Scratched glass of an aquarium with the sun shining through the surface with a sealion swimming towards it.

Upgrading equipment. Adapting studio. Testing lights. Experimenting with exposure. I'm scratching around with unexplored technical or visual ideas.

 

Once in a while I have a few images to share and find a new direction for deeper exploration.

 

Here are the results of my most recent session of scratching around in the studio!

 

COMMENTS WELCOME!!!!!

Royal Spoonbill, Lake Illawarra

The Rosemary Beetle feeds on rosemary and lavender. I found this happy duo on our rosemary bush. The beetles are irridescent and hard to photograph for me.

Scratch my ass, and I'll scratch yours. This is Cowboy my donkey who was born on Mother's Day 20 years ago. He loves to have his ears and ass scratched and if he doesn't get scratched he'll bunt you in the balls. I should have named him after Eeyore on Winnie the Pooh because of his sad bray (unlike his mother's harsh cry) as well as his sometimes gloomy attitude but I thought Cowboy would toughen him up to keep the coyotes at bay. Donkeys have powerful front and back feet that can strike out at a predator if needed.

One from last spring.

I took this image using my car as a hide.The Curlew was standing close to the road and was relaxed enough to start cleaning and scratching itself infront of me.

Taken in the Peak District.

Another from my dramatic bird series

 

Aurora, Ontario

This is a close-up of the roof of the bicycle shed at The National Physical Laboratory that I photographed through the border railings. I thought the shapes resembled palm tree fronds or the talons of a bird of prey.

Happy Fence Friday!

This wild vixen needs to quell that itch near the ear as she keeps her eye on me to make sure I don’t make any sudden moves. I took this last March about this time and I was there today to see her but didn't get any nice shots. One of the prettiest foxes I've seen, she is the photographers dream!

This little chap was enjoying a really good scratch in the dappled sunlight.

 

The expressions and poses these little guys make never cease to amaze and enchant me.

As always I extend my sincere appreciation to all those who take the time to stop by and comment on my photos.

Life goes Round and Round...

I tried to make an etching with a very slow working agent, but the covering with paint and asphalt was detached and so I had to take the plate out of the etching agent. There were some awesome odidations to be seen on the bottom side of the plate. Now I printed the front side and it worked, insted of very shallow etchings. Will show that next!

Taken at Yzerfontein on the West Coast. A small village that consists mainly of holiday homes.

A Great Horned Owl gives a lazy, sleepy scratch while roosting in the pines.

A squirrel takes a break from eating to scratch an itch, it was funny watching him as he almost lost his balance.
