This is the new shopping centre in Las Vegas. The building on the right is a Prada store. I took a similar shot in a different orientation which I will put in the comments.
It’s always fascinated me that in landscape photography the popular mantra is to have front to back sharpness. Now this is all very understandable, after all who wants to look at a pretty picture of their favourite location and be frustrated by parts being out of focus? Well ‘not me’ I hear you announce from behind your leaf tea saucer, whilst sitting excitedly admiring the Victoria sponge cake on oh so attractive display in the window at Betties. But therein lays an avenue for mischief, creative of course!
Now there are plenty of things you can do to help this from a technical point of view, depth of field, focus stacking, or even blending, but why go with the flow towards the middle of the stream? Why not through your paper dollies out, pass on the peppermint tea and head for the next shade establishment. I don’t wonder that you will be chastised by the little finger raising establishment, but who knows what you will find out once you enter the dark shady world. There may even be Rolf Harris on the jukebox playing stairway to heaven in a double ironic way!
Oh if you haven’t been too freaked out by my babble, I’m running a few workshops where I promise that I will not mention Rolf Harris again! One is a Photoshop post processing one, one is the UK Lakes in autumn and one is Whitby in February. Details on www.landscapeinspired.com

Those little things that you stick in the ends of your corn cob so you don't get your fingers messy. In theory anyway.
Ever heard of the Ever-Sharp? Me either. I’m always pleasantly surprised when I see a “Chicago Cluster” camera that I’ve never seen before, and especially happy when I can add it to my collection!

A visitor to our backyard on Saturday morning, standing on the rear fence, this Sharp-shinned Hawk stayed put long enough for me to get my camera and get about ten shots off through the patio door before it flew away..
I think I know why we have no birds in the yard today.

Accipiter striatus
Female Sharp-shinned Hawks are about a third bigger and heavier than males. This is a typical pattern for many hawks and owls, but otherwise rare in the bird world.

Just preparing to launch
I saw him fly in and land. I went for my camera.
I couldn't open the door - he would be gone in an instant.
I shot him through double panned windows. I took 18 shots and this was the 19th. I saw him spread his wings and fly through the view in my camera. The 20th shot was a bare branch.

They keep on building these sharp, tall objects down the coastline, blocking everyone's sun and the cool sea breeze.. What a shame.

The summit of Sharp Tor as day breaks across Dartmoor. Shortly before this, the wind and rain were relentless, sometimes perseverance is the key ;-) Also you can just see the bottom of a stunning rainbow in the distance, I was really hoping that the bank of cloud you see didn't move in to mask it! Thanks for looking.
If you have the time please check out another image of Dartmoor at sunset: www.flickr.com/photos/kingger/5869082650/in/photostream
