I think it wasn't too bad considering it was taken with the lens that came on the camera, and hand held, no tripod.
The last sliver of light at Vestrahorn. We almost didn't go as the sky was sooo bland, but it turned out much better than we had thought (or hoped for). If you've not been, it is a magical place and well worth the trip! 20221008 Vestrahorn 1v1

Just a sliver of light on the horizon was enough to produce some nice colour at Old Hartley and St Mary's
The moon was setting when I captured this image. There's something fascinating about seeing just a sliver of light on the moon while the rest is dark and reflecting very little light. I pretty much turned this into a graphic in my post-processing.
Though captured on November 25th, 2022, the information below the image says it was taken today, the 13th of December. But that is the upload date. I have tried to change it but there is a glitch and it won't let me correct it to the right date :( Oh well.
The last of a pleasant evening's light streams between distant hills to illuminate train 925 climbing up above Karitane. This shot was a real rush and what wouldn't I have given for another 30 seconds on the train here, to fly a bit further left...
A successful chase with Captain Wallace at the controls yielded a nice bag of pictures this evening. With the train now running a little earlier (and not stopping in Oamaru this day), who would have thought you could get a sunny picture of 925 at Merton in mid-October?

Meier's waves at the Getty Center in Los Angeles. I got off work at 8 p.m. and took this on my way to the car....
The great thing (and most frustrating) about photography is you never know what the conditions are going to be when you get to your shooting destination. All the apps, planning, weather predictions in the world are great, but those tiny variables can completely change everything! This particular sunrise had the potential for a good one, but between the time I went to bed and woke up, the clouds showed up and changed everything. I was up anyways, why not freeze my butt off. In the end it actually turned out to be a really cool morning. The sky turned pink for a good 5 mins, before the thick clouds snuffed out the colour. All that was left was this tiny sliver of light on the horizon (which I thought looked really cool).

The humidity has been unusually high for the desert southwest. The heat index was 120F last week! But the haze enhances the atmospheric perspective of the receding hills.
Here a sliver of light breifly illuminates the roadside flowers, mostly Indian Blankets and Engelmann's Daisies. Another image shot out the window of my vehicle.

A sliver of light catches a BNSF detour reroute on CN's Superior Sub near Proctor Junction. These are running due to Grassy Point swing bridge being out-of-service.
MALACHI: *To himself.* “Mirror, mirror that is the wall. Who is the handsomest bear of all. Of course it’s obvious that I am the handsomest bear of all. How co…”
DADDY: “Malachi! What on earth are you doing with those shards of mirror?”
MALACHI: “Well, I should have thought that was obvious, Daddy!” *Shakes head.* “I’m admiring my reflection.” *Preens.*
DADDY: “Indeed, they create a multitude of Malachis.”
MALACHI: “Well, one Malachi is hardly enough, Daddy.”
DADDY: *Quietly.* “That is debatable.”
MALACHI: “What was that, Daddy? Do stop mumbling and annunciate your words.”
DADDY: “I was just saying I was going to throw those shards of mirror into the dustbin, Malachi.”
MALACHI: “Oh no! Don’t do that, Daddy!”
DADDY: “Why ever not Malachi?”
MALACHI: “Well, I quite like being a multitude.” *Turns back to his reflection and says to himself.* “Mirror, mirror that is the wall. Who is the handsomest bear of all. Of course it’s obvious that I am the handsomest bear of all. How could anyone think otherwise?”
The theme for "Smile on Saturday" on the 18th of February is "a look in the mirror", a challenge in which a photo must contain a reflection in a real mirror.
A little over a month ago, I was using my full length piece of mirror for some photography in the garden, when a gust of wind blew it over and it shattered against the hardwood planks of my terrace. Oh what a noise it made! So, I cleaned up all the thousands of broken pieces and Hoovered up the millions of tiny slivers and shards, but I was left with a few large pieces that thanks to the backing in the mirror, did not break. I’m British, and being so, I have an inherent wish to save things that “might come in handy one day”, so I kept the four largest pieces of mirror and put them away. It seems that three of the four pieces came in very handy for Malachi to admire himself and create a multitude of Malachis… which may or may not be a good thing. I hope that you like my choice of image for the theme, and that it makes you smile!
If you follow my photostream, you may know that I collect 1:12 size miniatures, some of which have featured in past themes in the "Looking Close on Friday" and "Smile on Saturday" groups. This includes Malachi the bear. Malachi I acquired in mid-March 2020 (and mid Coronavirus) from a wonderful Melbourne stalwart toy shop: Dafel Dolls and Bears, when I went looking for a present for one of my goddaughters. Malachi is designed by Mary and hand-made by Wendy Joy in Australia. He has articulated arms and legs, and an extremely sweet face. Malachi was the name he came with, written by hand on his little tag.

After a couple hours of sleep from photographing the stars, I woke up to photograph the sunrise and was greeted by this tiny sliver of a moon setting. No clouds, but a nice color gradient.

A narrow gap breaks in the cloud at just the right moment for a beautiful sunrise on the Norfolk Coast.
It was a full day today with not much time to think of photography. My daughter and I planted flowers, herbs, and strawberries in pots this afternoon. I decided to shoot a quick image of the light streaming through the fence kissing this flower. The color was too intense so I converted it to black and white. I wanted something to honor my day and feel that the sliver of light represents the hope I have as my world keeps opening up.
