Okay, it's not actually within our backyard, but it's just beyond it. The yard behind our house borders a large park that is just being developed. The park was recently seeded, and the straw was put down as mulch. I took this shot while standing on our backyard deck. I think these Sandhill Cranes must have been eating the grass seed.
I know that there's not a lot going on in this image. But I rather like the repetitive poses of the birds, and I thought it was kind of cool that I could get this shot without leaving home, so I decided to go with it. The abundance of Sandhill Cranes in the area near our new home in Michigan has been one of the pleasant surprises of living here.
If it wasn't for the evil thorns I would love, love, love these plants (wild blackberries). But alas they have cat-claw sharp and plentiful thorns that refuse to let me and my clothing go if they get any chance to grab hold.
However the berries are absolutely delicious and worth the risk. They rarely make it inside because I am a berry fiend ... but when they do and a smoothie is made the brilliant purple colour is outstanding and a 'wow' is often heard rolling off my tongue.

Something a bit different. Not an old barn, but one of the nicest yards I've ever seen!

I was reminded that the mirrorless cameras focus better at high apertures than their DSLR counterparts, so I decided to try the 2x extender with it. This spotted towhee shot is not as sharp as without, but certainly pulls the distance in better, and tracked well. Handheld in our yard.

Allium is a genus of monocotyledonous flowering plants that includes the cultivated onion, garlic, scallion, shallot and leek as well as chives and hundreds of other wild species.
The generic name Allium is the Latin word for garlic,[3] and Linnaeus first described the genus Allium in 1753. Some sources refer to Greek αλεω (aleo, to avoid) by reason of the smell of garlic.[4] The cooking and consumption of parts of the plants is due to the large variety of flavours and textures of the species.

Le château d'Olhain est une forteresse des xiiie et xve siècles2. Elle se situe à Fresnicourt-le-Dolmen, dans le Pas-de-Calais, sur la Lawe.
Le château est composé d'un corps de ferme, et de la forteresse elle-même, surmontée de son ancienne tour. Des douves en partie en eau et en partie comblées sont enjambées par deux ponts, un pour l'accès à la basse-cour et un pont qui relie le château à la basse-cour. La visite comporte aussi la chapelle du xixe siècle, le four à pain, la promenade le long des douves, la tour de guet de plus de trente mètres de haut, ainsi que la salle des Gardes.

Y cómo no , no iba a ser la única alegría el Rail Sider , a la distancia oteo el horizonte y se veía una cosa oscura que venía hacia mí y no me lo podía creer , hacía tiempo que no pillaba 2 mercantes seguidos y además los 2 siderúrgicos .
When I opened my drapes yesterday, I was surprised to find this guy taking a break. It is not uncommon to have Deer visit my back yard, but this is the first one with a rack that big. So, of course I had to take a picture of him.

Maggie and I were out for a bike ride and this yard looked so gorgeous just had to stop for a picture. Maggie is in the basket.
The iconic house on the way to Molson Washington. I'm sure there must be hundreds of pictures of this house with as many compositions. My favourite one is the one with a cougar sitting on the porch, appearing to be looking at the photographer.
it means he hasn't the slightest intention of putting it into practice ;-)

Last night after work I took a trip down to Royal William Yard in Plymouth, it's been ages since I've been down here in the evening so thought I'd head down for sunset to see what I could get.
It was weird being in the yard and having it be so quiet, normally on a Saturday evening the place would be full of people eating or drinking at the many restaurants and bars that are located in the area, but last night it was absolutely empty, The only people around were the residents who live there.
The shot I had planned for sunset didn't turn out too great so I headed outside of the yard to get one of my favourite compositions of the place as blue hour started.
I've not had time to go through all of my images yet but here's the first one from the visit.

Al no salir elegida New York para albergar los Juegos Olimpicos de 2012 y desestimarse la construcción del West Side Stadium (Estadio Olimpico), la ciudad decidió reurbanizar el lugar, con el proyecto de este nuevo barrio de muy reciente creación, llamándolo Hudson Yard. Este es un proyecto de enormes proporciones, en el que algunos de sus edificios son los más altos de New York , como el "30 Hudson Yards" (También conocido como North Tower, en el centro de la foto) este es un rascacielos de oficinas de 387 metros de altura con una enorme terraza suspendida de auténtico vertigo (Aún no está en servicio) Este nuevo barrio dispone además de oficinas, también de zona residencial con escuelas, grandes superficies y zonas de ocio, tiendas y la enorme estación de Pensylvania bajo sus entrañas...Todo esto en el antiguo West Side Yards a orillas del rio Hudson.
