Some books and websites call this species Lesser Redpoll (Acanthis cabaret) but there is no genetic difference between these and Common Redpolls (A. flammae). And from 1 January 2018 BOU officially dropped this species to become a subspecies of Common Redpoll when they adopted the IOC species guidelines (see here www.birdguides.com/news/bou-to-adopt-ioc-world-bird-list/ ). So this is now Common Redpoll (Acanthis flammae subsp cabaret). But oddly Lesser Redpoll is still on the BOU Official List nearly three years later www.bou.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/British-List-20... . Lesser Redpoll's status as a species was only short-lived as BOU only accepted it as a species in 2001 on the basis of a small population in Norway in 1994 that held 6 pairs of cabaret and 5 pairs of flammae, with no evidence of mixed pairs.

 

The name Redpoll refers to the red on the head, as poll originally meant head. The red on the forehead is just visible here, as is the distinctive black moustache. The meaning of poll as a vote came about, as a poll was originally a head count. It now rarely survives in its original meaning although the bit between the ears on a horse or cow is called a poll, and a poll axe wasn't used for chopping trees.

 

I photographed this Redpoll recently in the Crowden Valley in the Peak District. I was photographing Ring Ouzels and the Lammergeier had just flown over, then this little Redpoll landed in a nearby tree giving me a photo-opportunity. I say "little" because they are tiny. For comparison a House Sparrow weighs 34g whereas this chap weighs just 11g.

- Sun had set and said farewell with this spectacular lightshow through the fog at Huk, Oslo Fjord, Norway.

The 5 last images are from the same location and shows how the variety of light, weather and impression changes continously.

 

This was the place I shot my first landscape image about 10 years ago, using quite funny equipment which seemed just as quite logic at the time, and recently I`ve had the urge to return here and finally decided to capture all four seasons of this place after seeing it`s potential.

 

I framed the shot to get everything from deep layers of underwater ice, highlights in the snow, golden reflection in the water and dramatic sky to compliment the colors.

After third try, fine adjusting the polarizer effect and handholding a neutral density filter moving it slightly up-and-down during the exposure, I got my best exposure of light and details.

Quite a challenge as the light was very strong and shadows deep.

Wintertime is often easier as snow and ice reflects more light and makes the exposure easier for a satisfying result.

 

The meditation and emptiness of relying on getting the shot in-camera at the time of exposure is essential for me and brings me great joy when it comes down to photography.

I think of it as zen.

Observing how the mind automatically utilizes everything from abstract concepts to the most detailed technical and artistic aspects of photography is very interesting. Just to keep the focus above the emotions at spectacular moments like this teaches me a lot about the mind and gives me energy and peace. Mindfood.

Zen.

 

During the last year I`ve achieved to master some shooting techniques that requires minimum of post-processing on the pc.

Working on subtle enhancement to the RAW and TIFF-files, using curves, local dodge/burn and color correction, rather than letting an image rely on time consuming post-processing that does more bad than good to the images.

In my experience, minimum but adequate processing, is crucial to get the best image quality when printing large prints and also let`s me spend more time in nature photographing.

 

On flickrs eye-hurting white background and with my 25% downsize of image file for compressed jpg-upload, this image is not justified. Please take a look at my website for larger images on more pleasing dark background.

I went to the beach determined not to get wet. I wore somewhat waterproof shoes, but was adamant about keeping them dry. I had scouted out a spot to shoot for sunset earlier, but literally about 10 minutes before the sunset, I chickened out and decided that the composition I had settled on was no good. Like a chicken with its head cutoff, I started running up and down the beach frantically trying to find a spot to set up. I found this nice shiny rock that was reflecting the colors of the sky quite nicely, so I decided to try and work it into the composition. Unfortunately, this rock was surrounded by water, and any images of it from the dry sand were pretty crappy. I wasn't going home empty handed, so I rolled up the jeans and trudged through the ocean to set up on top of this rock. As cold as the water was, I'd say it was worth the sandy shoes. :)

Now that Dan "the Man" Rubin has finally gotten around to customizing his Virb profile, I've got another one to highlight. It's got a similar color scheme to his website, but with a darker and more personal feel.

Just place the studio lights somewhere and walk around them to see what light does to the subject and the environment.

 

And especially look back at the photos to see what certain choices and positions do in relation to the light. Both the model and the photographer have an influence on this.

This shows that a good photo is not made because that one photographer is so good yes or no or that the model has a lot or less experience.

You take a successful photo together.

Swans are birds of the family Anatidae within the genus Cygnus. The swans' closest relatives include the geese and ducks. Swans are grouped with the closely related geese in the subfamily Anserinae where they form the tribe Cygnini. Sometimes, they are considered a distinct subfamily, Cygninae. There are six or seven living (and one extinct) species of swan in the genus Cygnus; in addition, there is another species known as the coscoroba swan, although this species is no longer considered one of the true swans. Swans usually mate for life, although 'divorce' sometimes occurs, particularly following nesting failure, and if a mate dies, the remaining swan will take up with another. The Northern Hemisphere species of swan have pure white plumage but the Southern Hemisphere species are mixed black and white. The Australian black swan (Cygnus atratus) is completely black except for the white flight feathers on its wings; the chicks of black swans are light grey. R_14590
