In a ruined church in Split a prism high above casts a nice spectrum around the shadow of my hand. Or something like that.
It was foggy in town so took this long exposure and this is what came of it.... barely post processed. Adjusted highlights, shadows whites and blacks to make it crisper and that is about it.
Say no more!
The things you see on the shoreline of the Great Salt Lake, Utah, USA. This particular grouping of crystals and general weirdness was on the White Rock Bay beach on Antelope Island.

I love these things......
Cuttlefish are sometimes referred to as the chameleon of the sea due to their ability to change colour almost as often as me on a Sunday morning after a dodgy curry!
No, these aren't weird space mushrooms. Just an abstract-ish photo of frozen bubbles in a lake in Governor Dodge. I've always loved photos of frozen methane bubbles in Lake Abraham in Canada, so when I saw these little bubbles I really wanted to make a poor man's version. Wisconsin weather has been pretty up and down lately, and it's looking like it will be warm again next week. I wanted to put this photo out there while it's still cold! :)

Along with the slow movement of the boat the bird made the step. It was moving so slowly as if standing still in that weird pose.

This is the color version of an earlier Monochrome post. I really liked both, but didn;t want to put them up side by side.We awoke to this stark, appropriate for the desert light at the base of the Panamint Mountains in Death Valley National Park.
Sunset over Richmond Park - taken with RMC Tokina Mirror lens. Out of focus light sources appear as doughnuts!!! Weird!!
Came across these at around sunset this evening whilst walking the dog. I'd love to know what they are - any ideas?

My second attempt at Out Of Bounds.
I promise my "Frames" will be more natural in the next image.
Still, this is kind of fun :D
2024 was a rough year for us. However, I really can’t complain too much because some really good things happened, as well.
The best part of the year was adopting Torvi. She’s been such a radiant beam of sunshine in our lives and fits in perfectly with our weird little family. We love her so much!
While we weren’t able to have as many adventures as we would have liked with our camper van, just bringing it home was definitely a highlight of our year. Plus, we were still able to have some adventures with it, all of which were awesome.
On a similar note, all of the time Mike and I spent together (and with the kitties) is always a good thing, whether it’s hiking, biking, or just hanging out and playing a card game.
Another great highlight of the year was that I switched jobs! After 17 years in the same one, I was beyond burnt out and ready for a change. My new job is exactly what I was looking for and I’m extremely grateful for it.
The last good thing about this year was that after 7 months of terrible digestive issues, I finally received a diagnosis and am now recovering from a surgery to fix things. Having a chronic illness means dealing with a melodramatic body and despite taking care of myself, issues sometimes pop up as a complication of my illness. It’s a huge relief to be moving on from this!
Here’s to health and happiness for everyone in the coming year!
Boling lakes, smoking hills, mud pools, everything exists on Iceland.
This shot was taken close to Myvatn

The Goldfish Market on Tung Choi Street North, in the Mong Kok District, Hong Kong.
Located in the Kowloon side in the overcrowded district of Mong Kok, although quite frequented by tourists it is what used to be known as the heartland of the Hong Kong triad gangs.
Feng shui, also known as Chinese geomancy, is a traditional practice originating from ancient China, which claims to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment. Feng shui subscribers regard an aquarium of goldfish to be more than just a pretty face: it’s also an auspicious addition to one’s home that can bring good luck, so it’s no surprise that this popular pet trade is even more prominent in Hong Kong.
The Goldfish Market is lined on either side with several dozen shops and stalls devoted to the raising of many types of fish, from weirdly shaped goldfish to colourful tropical species with gaspingly high price tags.
Apart from the dozens of different types of brightly colored fish, you'll also find an Indiana Jones like collection of exotic pets; from snakes and spiders to lizards and turtles, as well as more mundane cats and dogs. Some of the rarer species – especially fish – can earn the sellers thousands of dollars.
Unlike across the border in China where markets like this are notorious for selling rare and unusual animals for food (and these are dying out), the Goldfish Market is only for pet purposes.
