When the sun decided to shine,albeit a short time,it didn't take long for these little beauties to appear. A gorgeous male Orange Tip.

The female Orange Tip is more secretive and less conspicuous than the male. She lacks the orange wing tips, which warn of his unpalatability, and is often passed over as a Small or Green-veined White. From above, the female can be distinguished from the other whites by the isolated black spot near the front edge of the forewings and the faint pattern showing through from the underside of the hindwings.
Back Garden - not the most obliging with its positioning (it was fine when it landed, but moved position before I had locked focus)
Another capture of male yellow tip. This one shows better the yellow (orange) tips of the wings. Females don't have the yellow color on their wing tips.
More than 50% crop of the original.

Pioggia
La pioggia è la forma più comune di precipitazione atmosferica e si forma quando gocce separate di acqua cadono al suolo da delle nuvole. Il suo codice METAR è RA. Una parte della pioggia che cade dalle nuvole non riesce a raggiungere la superficie ed evapora nell'aria mentre cade, specialmente se attraversa aria secca (questo tipo di precipitazione è detta virga).
La pioggia gioca un ruolo importantissimo nel ciclo dell'acqua, nel quale il liquido che evapora dagli oceani si condensa nelle nuvole e cade di nuovo a terra, poi ritorna negli oceani con le correnti e i fiumi per ripetere di nuovo il ciclo. In tal modo si rende disponibile alla biosfera.
L'ammontare della pioggia caduta si misura in millimetri attraverso i pluviometri o pluviografi. In meteorologia solitamente 10 mm di pioggia equivalgono a 10 litri d'acqua caduti in un'ora su una superficie di 1 mq.
L'odore caratteristico che accompagna talvolta la pioggia è quello dell'ozono (simile a quello di uova guaste). Infatti, quando l'ossigeno atmosferico viene percorso da scariche elettriche (in questo caso i fulmini), perde l'originale struttura biatomica per assumere quella triatomica, l'ozono appunto. L'odore che segue una pioggia dopo un periodo di siccità viene detto "petricor".
I recently recorded a video with B&H with some helpful tips for shooting with a long telephoto lens. Check it out in the link below:
actionphototours.com/5-tips-for-shooting-telephoto-lenses/
I cover topics such as selecting the right lens, handholding techniques, how to shoot from a tripod in both calm and windy conditions, and much more!
ICM Seascape. I thought I would try a ICM image of the sea. I find these types of shot;s difficult to evaluate, as there are no guide lines. Like DOF sharpness composition.
But there you go love them or hate them here it is, I personally like them in small dosses.

Fun fact: Male orange tips (like this one) live on the edges of woodland, while females live in meadows.
Back Garden - couldn't believe my luck when he landed on this dead daffodil (I didn't spot the photobomber at the time)
Also had a Holly Blue land on some blossom, but too high for photos.
Back Garden - after photographing this guy on Saturday, I watched him go to roost on the Weigela. Knowing it was going to be frosty the next morning I got up early to try to get some images with frost or dew - he was still there, but he must have been sheltered under the leaf, as I can only see the frost on the Weigela.
Piran is probably the most beautiful of Slovenia's coastal towns, perched on a tiny piece of land jutting into the sea. It feels more like an Italian coastal town, without all the Italian tourists, and for good reason: Piran was part of the Venetian empire from the late 13th century to the end of the 18th century.
Piran is an extremely picturesque small Italianate city on the Adriatic coast of Slovenia. It is one of Slovenia's four coastal cities, including Izola, Koper, and Portoroz. It's Italian styling is due to its proximity to the Italian border and once belonged to Italy. The boat harbor is full of small colorful fishing boats. The main square is near the sea and full of activity. The streets are typical narrow winding medieval streets that are a joy to explore and find hidden squares inside the various neighborhoods. The Church on the hill is complete with a separate bell tower and baptistry. There is a walkway connecting the churchyard to a beach along the shore. The small peninsula of the city hosts a beautiful pedestrian street of various restaurants with delicious seafood and a gorgeous view of the sunset over the adjacent peninsula (in Croatia). The lighthouse at the tip of the peninsula is unique.
Piran offers great views of the small Slovene coastline, including views of nearby Trieste, large shipping vessels, and rolling hills. Hidden treasures include an old aquarium, steep winding streets, and local people fishing from the shore.

Also with sundial, somewhat smaller than on the Hoheward spoil tip...
2 more photos of orange tip butterflies seen yesterday.
The only flowers that any settled on yesterday.
Dawn over the defunct pit at Fuxin. The SY loco was tipping spoil from the Wulong deep mine, but they didn't make much of an impression on filling the big hole, especially as the Wulong coal mine has since closed - and the steamers have gone too.

Vandaag kreeg ik een tip dat een zeer interessante set Poolse zelflossers onderweg was richting Coevorden. Het was droog en er leek niet veel regen aan te komen, maar al snel groeide dat beetje uit tot de zoveelste plensbui die maar rond bleef tollen. Inmiddels doorweekt toch maar gewacht en zo passeert een in Nederland (wellicht buiten de Betuweroute) niet veel voorkomende Railpool Vectron met de trein bij Wezep richting 't Harde, vlak nadat op de achtergrond een boom van pure vochtige ellende gewoon spontaan was omgevallen. Na het kopmaken ging de trein op weg terug, maar die foto mislukte omdat ik zo nat en verkleumd was dat het me niet lukte met de plu in één hand een foto te maken die scherp genoeg was, ook al had ik daar iets beter licht.
