A picture from last summer on the deck. We have had lots of snow this winter so the Bears do not get out and they are getting eager for better weather.
Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated.
These wallflowers in the walled garden at Felbrigg National Trust were muted colours but I held the Lensbaby orange quilted Omni in front of the lens.

As I set off for Borde Hill garden yesterday afternoon the sun was shining brightly, but soon after I got there dark clouds started to gather and the wind picked up. With the light disappearing, a slightly dodgy back making it difficult to bend, and a manual focus lens, I mean, what could possibly go wrong? That's why coming home with anything at all was a minor miracle. :)
Taken with a Pentacon Auto 50mm f1.8. lens.
There were four hanging out on the beach where I was. Although this picture shows one running away they weren't very shy. They came close to me several times and stood around a lot (for a Plover).
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 ;)

I took this one while I was playing with ice for the MM theme a few weeks ago but didn't use it as I was a bit doubtful about the limited focus. I used the Lensbaby Pro with Sweet 35 optic and macro converters. Had a little faff with it today and here it is.
Hoping you are all having a wonderful weekend
Photographed while exploring with Junko-san and Teruhide-san. Himure Hachimangu, Omihachiman, Shiga-ken, Japan. November 12, 2019.
During a brief cloudy spell, in Norfolk. Not much of it in focus, but, at least the eye is. Not a true macro image, taken with the Nikon 300mm F4 PF + 1.4 TC. ISO 1000 , no noise reduction added in camera or post processing.
Day 25 - October 2024: A month in 31 pictures
You meet the strangest characters in the woods.
Lensbaby Sol 45
she looks at you. the gaze is direct, calm, an open question. the light is soft, it holds no secrets. but there is a secret, a small, white comma in her ear. she is here, in this moment with you, but she is also somewhere else, listening to a silent soundtrack that you cannot hear. it is the portrait of a modern soul: present and absent, all at once.
Photographed on a Monday afternoon wander with Kiyoshi-san and NJ. Space Lab, East Pender Street, Chinatown, Vancouver. October 5, 2015.
I had a play in the garden yesterday with this dahlia again, this time with the Lensbaby Sol 45 (hence the dreadful title but I couldn't think of another) Macro filter and Omni gold concave reflective.
Looking close on Friday - September Flora. HLCoF
Remembering last spring while awaiting a new one that's about to come. Captured with SMC Pentax-M 50mm F1.7 lens.
I have a vase of dried Straw Flowers and today was the day I could use them.
Happy Macro Mondays
I wish Flikr would just stop with all these changes. Go back to the original.
I have been outdoors with the very old russian prime lens Tair 11A. My lens must be from the very early Production back in 1965 because of its unique Serial Number ! This thing is over 50 Years old and still works like a charm. Build like an russian tank - build for the eternity :)
KMZ Tair 11A 135mm F2.8 (Production Years 1965 - 1995)
