This photo is one of a series taken on our excursion to Pulau Ketam, or Crab Island, located off the west coast of Malaysia leaving from Port Klang. Most islanders live in homes built on stilts with their boats docked near their place of residence.
In port, large ships are commanded by pilots who guide the ships through the harbor.
Once back on the seas, the ship's captain takes over and the pilot is returned to the harbor in a small boat.
The transfer takes place while the ship is underway. With the pilot's boat matching the ship's speed, the pilot is transferred by dropping from the deck.
In this photo, a pilot is transferred from the Nieuw Amsterdam on a winter's solstice cruise from Ft Lauderdale, Florida.

Retrieving loaded propane cars from the Bennington Branch, Lake Paran, North Bennington. January 6, 2021
I didn't know yesterday was Puppy Day so here's my belated contribution. This is our Noah showing us he had what it took to live up to the breed — golden retriever. He loves to bring things over to us. This good buddy will be 8 on November 20.
These blossoms have a little more color to them, but they should be a bright red, not pink. Nevertheless, there must be enough nectar in these blossoms for the bees to be swarming all over them to retrieve as much as they can. This photo was taken shortly after I shot the previous photo.
Joshua is in the center of this picture, taken after he and his Chip Camp colleagues had shot their paper rockets. Joshua's rocket sailed over the entire lawn and landed in a tree on the far side.

a bit of a boring shot, but I ran out of time (packing has begun) or interesting options ... I do have a "Saxon the smartypants" story that goes with this location though so although it's a few weeks old now, here goes:
so one day retrieving here Saxon ran one way while I threw the ball the other, he didn't see where it had gone, so I got him searching "find it"!
When I do that I try not to help or move too much but I do point which of course he isn't so good at following, you know only goes so far away etc. but he actively searches well, just not everywhere ...
Multiple attempts around the park and he couldn't find it, I could see it sort of in the hollow of the ground about half way between where I was and the tree/path on the other side so I gave his nose the benefit of the doubt.
He was getting tired so I called him in to me and directed him straight across the park with a "go" ... often times "go" pre-empts "clock" or "count" which means go around an object (usually a tree) either clockwise or counter-clockwise so he honed in on one of the trees across the other side and swung around it with gusto ... "surely I'll get my ball reward with this" he was thinking ... he came running back to me in hope slowing up when he realized no ball was to be presented ... I was hoping on the trips from me to the treeline he would catch the scent of the ball and would have found it, but he didn't
so I send him out again "go" and he's a little off center for running right over the top of the ball so I throw in another command "over" which means move to his left, which he followed well but spied another tree that he thought I must mean for him to "around" ... he runs around it and starts coming back to me in hope of the ball again, this time a lot closer to running right over the top of the ball, I thought for sure he'd catch the scent of it, but again he didn't ...
so I send him away again "go" then again "over" to get him in a nice position, he spies the tree and heads for it, this time I pull him up back towards me (not sure what words I'm using, maybe just his name), and just as he's about to run right over the ball again "sit" ... I wait as the ball is maybe a foot or two right in front of him, he still doesn't catch the scent so "forward" (not a command I usually use but something to get him up out of the sit and moving slowly, he's already heading my way anyway) then a quick "down" and the ball is literally 2 inches from his nose ... he finally catches the scent of it ... YAH!!!!
anyway not sure how easy that is to read and understand as far as stories go, but I enjoyed watching him follow my directions so well to achieve our goal in real circumstances, he's such a smart cookie :-)
Delta the Chessie as she makes the transition from leaping to swimming. Fortunately she is only fetching her ball. Any waterfowl in the vicinity would die of fright!
Retrieved some details and sharpened up significantly. 300mm f/8 capture, boosted color and contrast. Crop of original image.
Saxon swim retrieve - disappointingly we lost 1/2hr of our booking time at Kepala this trip due to a grass fire on the drive there diverting us the "long way around". Some enthusiastic swim retrieves ensued :-)
When Benni gets tired of retrieving her lacrosse ball, she just won't give it back so we can't throw it again. Here she's on the school field which does have green grass, all irrigated with recycled water
She has a lacrosse ball because it's so hard she can't eat it. She can eat tennis balls with ease and Chuck-it balls with a little more work.
The problem with throwing the lacrosse balls is that they're so heavy I'm always scared it'll come down on her and hurt. So I throw it low and try to trick her. Not easy!
he's pretty good, and will swim out to get it too if he feels like it and with some encouragement all by himself :-)

Retrieving from my archives and was a close up shot taken during summer. DOF is really shallow with macro lens. This was not really perfect as I was trying to have most of the tips in focus. It was late and I need to push up my ISO with F4 stop to capture this.
eventually after a 20 min drift of 150+ metres Sophie went in to get her float toy, talk about lazy, its not like she couldn't have got it when the toy first went in, she just stood and ignored it!
we had an interesting walk, we started out in a cold wind but bright sunlight, walked along the shoreline, the weather closed in (as in here) where its actually snowing, then by we left it was bright sunshine again. crazy scottish mountain weather
