, fem.)

 

This is the position in which the little Crab spider remained quite a long time waiting for prey. Quite a nice and safe place, I think :-)

 

The enigmatic and very present Puma, Viktoria... loving that position she held.. Photographed with awe at the Big Cat Sanctuary, Kent

Just thought I'd let you know that the BBC has published an article on my photography on their "Get Creative" arts magazine website. They chose the image above as one to spotlight, I originally posted it a long time ago, so I thought I'd use this as an excuse to resurrect it again.

 

The Article: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/5wWbzZZ93H73HkkHhTl8Yp3...

 

This was my first ever attempt at macro photography.

 

For those of you who think the bug was dead, here's the next photo when it wandered off during the exposure:

The position of Hohenzollern Castle is impressive by itself. All around wide lowlands are reaching out and in the middle the castle is enthroned on its mountain. The builders couldn't have chosen a better place.

 

Die Lage der Burg Hohenzollern ist an sich schon beeindruckend. Runderherum erstreckt sich eine weite Ebene und in der Mitte thront die Burg auf ihrem Berg. Einen besseren Platz hätten sich die Baumeister nicht suchen können.

Saturday, several of us are gathered at Commonwealth Lake (at safe distancing), waiting for the osprey. Finally, one showed up, and did take the strike position a few times, but never took a dive.

con immenso piacere la dedico a Osvaldo_Zoom

i suoi scatti di "vita del viaggiatore" raccontano uno spaccato di vita, uno spartito di viaggio... un racconto di quotidianità... raccontano la naturalezza di un momento.

il suo occhio attento riesce a rendere questi cortometraggi di vita molto affascinanti....

grazie Osvaldo per l'ispirazione di uno stile che solo tu sai esprimere con un sentimento unico!

I almost missed this guy folks could hardly see him the way he was positioned, which I thought was a nice in habitat image.

 

Thanks for everything, you cannot know how much it means.

Ballerinas have nothing on this bird! I can watch these Common yellow Leg Sandpipers for hours. I love their slender legs and long necks as they stride purposely in the low tide.

 

I think they look like dancers ... acrobatic and swift. When flying they extend their legs beyond their tails - gorgeous.

 

I think this is the 5th position, anyone??

 

Hoping all is well.

Position: Roztoky, Slovak Republic. Hoofed woodpecker ( Forester fomentarius ) is a perennial inedible wood-destroying fungus of the chorous family .

The fruiting body grows sideways to a beech trunk or q in mountain forests, where it is most abundant. However, it also grows in the lowlands, for example on birches, poplars, maples, oaks, lindens, walnuts and hornbeams.

Fomes fomentarius is widespread from the Arctic Circle to the Mediterranean.

I shot this last November in Destin, FL as the sun set over the ocean. I stumbled across it in my archives as I was searching for something to post.

One of my attempts for the "Macro Mondays" theme "Stone".

 

Shot with a (Tomioka) "Tominon MC 48 mm F 4" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.

I positioned this bright white Clematis to cheer up a dark corner in the garden. It has turned out to be quite stunning !

Happy Caturday~ Looking on the Bright Side

 

When a cat is playing or frightened, they try to make themself look as big as possible. A stiff-legged hopping gait often accompanies this puffing out of their fur.

Jerri often assumes this pose when playing with Oscar, much to our amusement and delight!

Unfortunately, I was not able to see this guy pupate. It happened in the wee hours of the morning when I was still snug in my bed. However, there is a beautiful Chrysalis hanging from this leaf now. I’ll post that picture tomorrow. Good luck on your transformation Monarch!

I said I wouldn’t so any posts until Sunday, but here’s one I prepared earlier!! Lots of lovely new stuff for you to enjoy. Go get shopping.

The young newt was swimming perpendicular to my position. Suddenly it gracefully pivoted and swam directly toward me.

 

Newts exist at the crossroads of evolution, when life first emerged from the oceans to land. They are a captivating blend of sweetness and mystery.

♪♫♥♪Alex Britti - Piove♥♪♫

 

"Piove

sui monti e sulle scale

su petali e parole

sul cuore mio che batte

Piove sui poveri soldati

sui campi abbandonati e sulla mia città....

 

Chissà se agosto è ancora nostro,

se ancora splende il sole

o poi magari piove..

Chissà se mai la frustrazione

diventa un’emozione

così non piove più.

 

Piove,

sui banchi della scuola

su ogni mia parola che non riesco a dire,

provo un pò a dimenticare

infatti guardo il mare

e non ci penso più..............."

A typical sleep position for journalists.

The Hazards are a mountain range located in the Freycinet National Park on the east coast of Tasmania, Australia. The range is positioned between Coles Bay and Wineglass Bay and are said to be named after local whaler, African-American Captain Richard Hazard. The Hazards are made of granite. Orthoclase, a pink feldspar, gives the mountains their pink tint.

Acantilado de Ogoño

El macizo de Ogoño se sitúa en el límite Este del litoral de la Reserva de la Biosfera; es una pared de 200 metros de altura que penetra en el mar hasta los 20 metros de profundidad. Este paquete calizo pertenece al sistema de arrecifes constituidos principalmente por bivalvos rudistas, braquiópodos, equinodermos, etc., que se desarrolló en el Cretácico inferior (Aptiense, Albiense), cuando la temperatura era más elevada, parecida a la del Caribe actual. Es conocido como el Complejo Urgoniano. La batida de las olas también incide de forma notable sobre el macizo calizo creando varios entrantes, cuevas y sifones en su parte inferior.

   

As I was observing this Eurasian Hummingbird Hawkmoth, it occurred to me that it could be a female, overpositing onto the Valerians. Still awaiting confirmation from iNaturalist.

One of many species of clubtail dragonfly inhabiting the midwest region. Imaged June of 2020 in Anoka County, central Minnesota.

 

Visitors: Feel free to explore my photostream and albums for various seasonal pix of wildlife/scenics/florals.

Found him delivering meals to the nest. He mostly stayed in bushy areas and only once hopped onto an open position.

 

ISO 2500 (forcefully limited, could have been more) is not to my liking, but the end result looks okay.

NS 227 took just long enough to make it's way to Harrisburg to allow me to get into position at Harris Tower.

 

They also caught a stop signal to allow work train to finish putting away their train. So after a brief pause, they get under way, and what else is there to do but drop the shutter nice and low?

Great White Egret

Hi everyone... I want to give your wonderful guys and gals an update... although I still struggle with chronic pain on a daily basis, some days are better than others. I still cannot shoot like I was used to... stooping, bending over, sitting on the ground, etc as is necessary to shoot macro, still isn't possible for me. For now, I must be content to (re)edit and (re)publish shots in my archives.

 

If you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as little as the price of a coffee. Anything would be greatly appreciated. See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you. www.flickr.com/people/jax_chile/
