See, I can walk on two legs just like you!
This wee fella was posing for me on the old cemetary in Sidmouth. I packed my Canon 300 mm zoom lens on purpose as I haven't used it for ages - just to get a different view of familiar settings. In the case of the squirrels it was a fabulous opportunity.
I've had this for years and am still not sure if this is a dinosaur, a dragon, or even a lizard ... ?
Another shot from a couple of days ago when I I took a couple of my little ornaments for a trip to the beach.

Manual focus, handheld and into the backlight. Sorry for the overexposed sun, but I only had one shot. Focus on the nose, because manual and it was extremely difficult.
Thank you for all faves & comments. I´m a bit busy right now, but i try to catch up soon.

The "Vatican of Coffee" is across the street, and all I care about is the vintage scooter opposite. Melrose Avenue, Seattle. July 3, 2016.
Sorry I haven't been posting on here. I just haven't been at my computer for a bit and Luke (my cat) is having health issues so I just haven't felt much need to spend a lot of time on here doing photography stuff. I tried to keep posting on my Instagram because it's on my phone but yeah it's been rough. I also been busy doing non photography work that has been exhausting.
Freezing cold, but sunny afternoon. This Daisy seemed to to have enjoyed it. Captured with Tair 11A lens.

This is the entrance to a conservation area. Sad to think there is a need for a sign like this let alone that it's been vandalised. HFF

Just for a change from tulips, some snowdrops from my garden. I've taken a few images so they may be more to come.
I called this snowdroops as from this angle they do seem rather droopy ;)

Dont forget to fave!
A close-up view of a vivid pink Cosmos bipinnatus flower, also known as Mexican aster, captured on a walk through Longmont, Colorado. The petals are wide and gently notched, radiating outward from a dense yellow center of tiny disk florets. The shallow depth of field lets the intricate structure of the flower shine against a softly blurred background of natural tones.
This image was taken in early afternoon using the Nikon Zf paired with the Nikon F-mount Micro 105mm f/2.8 macro lens via FTZ adapter, showcasing this versatile lens’s ability to render fine floral detail with rich color.
One of several Anna’s hummingbirds (Calypte anna) who frequents the backyard feeder perched on a branch of the backyard pine tree. This one is a male with its iridescent throat patch called a gorget. Saanich, Vancouver Island, BC.
I singled out this photo as I was mesmerized by the bokeh...truly magical! This photo was taken with a Nikkor 70-300mm telephoto lens at 300mm, F5.6...a winning recipe for some beautiful bokeh!
In photography, Bokeh is a Japanese word - the transliteration of a Japanese word for "blur" - describing the subjective aesthetic quality of out-of-focus areas of an image projected by a camera lens. The term comes from the Japanese word boke (暈け or ボケ), which means "blur" or "haze", or boke-aji (ボケ味), the "blur quality".

Day 173/365:
Definitely Dreaming - Brightly coloured
A day out with my camera club today. We went to a lovely little artisan bakery and cafe for lunch. They had this fabulous vibrant pottery which I assumed was for Pride week but apparently not, they just love vibrant stuff.

I went back to the most amazing beach while away on holiday - my own personal shell Nirvana (aka Aramoana Beach, Otago). The first part of the beach is amazing - it's just one huge deep pile of shells. I sat down and didn't move any more than 2 feet in 3 hours!
This is a pāua shell on a shell embedded rock.
>> Here are more of my beach finds on flickr :-)
Another one i originally sorted out, because of lack of sharpness and the overexposed color. But sometimes it´s hard to delete what you´ve done. Even if it´s far from good or perfect. So forgive me the lack of sharpness (it´s a Trioplan!) and the over exposed pink (my fault).

My first attempt in levitation. Hope you like it. And yes, there is a plenty of room to grow.
