Some focus stacking again. Tamron 9 + Canon 25mm extension tube. Sorry about the cobweb.. but he was got from the inside edge of the bathroom window where he had obviously met his end :-( But stunning eyes up close. Makes me think of a world map!

The first snow of the season has fallen at the highest elevations of the San Francisco peaks above Flagstaff in early October as Q LPCLAC6 passes through Maine on the western slope of the Arizona divide.
What's better than waking up to a stack of pancakes ? ...a stack of pandas of course !

For a landbound tourist, a visit to South Stack Lighthouse is a jaunt down a well made path and over a bridge, and a small grumble over the £5 charge for the privelige of setting foot on the small island.
From a sailors point of view, the lighthouse marks one of the most terrifying of Anglesey's headlands. A big tide ripping one way, with a brisk wind blowing in the other can conspire to generate enormous standing waves resulting in memorably frightening passages.

This is my first go at stacking multiple images in Photoshop, using the 'mean' method, (7 images).
Given the conditions on the day, I'm really happy with the result I've achieved and I'm fairly close to the image I had pre-visualised.
There is plenty of room for improvement, but as a first step, I'm very happy with it.
Your comment and critique is most welcome!

Sea stacks and surf on an overcast evening, Crescent City, California.
The circumstances of this photograph were just a bit unusual, and it is not quite the photograph that I thought I’d be making when I recently visited the coastline at Crescent City. Because the days are so long right now, we decided to go out for an early dinner, planning to head back out into the field to photograph an hour or so before sunset. The plans was not totally solid, but I had this spot in mind as one of the possibilities, as it more or less in Crescent City. We finished dinner and it was still too early for the photography I had in mind, so we did a bit of exploring before we ended up back at this post.
I had photographed these very rocks a couple of years ago, and this time I was imagining something with sunset light, the colorful ocean and sky, and perhaps some dramatic shadows. The conditions had something else in mind. To the north a line of clouds was arriving, likely the result of a weak incoming cold front. When it became apparent that the brilliantly colorful sunset I imagined was not to be (though something else interest did eventually happen) I rethought the mood I wanted to suggest and began to see the appeal in this framing of the scene, focusing on the foreground island with the more distant sea stacks closer to the top of the frame.

Focus-Stacked image of Duffus Castle, comprising of 35 captures to enhance F/B focus.
The castle is situated on the Laich of Moray, a fertile plain that was once the swampy foreshore of Spynie Loch. This was originally a more defensive position than it appears today, long after the loch was drained.
The motte is a huge man-made mound, with steep sides and a wide ditch separating it from the bailey. The whole site is enclosed by a water-filled ditch, which is more a mark of its boundary than it is a serious defensive measure.
Duffus Castle was built by a Flemish man named Freskin, who came to Scotland in the first half of the 1100s. After an uprising by the ‘men of Moray’ against David I in 1130, the king sent Freskin north as a representative of royal authority.
He was given the estate of Duffus, and here he built an earthwork-and-timber castle. Freskin’s son William adopted the title of ‘de Moravia’ – of Moray. By 1200, the family had become the most influential noble family in northern Scotland, giving rise to the earls of Sutherland and Clan Murray.
In about 1270, the castle passed to Sir Reginald Cheyne the Elder, Lord of Inverugie. He probably built the square stone keep on top of the motte, and the curtain wall encircling the bailey. In 1305, the invading King Edward I of England gave him a grant of 200 oaks from the royal forests of Darnaway and Longmorn, which were probably used for the castle’s floors and roofs.
By 1350, the castle had passed to a younger son of the Earl of Sutherland through marriage. It may have been then that the keep was abandoned, possibly because it was beginning to slip down the mound, and a new residence established at the north of the bailey.
Viscount Dundee, leader of the first Jacobite Rising, dined in the castle as a guest of James, Lord Duffus in 1689, prior to his victory against King William II’s government forces at Killiecrankie. Soon after, Lord Duffus moved to the nearby Duffus House. The castle quickly fell into decay.
More cute little frogs from my SIL's place, stacked to look cheery with their funny grinning mouths. It took me several goes at stacking the frogs, they just didn't want to co-operate....
ANSH 123 - 4. Stack It
So here it is, then – Koh Ta Pu, also known as James Bond Island. It’s in the magical setting of Phang Nga Bay, one of the undisputed jewels in Thailand’s marine crown. The bay, covering some 400 sq kms, is an area of outstanding limestone cliffs and stacks, mangroves, sea grass beds, coral reefs and intertidal wetlands.
And here, left of frame, is Koh Ta Pu, the stack which featured in the James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun starring Roger Moore as 007 and Christopher Lee as the villain Scaramanga. The stack rises to some 21 metres and has a diameter of around 4 metres at sea level and 8 metres at the top. Although it’s a major tourist site and sight, no boats are allowed anywhere near it because of its vulnerability to erosion and eventual collapse. You view it from a distance. And what a view!
South Stack, Anglesey, Wales
South Stack is an island situated just off #HolyIsland on the northwest coast of #Anglesey. It is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular #SouthStackLighthouse. The cliffs are 130m high on average. Standing here you can see sea traffic in the Irish sea between Belfast and Liverpool and Cardiff. The jagged rocks and monoliths at the base offer a spectacular view with shallow, emerald waters - and are as deadly should you trip and fall.
These #Precambrian cliffs are one of my favourite in the whole of UK, and are home to some of the most important sea bird colonies in #Wales. During June and July the sea cliffs here are packed with sea birds - mainly auks including puffin, razorbill and guillemot.
From the cliff tops here you can look down and watch the birds swimming, as they fly underwater in search of fish and sand eels.
During the breeding season up to 3,000 Guillemots and 700 Razorbills will nest here, precariously balancing their eggs on the narrow ledges.
You'll also find a small Puffin colony here and predatory Great Blacked-backed Gulls swooping down to grab chicks from any unattended nests.
Aside from the bird life, #SouthStack is also famed for its plant life and one plant in particular, can only be found here in the whole of Britain.
The plant in question is known as the Spathulate Fleawort and is a rather plain yellow flower, not dissimilar to a tall daisy with yellow petals. You'll find it growing along the edges of the sea cliffs, so tread carefully.

Sea Stacks, Bandon Beach, Oregon.
Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,

London Arch (formerly London Bridge) is an offshore natural arch formation in the Port Campbell National Park, Australia. The arch is a significant tourist attraction along the Great Ocean Road near Port Campbell in Victoria. This stack was formed by a gradual process of erosion, and until 1990 formed a complete double-span natural bridge.
The span closer to the shoreline collapsed unexpectedly on 15 January 1990, leaving two tourists stranded on the outer span before being rescued by helicopter. No one was injured in the event. Prior to the collapse, the arch was known as London Bridge because of its similarity to its namesake.

Trying my hand a cloud stacking with mixed results but I quite liked how this one turned out. This is a blend of 11 x 110 sec exposures taken @ Newport Beach, NSW. A storm was rolling up the coast which made for some nice clouds.

My wife has carefully balanced these pumpkins in the backyard. You think I'm going to let that pass? The bottom one looks like it's getting squished.
