This snipe is hunting for food by poking his beak into the mud. It just finished poking on the right side of that clump of stuff right under its beak and now it is taking a step to poke on the other side. The snipes need those rather long beaks because they are often poking deep up to their face.

This coast cannon from the British company Vickers-Armstrong, model 38.1/45 cm belongs to the Castillitos coastal artillery battery, in Cartagena. The project for this battery dates back to 1926 but it was built between 1933 and 1936. These artillery pieces could fire projectiles weighing almost one ton at 35 kilometers away. As I said, it is better that they have been declared a heritage of industrial archeology and are dedicated to recreational entertainment than to destroy. The views from here of the Cartagena coast are unbeatable with all the shades of blue 250 meters below our feet on the edge of impressive cliffs.
It's been about 2 months since this little girl popped into our lives. She came when I was submerged deep in grief and although it's still a daily struggle, it's been getting better. I'm noticing that I'm laughing again, which both surprises me and fills me with joy...

Woke up this morning to a nice winter wonderland. My love-hate tree was definitely in the love mode. Now that the pesky leaves are down and raked, I'm beginning to see its good side.

I bet the geese were asking each other "so this is spring?"

This series of shots were from an early morning trip to New Brighton last weekend, when the weather was very chilly, but also very calm.
I love the light at this time of the morning!
I blended 3 different exposures in Photoshop using layer masks.
Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.

This Itoh peony gets its name ‘First Arrival’ as it is one of the first hybrid peonies to bloom in the year. This is a semi-double flower variety of peony that has crinkly lavender-pink flowers.
The exquisite blossoms gradually become redder closer to the center of the flower. The center of the Itoh peony flower looks like a magenta and yellow-colored spiky ball. These large flowers can be as many as 40 on each plant with each one measuring around 8” (20 cm) across.

Since I need some winter images for a proper photo calendar i looked for something worth capturing during those days when we had at least a little bit of snow.
Actually the amount of snow we had wasn’t even enough to cover the grass on this hill, so I cloned out hundreds of grass blades, which was great fun.
Not.
If you are into counting, you are welcome to check my assertion based on the original image:

This Polar Bear reminds me of a dog that has been told to sit, with its hind legs splayed and its front legs together, and keeping eye contact as if awaiting the next command. Except this Polar Bear was sitting nicely because he wanted to. He knew who was the boss, and he was taking orders from nobody. I took this from a Zodiac (inflatable boat) while the bear was sitting on a stony beach on the east coast of Spitsbergen in the Svalbard archipelago. We rounded a blind corner and the bear was there, right in front of us, so this is straight off the camera.
This male Dark-eyed Junco of the Oregon form paused among Western Cedar foliage with a trove of food to nourish its young, which were in a nest on the ground (hidden to me). I observed repeated feeding trips from a boardwalk on the Forbidden Plateau. That high elevation area is in Strathcona Provincial Park on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
This is an altered reality of Bridge Rising 1. Once more I used Photofox Surreal Skies component to create the image. The original was taken with my iPhone11. The bridge HAS been raised under unusual circumstances lately.
This is a medium-large black bird, 68 to 78 cm (27 to 31 in) long and with a 95-to-110-centimetre (37 to 43 in) wingspan. It has a longish tail and yellow throat-patch. Adults have a small crest in the breeding season.
It is distinguished from the great cormorant by its smaller size, lighter build, thinner bill, and, in breeding adults, by the crest and metallic green-tinged sheen on the feathers. Among those differences are that a shag has a lighter, narrower beak; and the juvenile shag has darker underparts. The European shag's tail has 12 feathers, the great cormorant's 14 feathers. The green sheen on the feathers results in the alternative name green cormorant sometimes being given to the European shag.
This image was taken on the Inner Farne Island, off the coast of Northumberland in the north east of England
EVERY year, when we can't think of gifts for family members, I say I will just buy everybody a gator head! Maybe THIS will be the year . . . LOL!

Couldn't have been a more epic moment than this really. Walking through this space in time is a privilege. That morning I was out shooting astro-photography in the bone chilling cold (as it typically is above 14,000 feet) and I made friends with the dog you see in this picture. Her name was Sadie I think, and she followed us half way to the next village. I think she was happy to have someone to play with, and it was clear this Himalayan mountain dog knew her way around. The people here are very poor, and recently heavily impacted by the earthquake. I can imagine this dog's life is hard, living off the scraps of people who are relying on international aid, and living mostly off tourism and the land. Nevertheless, I can't say they have it bad, look at this place! This is their back yard, a beautiful stream leading down to a bigger river, fed by snow and glacier water. Water that feeds the crops down below for millions of farmers. My girlfriend Heather on the left and our guide accompanied me and I'm so grateful to both of them. Truly an experience of a lifetime.
