There were two individuals, but it was impossible to get them in the same frame. So the above picture is a composite, two OOF frames with motion blur with the stump as an anchor to tie them together. Either that, or delete…

I know I’ve said this before, but I just love the bird feeder setup I have in front of the living room window. I sat down with the camera when the first birds arrived in the morning, and two and a half hours later I had 163 images. That has never, ever happened before! So,…

Now that winter is approaching, I have filled up my bird feeders to help out the little ones. There is already a lot of traffic and I have a first row seat from my living room window. Yesterday I was very happy to see the first crested tit to come for a visit, I have…

Just another average quiet Saturday in Loos. Found a toad sunning itself on the trail. At first I thought it was dead, but then I saw the throat pulsing ever so little. I don’t know if it was cold and was trying to warm itself, or if the sun caught it in mid-stride and it…

So, it was one of those dull and grey days that only brightened up at sunset. Except, I think that days just don’t get more wonderful than today! I had found this creek some way south from Loos and was itching do waterfall photography. I think that overcast days are by far the best time…

After Grey Wells yesterday, the scenery started changing from the mountaineous to the hilly and it kept that way after Williams Lake as well. We did start seeing some great autumn colours though and it was a calm day so colours reflected nicely on the roadside lakes. Then inevitably we came to what the locals…

So I’ve been thinking about trying my hand at butterfly photography. The few feeble attempts I’ve made so far haven’t amounted to much, so I decided that next year I will make a proper effort. But this morning I noticed that the bush in front of my house was getting constant attention from two sorts…

The day improved later in the afternoon so I headed for the overgrown field where I had photographed purple avens in June – I figured that the place should yield some other flowers as well and was secretly hoping for thistles. I got rewarded as there were thistles-a-plenty, with bumblebees busily working on them. I…
