This was taken near Canyonville, Oregon. I had a devil of a time getting down the very steep banks without falling. I had my gear in a pack so my hands were free to cling to trees and rocks. I knew the light would be difficult because it was early afternoon, so I brought my Lee filters. Getting up was actually a little easier using all four limbs to scurry back up.
Macro Mondays: Bottle(s)

My son, Micah and I went on holiday last week. It was lovely to be away in the countryside surrounded by beautiful trees and having access to a wonderful pool as part of our accommodation. Micah loves water and loves to swim, so this was a perfect getaway for him. The first day we were there, Micah who is autistic and non-verbal was making his happy noises as we were on our way to the pool. Much to my dismay, a group of children rode past us on their bikes and proceeded to make nasty comments about him, intimating that he was a freak and making disgusting copying sounds. I did explain to this group about disability and they seemingly understood however the rest of our stay was marred with adults and children alike ignoring him, splashing water in his face and making demeaning comments. It's with great sadness I write these words as I have never encountered so much nastiness towards him in his 9 years. Where is the understanding, compassion and empathy in humanity going? So much hatred, bigotry, discrimination - I truly hope that there is enough love and light to counter these traits. When did we become the me first generation? We live in a diverse world, not only of colour but also ability. Everyone is human, all sacred, all with intrinsic worth. B x

Karlovka Obora or Charles Park is a little off the normal tourist track but well worth a visit. Miles of pathways to follow,streams,bridges, swimming in the lake even a raft to pull yourself across to a small island. Standard joke for the children when we where there seemed to be get to the island, then refuse to come back. Always seemed to be a reluctant parent having to cross & gather up the children. The ice cream seller always stops at the raft, which seems to empty the island,a great sales technique. Over the last few years Prague counsels have declared that a percentage of all parks have to be plant for wildlife, hence you now see large areas turned over to wildflower meadows which is fantastic & visually much better than just green grass. The area where this shot was taken was about the size of half a football pitch
Die Pfarr- und ehemalige Stiftskirche Hll. Primus und Felician liegt auf dem höchsten Punkt der Halbinsel. Die vermutlich unter Bischof Waldo von Freising (regierte 884–906) errichtete, urkundlich 894 erstmals erwähnte, in ihrem heutigen Erscheinungsbild spätgotische Kirche mit romanischem Kern diente als Translatio der Reliquien der Märtyrer Primus und Felicianus. Ab Ende des 9. Jahrhunderts war sie Urpfarre und Missionszentrum des Bistums Freising in Kärnten. Die Kirche ist heute durch ihre romantische Lage am See eine der beliebtesten Firmungs- und Hochzeitskirchen Kärntens.

Oxbow Bend, Grand Teton National Park. Beautiful Sunrise views means a good place to meet other photographers. A busy spot in early morning and worth it!
We've all got that feeling
I can see you hurting
You don't think you deserve it
But, baby, you are worth it
Just open up the ceiling
Come on, let the love in
'Cause, baby, you are worth it

All the leapers including myself shooting the McLaren 570GT leaving the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix.
I did a very quick online check, and there are at least fifty songs where the mighty Ford Mustang gets a mention - with Mustang Sally being the first on the list. Which reminds me - I have a fellow village resident called Sally! Another shot for another day!
By contrast, my real car, a Mazda 2, features in one song (and that surprised me that it even got a mention in anything!) by someone called meetcute!

While my wife and I were quietly driving through the Tower Hill reserve near Warrnambool, she suddenly yelled "kingfisher!" Despite the very narrow road, I managed to squeeze over near the edge and pull up in time to see these two beauties. It is a long time since I saw and photographed a sacred kingfisher, so this was a great sight for us!

Having been given permission back out onto the main, the engineer on the "Rosario Local" throttles up his two SD40s while the brakeman waits to re-line the derail once the short train is clear. They've just finished switching Nustar Asphalt, which can be seen in the far right of this shot. This track is part of the pre-1966 AT&SF alignment, which generally followed the Rio Galisteo from near its confluence with the Rio Grande towards Lamy.
This was the culmination of a one year long desire and about a four hour wait. I had seen this shot in my head ever since beginning my time qualifying out of Albuquerque, but it was either "they don't run up here anymore" or (once regular, predictable service resumed) I was always working when this job was working. Everything fell together today though, and it was worth waiting for!

An afternoon in Worthing - these old structures make interesting photos. There is a cafe on top of this one
Whitby Abbey on the North East Coast of England on the night when the towns famous Goth Weekend and Halloween come together, the town is awash with people dressed in very elaborate costumes with many events going on all over the town, it's a real spectacle of an event which happens twice every year and really worth visiting especially for photography, everything catered for from people, architecture and landscape photography.
Some days I have to pinch myself as a photographer living in a city like London. It's ever changing skyline is a delight to explore but there are some iconic locations that whenever I see them, and trust me I've looked at this composition of the Millennium Bridge and St Pauls Cathedral literally hundreds of times over the years, that just keep pulling at my eye. I've taken a variation of this shot literally tens of times, probably more, but every day is different. Different skies, different light, different cameras, different lenses, different focal lengths - it's always worth shooting again.
This was taken back in October and I was shooting this old Leica lens on a mirrorless Olympus camera for the first time. It may sound like an expensive setup however it is anything but. The Olympus is a ten year old 16 megapixel camera, not very impressive by today's standards, and the 90mm lens, while it may have Leica written on it is at least 50 years old and can be had on eBay for around a hundred pounds (I paid £85 for my copy). I can't describe the pleasure I get from handling these old manual focus lenses, it's so different than using a modern auto-focus lens. They aren't particularly sharp in comparison but then I ask myself, how sharp does sharp have to be? I know many will disagree but for me this picture is sharp enough and the joy I get from using that old lens far outweighs any disappointment I may have of producing a picture that is not razor sharp. My joy of photography is as much to do with the taking of the pictures, the getting out there and walking with my camera, as it is to do with the pictures I produce, strange as that may sound. Perhaps that's why film photography has become such a staple in my life.

I loved this little house in one of the squares at Bergerac. It was worth a shot and to share it with you :-))
This afternoon took 228 out for an afternoon drive down to Worthing. This will be 228's last time out in 2015. Roll on next year 😃. You can also follow the preservation on facebook www.facebook.com/R228-HCD-Preservation-559573027544067/
Looking north from the summit of Goatfell. From left to right, the Corbetts Cir Mhor, Caisteal Abhail and the the gash of the Witch's Step. In the foreground on the right is the nearby top of North Goatfell, seperated from it's bigger brother by the Stacach Ridge(out of shot). And in the distance behind Cir Mhor, can be seen the Paps of Jura.
The journey to the top of Goatfell via Glen Rosa is one of the longer routes to take. But when you get views like this from the top, it's hard to deny that the it was worth every minute.
