A male great horned owl flew in for a drink at Ayer Lake at Boyce Thompson Arboretum. But only the paranoid survive so he took the time to scope things out between drinks.
This from the BioSpere in Potsdam, Germany just outside Berlin. It's a great place of reptiles, butterflies, birds and an absolute array of plant and flower species. As I mentioned in another posting from the BioSphere this was a challenge with no flash but I think this worked out.
I cannot wait to get back there at some point.
Belated HNY to everyone and I hope everyone's 2019 is going to be great.
I've been so busy recently I can't post as much and I haven't been able to get out as much with the camera, but anyway, much love to everyone and as always, thank you! :)
I was checking out the Cimarron River area in prep for aspen color season. It's especially pretty, from the pics I've seen.

A little bit more of a horizontal stretch instead of a vertical stretch but I have to say that these little greenies have a bag of tricks that will rival any bird in the world!! Saw a number of these little characters on the bayou today but none of them were very cooperative!
I'm a bit late to the party this evening but I will get there!!

The United Nations is working towards expanding their powers yet again. If you fail, try again: write and rewrite, package and repackage, until it’s accepted. This is another step towards world governance.

I'll be driving to Glacier this weekend to spend some time eye level with the mountain gods. Most of the logistics are pinned down, but I am left with one nagging question: which panoramic pinhole to take? I know for a fact that my bag will have one, and only one, pano pinhole in it. Glacier is too appropriate a place for such cameras to leave them all at home. Likewise, it seems way too redundant to take more than one. My choices are between three: the 6x12 Holga WPC, the 6x12 curved plane Reality So Subtle (with filter thread) or the 6x17 curved plane Reality So Subtle with two pinholes. Between those I think the 6x17 is at the bottom of the list. It has already been to Glacier, after all it made this image. The 6x12 Reality So Subtle is my newest pinhole addition and the one I have used the least. But looking back through my Holga WPC images lately I am reminded at just how capable a camera the WPC is. Plus it is so compact and light... and I do plan to get some miles in so every ounce counts.
Thankfully I have just under 36 hours to make up my mind. Not a bad decision to have to wrestle with.

My friend is famous as a photographer of HDR in Japan. He often makes this signboard the subject. His work is in contrast to my photograph and is very clear, and it is impressive.
I enjoyed photography in Sunshine City on that day. However, I may like this shot most.
On March 8, 2015 in Ikebukuro.

HDRの写真家として著名な友人が、この看板を主題にしています。 彼の作品は僕の写真とは対照的でとても鮮明で印象的です。
この日ぼくはサンシャインシティで撮影を楽しみましたが、このショットが一番気に入っているかもしれません。
