Pond
An area of water smaller than a lake, often artificially made
Ponder
To think carefully about something, especially for a noticeable length of time
Ponderings is a series of semi-abstract photos of water features with vegetation, in which the light seems to play a game with our perception. The works not only contain reflections, but perhaps also invite us to reflect. From this principle, the name Ponderings originated.
Was immer du tust, vergiss nicht, dass wir nur diese eine Welt zum Leben haben. Wenn wir sie schützen und mit Ehrfurcht behandeln, wird sie es uns danken.
We only have this one world to live in. Don't forget that. If we treat her well, she will thank us.

"Pineapple juice doesn’t come in a can—it comes in a hard, spiky shell called a pineapple. Pineapples are great and all, but of all things to grow, up is the most profitable.” - Jarod Kintz

What a luxury that would be !
While I sit here at the computer with a hot water bottle strapped to my sciatica via a knotted flanno shirt, and another hottie waiting for me already in bed ( hot water bottle ), the pain is finally easing and I just want to be lulled to sleep, with no dogs barking at wallabies, no getting up and down to let the girls in and out ... in and out, all flamin' night ... just want to ease my mind of all the stuff going on lately, all the things I'm supposed to be doing but can't, all the humans who've annoyed the crap outta me lately, all the favours other people expect from me with no thought of lending me a hand,
…. all the ... all the … zzzzzz…..
Off to bed extra early folks, a huge thank you for all your support, with apologies I'm behind in some visits, and other visits too quick with faves and no comments, a stream of unanswered/unread Flickr mails waiting … I am so blinkin' tired..
no ed's..
Weeds in the wind, late afternoon, up the bank from the river bend, just down the road from town.
The light is from ther glare off a tin roof.
I could've sat there for longer the other day.
I like this large..

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
I see street photography as a privilege. The right to photograph anyone and anything in and from a public place for the purpose of art and documentary is not universal around the world. Rights can be taken away at any time, especially when abused.
I shoot courteously and always respect my subjects right to refuse to be photographed. I have always deleted shots when asked to do so.
On Thursday in Glasgow I was harassed by another street photographer. I don't have to justify why I turned my back to them as they tried to photograph me and I am not a hypocrite for doing so despite their protestations that I 'had a nerve'.
However, if someone indicates or tells you that they do not want to be photographed, if you continue to photograph them over and over again what you are doing can be classified as harassment, a criminal matter. Don't be a jerk and don't bully people.
I reacted out of a place of trauma and I am not proud of that but, as you all know, harassment formed a major part of causing my trauma in the first place. The point is that we, as street photographers, have a responsibility to treat people respectfully. This is deeply important if we want our 'rights' to continue in a world becoming increasingly wary of photographers and 'surveillance'.
This is why I take one shot and move on.
You don't follow people, chase them, take multiple shots or feel affronted if they refuse to be photographed.
Take care my Flickr friends. Take photos. Be kind to one another and I wish you a wonderful week in this crazy world.
Managed to sneak out with the pup for a few minutes last night and catch this shot just as the sun was trying to break throught the clouds. Was kind of playing around and didn't think I;d have much time so I set the camera to 7 exp. at +/- 1/3 stops and converted in Photmatix.
I'm kind of liken the way this one developed
Hope you all have a great weekend ahead of you
Hitting "L" and viewing large works better on this
Think this is the first time I’ve added bokeh circles to a shot ever but hey, this is for sliders Sunday so why not…
HSS!
Seen in the Slavery Museum which is part of the Maritime Museum, Albert Dock, Liverpool. The sculpture (2017) is made from various materials, including rum barrel hoops and the artist is Francois Piquet from Guadeloupe. I do not think that this sculpture needs much explaining. Fuji X100F.
I think its probably been over three years since I have photographed a Robin. Something I would look forward to every winter when they come down from the Mountains and can be found closer to home. They visit the farm every year so I was able to play with this lovely make Flame Robin (Petroica phoenicea) who was rather bold and posed for me nicely on this pole. I couldn't get near the females.
Our time ended on abit of a sad note when I found the resident Echidna that has featured in some of my photos hit by a car out the front. She was alive so I stood by her to stop other idiots speeding past and doing more damage while the Sherpa got a box and some gloves (very spiky animals).
None of the Vets were open so we got in contact with Wildlife Victoria. We eventually got connected with a lovely couple who were wildlife carers 20 minutes away and took the echidna there. She was hit on the nose which is their most sensitive part. I couldn't tell what other damage had been done. My main concern was that she was in pain and suffering. The couple were a retired nurse and medic so the echidna was in good hands and will get pain relief. The carers will take it to Healesville Sanctuary and if it can be saved, it will nursed back to health and released right back where we found her. I am hoping for a good outcome.
Valmadrera, Italy.
Who can tell where the journey of this rock began...
This is Lake Como, alias Lario. The town you see on the other shore is named Abbadia Lariana.
Shot this during the lunch break, to get to this spot takes just ten minutes of driving from my work place.
