A day in the life of a tern fishing, remarkable problem solving technique, before you can swallow it you must break off its beak...

One for the money, two for the show

I never was ready, so I watch you go

Sometimes you just don't know the answer

'Til someone's on their knees and asks you

 

"She would've made such a lovely bride

What a shame she's fucked in the head, " they said

But you'll find the real thing instead

She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred

 

And hold your hand while dancing

Never leave you standing

Crestfallen on the landing

With champagne problems

No....just having fun.

No problem, I got this. Don't worry, he wasn't as close to the cliff as it seems, though he did switch back shortly after I shot this.

I'd like to say this Northern Copperhead is lying in wait to protect his buddy Garter Snake but in all reality they are just basking buddies. 7-19-16.

During the night people come to this valley to watch the Elk Rut. By first light the road is completely lined with cars and trucks and people. This Bull Elk is trying to get through that line of people and get his herd to the Valley floor. Not an easy task.

Sorry I've not been commenting the past few days, been having a few problems for a while with legs and arms/hand, the arm and hand problems escalated a few days ago, pain in right arm and also fingers on right arm, along with injury to palm of right hand, makes it a bit difficult to type at times. Not too bad this morning so will try to visit later today, at present off to the doctors and then maybe on somewhere to enjoy the summery weather we're experiencing at present.

CHEF clabudak wants us to have fun with math and geometry!

 

➤ Your image must have an overall abstract quality

➤ It must include at least one human body part

➤ Also at least one geometrical shape

➤ And a mathematical or geometrical diagram and/or equation

➤ NO MONOTONES

Well, of course, I was wrong! I HAVE used math quite a bit in my lifetime. All the items pictured were from Pixabay. Text from Picsart.

You won't remember all my

Champagne problems

I got trees to prune.

no time for picture taking.

and.....when I used the timer, I had to run to cover the picture. I forgot to add the black cover.

Thank you to those who have made me their contact. Due to poor health, eye problems and low energy I regret I can't take on any new contacts but nearly always manage to reply to your comments. Please no more than 1 invite.

As time goes on, I'm seeming to become more and more reflective in my thoughts. While this concept covers all things in my life, one part I can easily tie in here are, of course, railroads. When I started taking train pictures some 10+ years ago, they were nothing good - very bad, in fact. I'm still glad I took those pictures, though - nothing is the same in railroading today. What I've found is that it's much easier to look back, or even ahead, than it is to look in the moment. Railroads have reached such an interesting state now that things quite literally change daily - whether it be layoffs, the addition or annulment of turns, or even something as cliche as the retirement of locomotives.

 

As I said, it's hard to see "in the moment" - railroad or not, with anything. So something simple, in this case locomotive retirements, sets the scene here.

 

Last night I had gone out on walk - it was a beautiful evening and I didn't care whether or not I'd shoot anything, just wanted to get out of the house on foot. Well, I stumbled across IHB 2924, an SD20 originally built WAY back in 1960. The three SD20s have been endangered for a few months now, so figured I'd try to get a nice sunset shot of it. Flash forward three hours later, a Facebook message would tell me that an IHB employee said 2924 will be gone in two weeks. The other two will remain, but too many problems plague this one. Gone, 2 weeks from this photo.

 

Why do we shoot trains? An alternative art form yes, a passive hobby yes, but what about documenting history? Something a lot of us "younger generation" fans don't think about. Perhaps it's time we start thinking more about this.

Avant, quand il était là, c'était silencieux.

C'était sombre, mais notre noirceur nous enveloppait dans une brume voluptueuse.

On s'enfonçait dans l'obscurité de l'autre, on y retrouvait nos démons, et j'abandonnais

mes problèmes pour tomber dans les siens.

I have sorted the problem out. their was nothing wrong with blouse all along the problem lay with the skirt.

 

I think the blouse makes a cute mini dress what do you think?

:V So troll.

 

Thanks to Eclipse because this wouldn't not be possible without his help LOL.

 

45. I'll most likely end up doing some sort of Scene or something that uses all 45 and it will be legit.

A man walks in the dank underbelly of Philadelphia, on his way to fix what no one else had the courage to.

 

Part of a series of images I hope to collect these next few months.

are you here to make your confession, my son?

yes, father. it's my first time. I'm not sure if I can do it.

of course you can. what are your sins, my son?

you promise not to tell anyone?

you can rely on me. in fact, it's nothing personal at all. go ahead, ask me if I care.

you don't care?

whatever you did is definitely not my problem. no way. isn't that comforting?

somehow it's not exactly what I thought.

you see? I knew I could put your mind at ease.

yeah. something like that.

Pittosporum Leaf.

 

The immediate problem with the Macro Mondays Speckled theme this week was that I had already eaten all the chocolate eggs (suitably speckled) at Christmas. That was probably wise seeing at the house was filled with chocolate gannets at the time, but it did leave me with problem as to what to do for the theme.

 

Things got worse. All the bean seeds in the garden shed turned out not to be speckled!

 

But there was an upside to this disappointing discovery - I was already outside during a brief lull in the rain, and so was encouraged to wander around looking for inspiration.

 

This is a leaf from the Pittosporum bush by the front gate. Pittosporums are lovely plants with small characterful leaves and fine dark branches. The leaves can be shiny, crinkly or variegated depending on the variety. This is a non-shiny, non-crinkly, variegated type.

 

The leaf is 3.5 centimetres long though the bush is bigger than I am - think six foot six (who are you kidding?? :) ). Interestingly as I tried to wrest a sample off I also discovered that the twiggy branches are tough and aromatic when damaged.

 

The reason this plant was interesting is that, when the leaves are damaged, the damaged parts turn purple. In winter when the leaves are growing slowly they are often covered in purple spots, as is this one.

 

This image was taken using my cheap and cheerful LED lightbox to capture the leaf veins. Ironically the transmitted light caused most of the spots to disappear (they must be largely on the surface and transparent). Ah well… it's still an interesting image.

 

The title comes from memories of teenage angst in winter when, just like this leaf's spots, the acne was always worst (not mine obviously ;) ).

 

Also for 7DWF group's Macro & Close-up themed Wednesday.

 

Thank you for taking time to look. I do hope you enjoy the image. Happy Macro Monday to all my friends and to everyone else too. :)

 

[LED lightbox; tripod; remote release; manual focus; VR off.

Lightroom: bumped contrast, vibrancy, clarity and saturation. In the colour channels saturated green, red and magenta.

In Affinity Photo clarity filter and High Pass layer with Linear Light blend mode for sharpening (better results than Unsharp Mask); slight dark vignette tailored for shape.

I tried lots of ideas and approaches but simple proved once again to be better. Still experimentation was fun and educational :) ]

thanks for all views, faves and comments ... :o)
