It hasn't escaped my notice that the squirrels' favourite feeders are the so-called squirrel-proof ones. They seem to get great pleasure from swinging upside down from branches to access baffled and weight dependent feeders. Very occasionally, a risky upside down manoeuvre results in a fall but mostly they acquire these feeder accessing skills from a very early age and of course I love watching them.
Our society seems to be collapsing under the weight of the technology we’ve created. Misinformation and hate spreading like an unstoppable virus…..

It's another changeable day today, we're hoping to do some butterfly transects this afternoon but we need a bit of sun . We'll see. I had a lovely meal last night with June, and had some orchids potted by her, so my collection is growing. Weights and measures is by Dry The River.
n a quiet street in santa catalina, the man stands across from the izakayita, lost in his phone. his reflection drifts in the restaurant’s glass, where a geisha waits silently inside. she watches, her figure half-hidden, her gaze lingering on a world that moves too fast to notice her. the street hums with life, but in this fleeting moment, the modern and the timeless meet—separated by a pane of glass, joined by the quiet weight of reflection.
Macro Mondays 'back in the day' theme.
Small brass weights from vintage scales which I hope fit the theme - anyway they do for me as I've used digital scales for many years.
Total width measurement of all the weights is 4.5 cm
I got these quick locks for my weight lifting bars; this will allow me to quickly mix up weights in my exercises and build muscle faster.
Meersburg, Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland.
Meersburg es una localidad de Alemania, situada a orillas del lago Constanza, en el estado federado de Baden-Wurtemberg. Es una ciudad de un peso turístico considerable, siendo de los puntos más visitados de este gran lago.
Tiene un marcado carácter medieval, como muchas de las ciudades de esa zona, y es una bella y turística ciudad privilegiadamente elevada sobre el lago. Esto hace que su vista de todo éste, con la orilla Suiza al frente, los Alpes detrás de ésta, y la ciudad de Constanza (Konstanz, en alemán) en el lado más cercano, merezca por si sola una visita.
Cualquier visitante descubrirá enseguida que otro de los protagonistas económicos de la ciudad es la producción de vino, ya que sus viñas llenan ordenada y respetuosamente las laderas y sus bodegas, tabernas y almacenes de vino nos lo recuerdan constantemente por medio de palabras alemanas relacionadas con ello: Wein (vino), Keller (bodega), Winzer (viticultor), etc.
Meersburg is a town in Germany, located on the shores of Lake Constance, in the federal state of Baden-Württemberg, it is a city of considerable tourist weight, being one of the most visited points of this great lake.
It has a marked medieval character, like many of the cities in that area, and it is a beautiful and tourist city privilegedly elevated above the lake. This makes your view of it all, with the Swiss shore in front, the Alps behind it, and the city of Constance (Konstanz, in German) on the closer side, worth a visit on its own.
Any visitor will soon discover that another of the economic protagonists of the city is wine production, since its vineyards fill the slopes in an orderly and respectful way and its wineries, taverns and wine warehouses constantly remind us of this through German words related to It: Wein (wine), Keller (cellar), Winzer (viticulturist), etc.
Since I still have a significant backlog of images from Iceland, sometimes - instead of going through them one after another - I look through them randomly to see if any stand out, and this time it was one from the beautiful Hraunafossar which we visited at the end of our trip.
After we enjoyed a quick dip in the hot water of the Búðardalur hot pot, which was on our way from the Westfjords to Reykjavik, we continued our drive through the amazing landscape and decided to make a short detour to the Hraunafossar. From the parking lot, it was only a short walk to the viewing platforms where you can see turquoise water coming out of the porous black lava which is covered with beautiful greenery. Every time I arrive at epic locations, I kind of feel overwhelmed and need a little time to find some compositions that work, but in this case I have to give credit to my girlfriend for spotting the composition you see here, which I shamelessly stole from her (after politely asking of course).
Taking this image wasn't easy as we were standing on a wooden floor that was shaking when people were walking over it (we could have moved a little to the side, but then the angle was not ideal and trees in the foreground blocked the view a bit) and since it’s not too far away from Reykjavik, I guess you can image how many people visit this location. I also had to zoom in to 200mm to isolate the waterfall and using filters to get a longer exposure together with the occasional wind gusts made this composition not easy to get.
After getting at least one sharp image, I noticed that my girlfriend was struggling with sharpness and soon we identified the problem: Her tele lens does not have a tripod collar and she didn’t have an L-bracket at that time. This means that - in order to take a long exposure in portrait orientation - she had to tilt the ball head of her tripod to the side, where the weight of the camera and lens caused the camera to move down introducing some blur in her images. At first we thought that the reason might be her cheaper tripod, but then I gave her my tripod with which she got the same blurry images. This meant that the only reason could be the small tripod plate on the bottom of her camera, and it only took a quick look to see that it was noticeably shifted. Fortunately, I had another spare tripod plate with me and using this together with my tripod made it possible that she also got the result she wanted. After spending way to much time at this location, we continued upstream to see the Barnafoss as well. Finally, we got a coffee at the restaurant next to the parking lot before we continued to the Reykjavik campsite with a slightly sad feeling that our trip goes to an end. I hope you like it!
PS: Thanks again to my girlfriend for having such an amazing eye for compositions and for letting me steal this one. If you have some time, I think she would really appreciate it if you would also check out her images: www.flickr.com/photos/193130995@N02/
I think as photographers we tend to be connoisseurs of light. Someone else might look out and see a cloudy day. But a photographer is bound to appreciate much more nuance in those clouds. Is it just a thin layer, producing 'cloudy bright' conditions on the ground? Or a thicker layer that allows light, but produces no distinct shadows. My mind frequently evaluates cloud and light conditions, even when I'm not actively engaged in shooting; often when I don't even have a camera with me. The process simply cannot be switched off. The cloud cover and resulting ambient light has a tremendous effect on the look and mood of photos, and if there's one thing I'm learning it's how to leverage this to shape visual stories; to tell them the way I want them told. One condition I love to work in is high density clouds. The ones that darken the sky to the point where there are no shadows at all. A leaden sky that sucks the life out of color and contrast out of photos and causes an oppressive feeling, both visually and even mentally. We've all sensed how differently we feel on a bright day compared to a dark one. Even if you're at work indoors, your spirit is likely to soar a bit more on a bright day. It's just human nature. There's still plenty of energy on a cloudy day, the trick is learning how to tap into it. The heaviness of the day was upon me as I wandered about the local cemetery and eventually gravitated toward this magnificent Gothic receiving vault. The masonry played perfectly into the visual concept of weight and obscurity. There was just enough clarity in the foreground to create a layered effect, as acuity drops off with distance in the fog. Half or more of the thrill for me in a situation like this is simply experiencing it. That coupled with the sort of intimacy I feel as I am invariably the only one present to witness these things. This exclusivity heightens awareness and my senses. I can't help but think that would be diluted in the presence of others.

The red-flanked bluetail also known as the orange-flanked bush-robin is a migratory insectivorous species. breeding in mixed coniferous forest with undergrowth in northern Asia and northeastern Europe, from Finland east across Siberia to south to Japan. It winters mainly in southeastern Asia, in the Indian Subcontinent, the Himalayas, Taiwan, and northern Indochina. The breeding range is slowly expanding westwards through Finland (where up to 500 pairs now breed), and it is a rare but increasing vagrant to western Europe, mainly to Great Britain. It is similar in size and weight to the common redstart and slightly smaller (particularly with a slimmer build) than the European robin. Both sexes have a blue tail and rump, and orange-red flanks; they also have a white throat and greyish-white underparts, and a small, thin black bill and slender black legs.
