Have you ever experienced a momentary encounter with someone when your eyes locked and it struck a deep chord within you? Sometimes we can remember that instant connection for years afterwards even though in the scheme of things it was a pretty insignificant event.
A couple of days ago, my wife and I were returning to town after a couple of hours scouring the countryside for friendly encounters with things that move. As we neared town, I spotted an eagle resting on a smaller tree as he surveyed a wetland pond that was trying to escape the clutches of winter.
After watching for a bit, he decided to leave. Nearly every time I am within 50 yards of an eagle and they get up to leave, they normally head away from me and are soon gone far from me.
But this one decided to circle above the pond and then came back to check me out as if he couldn’t believe what he saw the first time. Always a thrill to look into the eyes of an eagle.

I didn’t manage to take fields of poppy images this spring, but I did get the chance to pull over the car, hop out, and take some minimal shots off the side of the road. Just a simple, minimal poppy image.

To hold back the bright sunlight I used a 5 stop filter + polarizer.

With the 'bull horns' exhaust end leading, Class 122 single car unit TDB975540, the Western Region Route Learning Saloon set L102, 'charges' into Gloucester on 20th March 1981. The 'Bubble Cars' as they became affectionately known, were essentially a Class 116 Driving Motor Brake Second with a cab at both ends. This unit was built by the Gloucester Carriage & Wagon Co. and entered service as W55016 in July 1958, allocated to Southall depot. November 1975 saw it enter departmental service, where it remained as a route learning vehicle, until withdrawn in May 1993. It was disposed of by MC Metals in Glasgow in the July of that year.

Shot about an hour back where Swallows are seldom seen - passing by my yard. Made me wonder why it's still here, with the chilly weather we've had this last few days i'd imagine that flying insects would be getting pretty scarce by now. So much so I have the heating running, albeit on a candlepower setting; just enough to restore a bit of comfort now that Autumn's beginning to make its early presence tangible..

There are no rules and regulations for perfect composition. If there were we would be able to put all the information into a computer and would come out with a masterpiece. We know that's impossible. You have to compose by the seat of your pants.
-Arnold Newman-
And this saying held true for this shot. I had mere minutes to compose and shoot as many shots possible as this light was changing so quickly. 10, 15 minutes maximum and the sun was up, the colours gone.
Do it justice, view it on black
I love a good double exposure but not this time. This painting is one I bought outside Lisboa, Portugal from a dude of a street artist A.D. Smith. Reflected in the glass that's in front is outside, the fern, hills and railing. Wrap your noggin around that, (brain gymnastics 101 aka rolly polly lloln).
The leaves are falling from the trees so early this year with the continuing drought in southern England. Stressed trees are shedding leaves to maximise the available water and stay alive. Hoping to finally see some rain this week but not much is forecast! Thousands of beautifully coloured and very dry and brittle leaves to choose from for this weeks topic though!
