BradleyPhoto Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 This man cycled into the covid surge testing centre and was refused entry to the do it yourself in your car lane (which was empty!) and directed to the rather long pedestrian queue. Seemed a bit ridiculous. Not sold, although two others have from that morning’s trip to the testing centre have which is nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Morgan Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 14 hours ago, Betty LaRue said: Cedar Waxwing, one of my favorite birds. Their feathers are very fine and soft-looking. I seldom see them because they tend to habitat woods and especially near lakes. They will come into town occasionally if food runs short in the country. During winter, I have seen them feed on juniper berries like in this image, and they came into town once and stripped the winter crabapples. I never see just one, they travel in flocks. And twice, in late winter, February, they have traveled with a flock of American robins. In fact, those two flocks had a frenzy with my crabapples while I stood trembling from excitement with my Nikon and 80-400 lens. Most of the images were unusable because I was shaking, I was so thrilled. Its been 3 years since moving, and I’ve yet to see them here. This image is one I processed from 2007 when in Oklahoma. A real pretty bird Betty. I don't think we have them here in Ontario. Jill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autumn Sky Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 This is image taken just few days ago & uploaded to Alamy yesterday. Picnic bench with old cart wheel looking across Bow Valley and Town of Canmore towards landmark Three Sisters Mountain, Canadian Rockies Focus on foreground would be natural for this kind of photo, but I wanted mountains sharp too - so I took 2 photos with different focus, then blended them via layer masks in Photoshop. I really like this one & uploaded only to Alamy and Photoshop micro btw in the meantime it snowed big around here, so this is all white. It snows as I write this too 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too high up for depth of field then? About f11 or 16 would probably have covered that, or perhaps I'm old-fashioned😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like this. It’s the dappled shade, I think. It imparts the mood of entering a refreshing coolness or something, a feeling, maybe, that I recognize from my past.

Thank you Betty. Some motorhomes also look like that with their elevated roof LOL!! I guess you probably know but this bird can kill you. Dad incubates the blueish/greenish eggs clutch, mum has nothing to do with it. Dad is rather protective. Never approach a cassowary with chicks! He will rip you open with his claw.

So much to see and explore on this planet. Damn this covid Great pics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
