SUNdays



It is a hard heart that would view this sunset and not wonder at the glory...

Saturday  Symmetry


A raw and chill day but harsh with the low winter sun.  Leith Water, Edinburgh - because of the deep shadow, I used the flash to bring up some of the detail of the pathway...

Wierdly, the post nearby didn't reflect it...

"The cause is hidden. The effect is visible to all."
(Ovid)





















These pelargoniums alone blossomed midwinter - the slightest shelter brings forth life!

UPDATE;;;; Just discovered over at image-in-ing that USA is having a RED DAY - intended for clothes, but think this will fit the bill!

Took lots of this ship round in Loch striven... but this was the most 'arty and scenic' so it is sneaking in here!  It was the first outing with the Fudge.

Wings on Wednesdays -
YAM's take on the good, the bad, the ugly and the downright hilarious of photographing birds.


A White-fronted Goose, which overwinters here. Taken at Dunoon's shore walk, on a sports setting and lens stretched 5x optical.

Shipping by...



This is the same foggy morning which has featured the last two weeks; actually this was the first photo of the day. As the ship drifted in, I noted the Ashleigh Jane was on her prawn run, and then got the two together!

The ship is the 'sister' of the Cemfjord, recently lost. This one is a regular on the Clyde - it is the Cemisle out of Antigua and Barbuda, 2000, cement carrier,
6000 t; 120m.












































This one was taken with the Fudge on 'toy' function, which seems to be a 'funnel nostalgia' kinda thing.

Monday's Critters



...did you think I'd used them all up last week???  Like a squirrel, I have several 'pouched' away!

(sorry to be 'recycling' so many but really have not seen any critters for a while... and anyway, these really do bear another viewing!)

SUNdays



Duthie Park, Aberdeen.

The sun was very reluctant to join us that morning!

















Taken with the 'Nik' on manual mode, 400ISO and using infill flash.
