A Common Tern hovers silently above the cool waters scanning for its next meal. On the verge of an invisible precipice, a moment will pass and it will dive headlong into the sea. Although it hovers a dozen feet above the ocean's interface, it will descend, break the surface, capture its prey, and return to the air again in merely a fraction of a second. Its dark tipped bill hints at a point in time and space, precise, yet still indeterminate. Its wings taper and disappear into the cool, salty air, holding it aloft, and its deeply forked tail mocks a continuum from which it recently emerged. Balancing joyfully on the breeze, it is the essence of agility. It seems that with a simple turn it could almost disappear into thin air. In fact, it will, reappearing again just above the rippling waves, along with a taste of the sea. #iLoveNature #iLoveWildlife #WildlifePhotography in #NewJersey #Nature in #NorthAmerica #USA #CommonTerns #DrDADBooks #WildlifeConservation

This is some kind of a Cereus variant that was incredibly red. I turned down the color to get some contrast. I shot these today on a walk through Stan Hywet hall and Gardens in Akron, OH. Quite a lovely place..
singular essentials

A camera toss series. I hadn't done any of these in a long time and thought it good to revisit the bare essentials considering it was a camera I had not used for the technique yet. A single white LED provides the light source, exposures vary from .7sec to 2sec. What is produced is essentially an inverted physiogram (inverted in that it illustrates camera motion rather than subject motion) and can tell you alot about the movement possible with a given model of camera.
I also had been meaning to do this simplistic series for a while, because I feel achieving something aesthetically wonderful does not require an overly complicate light source, the beauty is ultimately due to the motion.
All images in this series are directly from my Kodak Easyshare 3.1mp camera, no photoshop, no cropping or manipulation other than image rotation.
