Isn't it strange how sometimes we see different things in everyday situations.
A bird disguised as a cloud
A face on a lighthouse....Bamburgh
I watched the water sweeping, curving, around the pebbles on the beach. Like giant tentacles of a monster hidden below, reaching out to grab and pull you back into it's grasp...
Ive either got an over active imagination, or possibly I need to take a little more water with it!
This reminded me a bit of a squid. I thought a large expanse of blak could represent the deep ocean.
Orange tentacles grasping for the last sunlight. There's plenty for everyone this evening. Take it and have an energy to grow.
We were on our way from Bend Oregon over to the coast and about half way you enter a world of mossy forest and beautiful blue rivers. I couldn't help pulling over and walking out on this bridge to capture this wonderful backlit scene. Thanks for having a look!!! Kris...
Delicate threadlike tentacles surround the oral disk of a Plumose Anenome. Genus Metridium. Hopkins Point. Monterey Bay, Northern California, U.S.A.
"...Tentacle (sense of taste) we can distinguish between the boundaries of art and pornography. I thought that art would have a different meaning from pornography even though it had the same erotic impression..."
This rock formation at White Pocket is called the "Octopus" for its shape and radiating arms. When we got there in the morning, it was clear blue skies but an approaching snowstorm at sunset brought some exquisite light to these rocks.
This is the same tree, in a different season, as my original Tentacles photo. The first one was taken in early spring. This one was taken in summer, when all of the foliage filled in. Same tree, different look.
I have completely ignored my love for seascapes over the last year or so, instead using every bit of me-time to get out in the hills and mountains. We're now on family holiday in Northumberland, which is a great excuse to see if I still remember how to shoot seascapes.
This building bears the poetic name "Block 46C".
To me, it looks like it's being swallowed by a giant squid.

Bandon Beach Oregon sand patterns - I enjoy walking around at the beach looking for obscure things to photograph. Many are things that many would step over or on.
On the north island, we planned to hike up New Zealand’s Mount Fuji, Mount Taranaki. During our research, we came across many images of the so-called reflection tarn, where - if conditions allow - you can shoot this beautiful symmetrical mountain together with its perfect reflection. However, as we learned from the campground manager the evening before, Mount Taranaki is rarely not (!) shrouded in clouds, and even if it is, you still need completely calm conditions with no rain which is very unlikely. Also, we wanted to do the hike that afternoon/evening, thinking that it would only take half an hour (we apparently mixed things up during our research), but the campground manager was talking about 2-3 hours one-way and therefore we decided to postpone it until tomorrow.
The next morning we had a quick breakfast and headed to the parking lot right next to the Mangorei trail head, but the sky next to the burning clouds was pretty dark, indicating that it will start to rain soon. So we spent the next half hour checking multiple rain forecasts of different apps which predicted a 40% chance of rain in the next few hours with an expected medium intensity. Assuming 6 hours for the round trip, we would be back before the heavy rain started, so we told ourselves: We’ve upgraded our rain gear and if we are not going to do this hike, what are we going to do instead? Since we didn’t want to waste any time in this amazing country, we put on our rain pants and our rain jackets, put the rain covers over our backpacks and started the ascent.
The trail was very well maintained, and as we learned from a local that we met on the way, the upgrade with wooden boardwalks and stairs was apparently a recent one. After half an hour of hiking, I joked that they couldn’t possibly have installed boardwalks all the way to the hut, but it turned out that they actually had (and perhaps even more impressively, they didn’t charge for it). As predicted, the rain also started and got heavier, and the further we got, the more it felt like wandering in another world: The trees got more gnarly, the moss on all their branches got thicker and greener, and everything was just so incredibly beautiful and different from the forests I had known until then. About two-thirds of the way, the rain intensity slightly subsided, and I just had to stop at these otherworldly trees to take a few images of their branches looking like moss-covered tentacles. I kind of regret not having taken more images along the way, but the rain was just too heavy and I didn’t want to risk damaging my camera.
After approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes we arrived at the Pouakai hut, and even though we could see the hut from a distance, we couldn’t spot any trace of Mount Taranaki, which was completely shrouded in clouds. The local we met also told us that one can see the reflection tarn from the hut, but we couldn’t spot it and also didn’t bother to look for it since the view was a wash of grey. So we sat down in the hut, ate our cereal bars and by the time we decided to start the descent, it even started snowing. Well, better a little bit of snow than heavy rain, right? Unfortunately, it soon started to rain more heavily and so we hurried and left the cameras in our bags, taking only a few quick iPhone snapshots along the way. Back at the parking lot, we were pretty soaked (but our camera gear was luckily still save and dry), and as soon as we got into our motorhome, the skies cracked open and it was pouring rain, meaning that the rain forecasts were right and we made it back just in time. That day and hike was definitely adventurous and even though I couldn’t take the shot I hoped, I ended up with this image of an amazing and otherworldly rainforest that holds so many memories. I hope you like it!
My apologies if these drop shots are getting monotinous. I appreciate I'm not the only photographer uploading such images to Flickr but I am finding my new drop kit highly addictive!
This is a two drop collision using full fat milk with some blue food colouring added to the mix.
