Macro Mondays: Pick Two

I´m sorry about the poor quality (I cropped it extremely) but I really like this photo... so I want to show you :)

Oh c%@p! It's Macro Monday and none of my other "just white paper" photos have worked out. Where will I find some inspiration?

 

I did try a lot of experiments with gridded flash and burning paper but (butt?) none of them were to my liking.

Two trees.

 

Our PROBUS Club Happy Snappers recently undertook a trip into The Rocks for an excursion with the intention being that we were to primarily photograph the architecture.

 

Once again I became distracted and lost focus when I spotted these two trees across the street from where I was standing and immediately the challenge changed from architecture to botany.

 

With just the right amount of sunlight filtering through the urban landscape it provided the ideal setting for this image as the trees also acted as an additional filter to the prevent the sunlight reaching the sandstone background.

From a walk in the area at Stubbergaard Lake and monestary near Vinderuo, Denmark - April 30, 2021.

This is from a walk on the "bog path" - a 1.7 km boardwalk through the swampy area at the northern end of the lake.

Bempton Cliffs

 

I couldn’t believe my luck when one puffin landed on the cliff right in front of me, so imagine my shock when the second one arrived. Two or three of the shots were a bit fuzzy as it’s quite windy up there, the cliffs are 330 feet high so so tend to catch the sea breeze. This one was the best of the bunch. The gannet in the background seemed oblivious to their presence.

 

Figures seem to differ on how many breeding pairs of puffins return to Bempton Cliffs each April/May. Each pair lays a single egg in a crevice in the rock face. They normally leave around July. You’d think being as there are so many of them they’d be really simple to spot, not so, they easily get lost among the other larger birds, of which there are many thousands. Bempton is home to 200,000 breeding seabirds. When the puffins land they very quickly vanish into the burrows in the cliff face, so if you’re not quick, they’re gone.

 

Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
