Sunsets make excellent opportunities for photographing hairy caterpillars such as this Buff-tip moth caterpillar, as the golden light highlights their hairs and really makes them glow.
A job as a labourer on the Wulong Mine spoil tip is not a happy one in western eyes, but these workers are not only bemused at visitors but friendly beyond belief, apparently quite used to the many photographers that now appear from all corners of the globe to visit this most inhospitable of places. Fuxin city in Liaoning Province unfolds below as Fuxin Mining Railway 'SY' class 2-8-2 No.1195 waits for its spoil train to be dealt with in a 21st century manner, more traditional tools still being relied upon to add those final finishing touches to the mountain of waste material created over decades of deep and opencast mining. A traditional 'tuc-tuc' vehicle has found its way to the top of the tip to transport a labourer home, such vehicles being quite rare now in the Fuxin area, being replaced widespread by electric-powered vehicles, but still having the added luxury of coal-fired stoves for keeping passengers warm!. This scene, quite incredible for 2016, can surely not last for much longer in the ever-evolving China of the 21st century.

The chick fell off the adults back and tumbled into the water. It carried on trying to get the fish down its throat. In the end the adult ate it. The Arches, Carr Mill Dam, St.Helens, Merseyside.

Tip
Sometimes natural light is more than enough.
So always also shoot some images with the available light it might be that you don't need the strobes ;)
Only the last few flowers of this gladioli stem could be saved after wild winds last night flattened the late bloomers in my garden. Dame Edna would not be pleased.

Orange-tip [Anthocharis cardamines]
LEPIDOPTERA > Papilionoidea (Butterflies) >
Pieridae (Pierids) > Pierinae (Whites) > Anthocharini
This musical phenomenon comes to Theatr Clwyd for the first time thanks to Tip Top Productions.
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.
The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.
Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years

White-tipped Dove was another Texas specialty I wanted to find on my research trips there over the last couple months.
Late May to July. Widespread and frequent throughout Britain, although more local in Scotland. An unmistakable moth which closely resembles a twig from a Silver Birch when at rest.
When at rest, the wings are held almost vertically against the body with two buff areas at the front of the thorax and at the tips of the forewings which look very like the pale wood of the birch. The rest of the wings are the same mottled grey colour of the birch bark.
Occasionally the adults can be found resting in the day on a twig or the ground. They fly at night and comes to light, usually after midnight.
