For Macro Mondays - Bubbles.
Titled 'This One' as it was the bubble shot I preferred for this weeks theme.
Happy Macro Monday!!
Found this on the beach in Ilfracombe, North Devon. The tide had just gone out and after a bit of beach combing I came across this little jem, Fabulous colours, shapes and textures!!
We are in the old mining town of Derby today, and this abandoned old house is a metaphor for what has happened to the place. But Derby lives on in another form and is thriving in its own way. We'll see that over the next few days. But the old Derby is gone, as has the family that once occupied this house.
One can only speculate on the life that once turned this house into a home. But there is a song that captures something of the spirit in this photograph. It was sung by Dinah Washington (1924-1963) in the 1950s and has been newly arranged with her vocals by Max Richter on his incredible album, "On the Nature of Daylight".
"This bitter earth
Well, what fruit it bears
What good is love
mmmm that no one shares
And if my life is like the dust
oooh that hides the glow of a rose
What good am I
Heaven only knows
Lord, this bitter earth
Yes, can be so cold
Today you're young
Too soon, you're old
But while a voice within me cries
I'm sure someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
Ooooo may not
Oh be so bitter after all"

What's to be said? C'est la vie. And perhaps to shed a tear.

This is un-cropped, shot from only 15-feet away. If you love feather details, hit the expand arrows then F11 to see full-screen.
This is the first time I have seen a seagull stalking and chasing down dragonflies. It caught several small ones and a couple of large ones. It was quite a distance and quite a severe crop

This is an unpublished image of a serval that I spotted on my 2019 trip to the Masai Mara region of Kenya.
They are hard to find as they aren't super common. I've been fortunate enough to have seen a couple on two trips to the region(although none last time).

This is Deadvlei in The Namib desert. The trees are petrified on the salt pans in the middle of the desert. It is an amazing sight. The people give it scale but I would love to have been alone there too.

A signpost on my way to Hollingworth Lake Littleborough; The path returns briefly to Piethorne Reservoir and then out of the valley!
Eigentlich wollte ich dieses Bild als Schlusspunkt unter die Serie setzen, aber da nun schon ein paar Aufnahmen von "the Eye" hier gezeigt worden sind, soll euch diese nicht vorenthalten bleiben.

Don't wake me, I'm still dreaming, I don't feel you, I can't feel you.. I'm alone for real in my mind, I don't wanna see the light of day, why do you hurt me? This reality.....
This rowing boat has obviously been here for some time, it is stuck in the sand and covered in green mossy seaweed
Lily was missing, presumed dead for 6 months. A vet from roughly 40 miles away called one day to tell my son that she had been found - so he went to fetch her. She was fit, and well, well fed with a lovely sleek coat. So many question marks? We wondered if Thea had been a little too rough with her, and she decided to leave, or if she was too curious and found herself inside a travelling van.....
The flowering quince made it through sleet & snow flurries, high winds and below freezing temps. One of the joys of Winter. And - our Yellow-throated warbler is still here - this is Day 26!
A walk in the park along a little stream. Colorful leaves all over, a little bridge on the background, a very peaceful scene. This is Autumn.
This is probably the most difficult photo manipulation I've ever done.. I was about to give up but I'm happy with how it turned out!
Here's a before and after!
This is a Scottish lifer for me - I have actually seen the species before - in India - where they look totally different with chestnut bellies.
- Nickie's Nature Trail ... near Keefer Lake, Ontario, Canada -
I noticed the the EXIF information has gone missing for our photos ... our pictures no longer have lens, shutter speed, aperture etc. information - just shows the camera used. Anyone know what's up with that? I hope they haven't decided to drop it ... we photographers want to know these things about photos we look at ... sometimes. :)
And now the EXIF data is back ... that's good.
