of one's whole life may depend upon the

(Days in a haunted house, with echoes of my hauted childhood).

 

P.S. Still busy days, still busy life...but still breathing, still dreaming, still healing & still living.

Took the Panasonic G6 and 14-140 lens out for a walk. This is a test of the OIS at the long end. A bit of blur, but not bad for 1/8 second at 280mm equivalent!

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.

32:52 Something I’ve never shot before

 

I’ve never shot a life size bronze of the 3 wise monkeys before..

One more shot of this 19th century masterpiece...

 

Completed in 1896 for $110,000, the impressive granite structure was constructed from stones quarried and pre-cut near Burnet County, Texas. Each piece was numbered and shipped for assembly, raised by a windlass pulled by donkeys.

Another beautiful tarn, further up the track from Moss Eccles Tarn, with a backdrop of Lakeland fells in the distance.

Apparently, Anhinga is from a Brazilian Indigenous language meaning "devil bird". I always thought of them as the wise men of the waters though.

This interesting dog appeared to be thinking quite intently as I snuck of shot of him.

for the things which he has not,

but rejoices

In a rare computer simulation it was possible to make visible the dark matter halo (clump) that has been bothering me for years. Lens-wise, I used the 7Artisans manual lens at F5.6; two LED lights. The clump (now made visible) has a lot to answer for when it comes to the stability of my self and the velocity with which it accelerates towards its dissolution.

A very wintery looking scene at Wise Een Tarn with the Langdales providing a familiar yet alpine looking backdrop.

Huancavelica, Peru

"I rejoice that there are owls. Let them do the idiotic and maniacal hooting for men. It is a sound admirably suited to swamps and twilight woods which no day illustrates, suggesting a vast and underdeveloped nature which men have not recognized. They represent the stark twilight and unsatisfied thoughts which all [men] have."

Always watching and waiting...

From Highland Avenue in Hollywood, Los Angeles.

I sat next to this calm grey or blue heron in Boca Raton, Florida for a half hour - and his equanimity was inspiring. Maybe some rubbed off.
