nice and crisp there Kinich, nice. One day I will get to Kew if I ever get down that way. Eden project is another on my bucket list.

The Robin and Nuthatch look a tad wet…been raining that day?

Thanks, the Eden project is something I’ve been wanting to get to for a while but so far never made it.

As for the weather it was a rather damp day but the the rain didn’t start till later in the day, the robin & nuthatch (and the squirrel) where taken in a nature conservation area of the gardens which has quite dense trees and shrubs so the whole area was somewhat damp.

Has it stopped raining ?

Not that I had noticed, but they haven’t lifted the drought restrictions yet so I assume what we are currently experiencing is either not real or if it is then it is the ‘wrong sort’.

Well it was definitely the wrong sort of rain here in Wales.  Over on the west coast they had dreadful rain, a months supply falling in just 24 hours. I guess you may have seen asomething about it on the news. Where I am it was not so bad, as we live almost at 1200 feet, and it was just that the road outside ressembled a shallow river as it ran downhill.

We have an overcast sky today and the occasional drizzle so its staying semi cool today while our air conditioner is broke.

Bah, woke up to a blown monitor today so am late checking the threads.

Still, I like to do nature scenes for my desktop, bring the outside in as it were. Often just colors and textures over actual scenes though.

Done with my old Canon Powershot G9 awhile back.

Cheers

Oh, I love the water droplets on the flower.

Thank you! And yes, I like when something just ‘comes out’ right, especially the quick picts where you’re busy dodging weather yourself. LOL

So here is another I call the ‘icy sumac star’. Have quite a few from this storm that hit us a couple years back. This one though, I just liked the whole ‘lightness’ feel if that makes sense? Or maybe it is delicate?

Well, cheers at any rate :D

Oh, last one for a bit to leave on a warmer note: “Poppy Wings”

Cheers

OOOOH photo thread hehe

I have a Cannon EOS Digital Rebel that I’ve had for years now that I take pictures with
(Duckies, Mill and Covered Bridge)

We also have a cheapo Samsung Camera that I LOVE that takes really nice pics and was like $100.
Best money I ever spent (Flower and Lake)

ATM I think these are my fav pictures that either myself or my husband have taken though we have thousands. We spend whole days sometimes just taking photos as a family since both me and my husband and both our kids love to take pictures

I love taking photos, can’t get hubby to go with me when I feel like taking photos. You are lucky. Most of the time he will drop me off, and I give him a call when I am done walking around taking photos. I don’t drive other than drive him crazy/ These are some awesome photos

i shot the squirrel, but i did not shoot the chickadee

There are so many fantastic photos being posted here in this thread. I have enjoyed looking at each and very one.
The first photo of of Sassy my 5 year old box turtle. The second photo is of an Cicada, very common here in the southern part of the USA.
That last photos is of an green anole sun bathing on a yucca plant. All photos was taken in my front yard.

I have to take pics for my Photo courses.
I’m have a Minolta SRT 201 and a Minolta Maxxum 7000. I use only the second one because the other seems even more prehistoric.

Can’t show photos. I’m doing nudes.
