Clematis heart

A Palm Warbler enjoys what appears to be quite the soft and luxurious perch.

A late Valentines present.

( Self build lens )

A small garden snail shell, with the aperture wide open at f/2.8 giving a very narrow Depth of Field, highlighting the details in the centre getting much softer towards the edges.

Not feeling 100% this week, so concentrated on some indoor shots

It always annoys me how when I have to go to work my body wants to sleep in for ages, but when I have a weekend I am wide awake at the crack of dawn, what is up with that? It happens to me all the time, I could have slept for hours this morning.... but over the weekend when I had the time to sleep freely my mind would not shut down and I was wide awake most of the night. Does this happen to you ? I must be getting old ( hush now all of you lol I know I am) but I used to sleep anytime and for so long it was disgusting lol now well, now I like sunrise shots cause I may as well get something from these early mornings lol So my goal this week is to go softly softly and have a good work, me, sleep and play ratio and not get into the work work work ratio.

Thank you for the comments on my normal questions, some really good points people made.. it is good to see we are all normal in our abnormality ;)

So have a good week and softly softly, today, tomorrow and yesterday : )Car

As many of you know Polaroid film has gotten very expensive. And the Polaroid55 is the worst! I have a box of 10 year old film and have been using it regardless. this is one. The negative is so washed out you can hardly believe it, but I'm actually getting good images from them. (My color polaroid film from ten years ago is completely gone. Utterly.)

Buschwindrosen haben dieses Jahr so schön geblüht und ich war so gerne im Wald 😁

Getting that soft sky with some clouds in the bokeh ... and then nice sunlight is always a challenge. Then to get the eagle coming in close with the fish was a fine bonus. It looked nice there sporting its extra tail feather ;)

I thought I would desaturate this and give it a little haze to add to the softness, I think it would have been better with a shallower DoF but you live and learn, too busy to re-do it.
