There were a couple of people with cameras trained on something in the Painted Dog enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park. We went over to see but the animals were nowhere to be seen. Then one of the photographers pointed out a Little Owl, perched in a dead tree and another on a nearby tree - quite a bonus, especially as I've never seen one in the wild before. These were wild birds, just visiting the wildlife park.
A shot of the other owl in the comment below - both shots are well cropped.

Last Saturday we joined a rocket launch event at a big Californian ranch called Snow Ranch, located in the Central Valley east of Stockton. The launch site is at a remote location - you drive for two miles on a dirt road once you enter the ranch. On the way back we stopped at the farm house to talk to the owners and to buy beef from grass fed cows. We fed the chickens and cat.
I processed a balanced HDR photo from a RAW exposure, and carefully adjusted the curves and color balance. I welcome and appreciate your critical feedback.

Our first stop on our Alaska trip was Brooks Falls in Katmai National Forest. Delivered there by Katmai Air Service on a small plane to King Salmon and then a float plane to Brooks Falls, where there are viewing platforms to watch the coastal brown bears fishing for the gazillion salmon in the Brooks River!

The old parish church of Dyce, Aberdeenshire, dedicated to St Fergus, is a pre-Reformation building dating from the 13th or 14th century. The original burial ground has many ancient graves and monuments as well as views over the River Don and the surrounding countryside. The ruined church also houses Pictish symbol stones, bringing us closer to our past.

Not only did we have beautiful weather on our wildlife and glacier cruise tour out of Seward (Major Marine Tours), but the whales really turned out for us. After seeing humpback whales, we then moved on to an area farther away, and there were many orcas plying the waters around our boat. One even came straight at us and then dove under the boat. It was so close that all my telephoto lens could do was produce some very blurry shots of a large bulk underwater! But I was able to capture images of what looks like an adult orca and a young one swimming together.
Visiting some friends upstate, I just had to get a shot of this apartment complex. Really liked all the lines and textures The light kind of sucked that day for the building so I opted for a high contrast effect in post processing.

I love nature and all it has to offer. Today I took a trip over to Taughannock Falls State Park and admired the lovely Falls. The water isn't flowing well since we haven't had much rain this summer, but the view is still spectacular!

Thanks again to my friend Deanie for letting my family stay at her place on Waiheke! It was a great little vacation after Tina's doctor visit in Auckland. Waiheke is less than an hour away by ferry and it's like a perfect little island getaway! There are so many cool beaches and awesome places to visit. If you have an extra few days on your next trip to New Zealand, be sure to come over thisaway!
