This a picture from a beauty spot in the Inverclyde area known as Loch Thom. Its name inspired by Eddie Cochrane and his song Summertime Blues. I had heard the song on the radio a few days before this picture was taken but I was walking past this loch and I looked at the colours, the song came right back into my head.

It has been a good summer for macro photography. This Hunt's Bumblebee posed nicely. A great season of the years for bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. Unfortunately another winter is right around the corner.

It's winding down. Won't miss the mosquitos...

I love using a Fuji XT-1 with old manual focus lenses for colour photography. This time, the lens was the wonderful Nikkor, pre-AI 135 Sonnar. It's a simple, common and very affordable vintage lens that renders dreamy smooth images.

It will be nice to have the summertime weather back again soon, so thought I'd post a picture from last summer of some wheat crops and an old oak tree in a field...

The only thing I couldn't decide on was which cropped version of this picture I liked the best, as both are cropped and seemed nice in my view,... But crops and cropping does have some interesting meaning for this picture of the crops in the field!...

The thick air and heat of summer is not usually my favorite season for photography, but I do perk up when the dahlias start blooming!

 

I pre-ordered the Nikon MC 105 Macro lens (for Z bodies) and was pleasantly surprised when it arrived in just a few weeks. The real surprise came when I took it out for the first time though and saw how sharp it is - even wide open. I shot at f10 here though to maximize focus throughout the bloom for a change. I had a few macro lenses in the past including the Tamron 90, but nothing like this. It will auto focus all the way down into the macro range which is a plus. I usually use AF for everything as I did here, and taking focus right off of the sensor is a game changer for me with no fine tuning needed.

 

Thank you for your warm and kind visits my flickr friends - you are the best of the best! 💖

From the archives - sunny summer days with the barley growing, the trees in full leaf, and the clouds scudding across the sky!

Last year the barley crop was so poor - 3 months with almost no rain changed the look of the landscape. So it was nice to find this shot in my photo-store!

I got that summertime, summertime sadness

Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness

Got that summertime, summertime sadness

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Think I'll miss you forever

Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky

Later's better than never

Even if you're gone, I'm gonna drive (drive), drive

I got that summertime, summertime sadness

Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness

Got that summertime, summertime sadness

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Lilies are so delightful to admire when in full bloom there is no question as to their beauty and elegance. Also what is spectacular is that along with the full bloom portrayed, it is nice to see that others surround as soon to be blossoming beauties.

EXPLORED June 20, 2010

The weather this weekend has been clear, but there has been a thick haze over the horizon the last few days. You don't get that nice golden light cast over the prairie, but you do get this gorgeous filtered red sun as it sets over the trees.

A singing blackbird makes for a interesting subject.

Dieses Jahr war bei uns ein sehr großes Sonnenblumenfeld und für uns Fotografen genial gelegen. Leider hat es nicht lange geblüht wegen der Trockenheit.....
