It was nice running across this chatty fellow - - a Carolina Wren
I followed it along the trail for a few minutes waiting for a better pose - - I got a series of bursts in about 6 different positions - - this is one of the better ones in my opinion.

Another in my Wave series, this one has mostly crashed back into the sea, with a large amount of spray still lingering at a great height.
I know it seems I post a lot of these images, but to date I have only shown 64 in 9 years on Flickr. I have taken over 3700 photos of storms so far, so the success rate is very low indeed. The biggest problem I have is spotting any with potential among so many, hence the constant revisiting of my work at Porthcawl Lighthouse and the trickle feed to my Photostream, in fact I have another tomorrow.

Dordrecht is a really old city that grew wealthy on its position at a river confluence with important commercial, military and private boat building. It held significant regional and international importance, hosting the 'Synod of Dordrecht' and other important religious meetings.
Thankfully, it escaped much of the widespread destruction of the second world war. Consequently, it is brimming with interesting old architecture and displays an old-time sense of wealth that belies the peaceful and laid back character of its modern-day economic relaxation. The locals are educated and generally proud of their city, which is the sort of place to wander around and explore leisurely, rather than rushing in and out.
The Groothoofdspoort on this photo is a former city gate in Dordrecht that is located at the point where three rivers meet; the Merwede, the Oude Maas, and the Noord.
The building was designed in the 14th century and was originally built with gothic details. The facades were built in 1618 and the tower was added in 1692. The relief above the doorway facing the river was designed by Gillis Huppe in 1618 and shows the Dordrecht maiden sitting in the "Garden of Holland", holding a palm branch in her left hand and the city shield in her right hand, based on an earlier design by the Dordrecht painter Gerrit Gerritsz Cuyp. She is surrounded by 16 city shields of cities who rebelled during the eighty years war. From top right, these city shields are the cities of Monnickendam (monk), Enkhuizen (3 fish), Asperen, Heusden, Schiedam, Vlaardingen, Geertruidenberg, Schoonhoven, Hoorn, Weesp, Leerdam, Naarden, Muiden, Medemblik, and Grootebroek. Under the shields, a Latin inscription states "Unity and peace are the best defence for a city; May my God Jehovah protect me". On the other side of the tower is a relief with the shield of Dordrecht held by two griffins.
The roof was replaced by a tower in 1692 and contains a bell by H.Meurs.
The current occupant "Bellevue Groothoofd hotel culinair", a hotel restaurant in the "Groothoofd" block of buildings including the gate, and where Dordrecht residents can arrange to be wed in the old gate building, claims that the "Hotel Belle Vue" building next to the gate was first mentioned in city documents in 1817
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.

The Canon 100mm Macro Lens shoots like a dream. Here are some of my own tips for creating fantastic bokeh:
- Control depth of field as narrow as possible by setting the lens aperture to maximum, most cases at F/2.8
- Position the subject closer or increase the distance between the subject and the background.
- Shooting in soft and warm light. Backlighting can really bring subjects with fine details to life and intensify the foreground/background bokeh.
- Shooting on the same or lower level as your subject, resulting in more choices of the background.

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!
The Castle of Levizzano is located in a dominant position on the wonderful hills of the homonymous village in the municipality of Castelvetro. Its structure consists of a city wall in the centre of which there is the so-called Torre Matildica - Matildic Tower.
Starting from the 12th century, the fortified complex was restored and enlarged. In particular, next to the tower that was placed to protect the entrance to the Castle, a part of the feudal palace was erected and an underground tunnel was built, which still joins the Palace to the Tower.
Around the 16th century the buildings underwent important transformations: dating back to this period is the so-called "Stanza dei Vescovi" or Bishops’ Room, which has a ceiling with ancient wooden structures and a cycle of Renaissance frescoes. On the main floor, you can enter the charming loggia overlooking the hills dotted with vineyards from the main hall. Campo San Rocco and the ancient former Napoleonic cemetery stand in the immediate vicinity of the Castle.
These Sandhill Cranes are coming into a field nearby so we see more wing positions. Normally they fly 300-400 miles per day and follow the wind currents at an altitude of 3-5000 ft above ground. Using the tailwinds there is not as much need to constantly flap but do so when coming down or climbing up – they are like other fowl using the wings to control the flight.
Another photo I took positioned along the banks of the Bow River in Banff National Park, facing the unmistakable, fortress-like silhouette of Castle Mountain. This shot captures the peak in its full, rugged glory—a massive block of Paleozoic limestone and shale that dominates the skyline between Banff and Lake Louise.
I used a low-angle perspective to turn the river’s rocky bed into a dramatic foreground that leads the eye toward the "battlements" of the mountain. The soft, golden light of Golden Hour casts a warm glow on the rock face while deep reflections shimmer in the still pockets of water.
Castle Mountain is a classic example of a "layer-cake" peak, showcasing distinct horizontal strata formed hundreds of millions of years ago. For a brief period (1946–1979), it was renamed Mount Eisenhower, but local reverence for its original, descriptive name eventually won out.
This image encapsulates the silent, ancient energy of the Canadian Rockies—where the steady flow of the Bow River meets the unmoving giants of the sky.

Clear sky above Durham this afternoon. Headed down to the riverside to catch the sun in the best position for the autumn colours. Took the opportunity to get down to Durham ahead of the lockdown tomorrow.
