This bird shook its head half a dozen times as I watched, over a 20 minute period. Most of those shakes included an extended tongue, sometimes flopping about. Photo was taken in bright sunshine; hence the dark background.
For an empty abandoned old house, this one is remarkable. Not only is it architecturally cool, it is also not over-run by trees allowing one a clear view of it's grand exterior.
This building is considered to be one of the most interesting examples of Brutalist architecture in the former Yugoslavia.
Это здание считается одним из самых интересных примеров архитектуры в стиле брутализма в бывшей Югославии.

This is probably the most common hawk in North America. If you’ve got sharp eyes, you’ll see several individuals on almost any long car ride, anywhere. Red-tailed Hawks soar above open fields, slowly turning circles on their broad, rounded wings. Other times you’ll see them atop telephone poles, eyes fixed on the ground to catch the movements of a vole or a rabbit.

This Adult bird was photographed enjoying the Winter sunshine on the grassland at RSPB Frampton Marsh {Lincolnshire, U.K.}.
This shot has been seen on Flickr before, but has been completely reprocessed this time to give a slightly more stylised appearance
A First Great Western HST set is bathed in the golden light of dawn as it passes the site of the former wartime Moreton Sidings on the approaches to Didcot with a westbound express
This location and image made me think silence and peace. In recent travel to Japan, I was struck by silence and peace, even where people gathered on buses and trains.
This is the 2nd Rufous Hummingbird that I have seen at my home this year. The other bird was a male the day before I saw this female. Saw another female this morning (5/3) and the same White-throated Sparrow that I saw yesterday. IMG_5555
This is the Australia level in Dinorwic quarry.This August will be 50 years since Dinorwic slate quarry close.
this is an old picture that i did about 2 or 3 months ago. i really like it though so i thought i would upload it, but i like to think my editing had improved a bit since then, there's definitely a huge difference in my shading technique XD
i'm really angry/annoyed because my laptop that i do editing on has completely stopped working and it's also the one that has allllllllllll my pictures on and alllllll my sims (and i never uploaded my sims anywhere or gave them to anyone so they're all on that laptop :() so right now i'm hoping my dad can stop being lazy and fix my laptop hopefully tomorrow or the next day but until it's fixed (if it can even be fixed :/) then i can't work on any of my contest pics or anything :(
This is a view of Uig bay from the view point at Aussichtspunkt Isle of Lewis. It was blowing a hoolie so hand held only no tripod for this panorama.
No matter the season I always feel as if this ancient oak is opening its arms to me as I walk past it.
This is the "Devil's Throat" at the Iguazu falls. It's is the most massive and impressive of all the falls. The brownish colour of the water is due to heavy rainfall fallen over the area on the day previous to my visit - it turns the water muddier. On the first comment I've put a shot I took on exactly the same spot on a different visit, the colour of the water was completely different.

Esta es la "Garganta del Diablo" en las cataratas de Iguazú. Es la más espectacular de todos los saltos de agua en la región. El color marrón del agua se debe a las fuertes lluvias caídas en la región un día antes, que hacen que el río lleve más barro. En el primer comentario he puesto una foto de exactamente el mismo lugar hecho en otra visita a las cataratas, cuando el color era bien diferente.

This is one of my favorite shots of my friend Tara.......she is on a cross country music tour in her car as we speak....cool chick....
This is a shot I captured while on a short day-trip to Prison Island in Tanzania. Looking out of a cliff from the edge of Prison Island, I spotted this rock jutting out in the middle of the Indian Ocean, being battered by the sea. Each time the sea waves struck, spray would be generated, carried hither and thither by the strong breezes. I tried to freeze the motion so as to depict the power in nature, battering away at that rock, wearing it away gradually through the centuries. Who knows if a monolith stood there thousands of years ago, now worn down to barely a nub.
This Island was part of the Port Arthur Penal Settlement in Tasmania and was known as the Isle of the Dead because it was where the dead convicts and soldiers were buried. The prisoners were buried on the lower levels and the guards, soldiers and administrators on the higher levels.
Went back to Erieau this weekend and found much better skies. Although most of the ice had melted from the inlet there was still a few crystals near the edge as seen in the bottom right. The clouds kept rolling in and out giving this cool reflection. The tall orange glow on the horizon is from some burn off or tower on the other side of the lake near Cleveland. It really stood out tonight. Further out on the lake you can see the ice is still floating on top. Loving this K 10D.......5 min @f 5.6 100 iso...
This young lady sat alone outside the DOM Cathedral in Cologne, Germany on a warm summer night with fashion shoes I thought might have weighed as much as she. Her sidelong look captured my eye.
This inky cap is edible, but only if you don't consume any alcohol for 24 hours before and after eating them. Also called the alcohol inky and tippler's bane, frightening symptoms of nausea and malaise arise within minutes after ingesting these unique mushrooms if you've been drinking or soon will be. Otherwise they're quite tasty!

This year I was really lucky with the flowers, as the few weeks of grey weather we'd had before my holiday had delayed the thrift and other clifftop plants enough that they were still in abundance along the coast.
This shot was taken from Doyden Point, just outside the National Trust village of Port Quin, looking up the coast towards Port Isaac. Whilst I waited for a sunset which never really materialised, I did some shooting at 90 degrees to the sun, allowing the late evening sun to light up the opposite headland.

This was the best I can do to rescue this shot. Weather was really horrible and my bracketed shots lacked detail in the shadows.
Good thing this was not one of those places that tripods are not allowed. This picture could have been worse if it was done hand held
The Apocalypse.
Built this for a contest on MOCpages. It is very loosely based off the Imagine Dragons song-Radioactive.
A big thanks to Gareth and Graham for offering critiques!

This was last night's project. I've been wanting to try this for months. I just never feel like hanging out in the desert for a couple of hours babysitting my camera. It's funny how every little noise you hear seems so much louder and so much creepier when you're alone way out in the desert in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night.
The other problem I have had. I don't understand this, but the skies have been hazy and crappy for several months. The last really good, starry sky I have seen was in Moab, in September. I don't know where all the stars have gone. I can understand that here in the valley, it is smoggy and there is a lot of light pollution. But. Even in October and November, I was in places like Page, and the Grand Canyon, and there were practically no stars out. Arizona usually has some of the best skies in the world, but every night I look up and say, 'where are all the stars?' I hate how washed out the sky looks on the left half of this, but it's the best I could do with a shitty sky.
So... Anyway... This is about 20, 5 minute exposures merged in Photoshop. It's a total of about a two hour exposure. The moon was perfect last night for shooting this. Just a tiny sliver of a moon. Just enough to throw a little bit of light on my foreground and the mountains. I shot it right before the moon set, so most of the exposures were shot in total darkness with no moon. I also lightpainted one of the exposures a tiny bit just to give a little bit more sparkle to the cactus in the foreground.
