Viewing the larger size is essential!

I won't be going barefoot in my garden ever again!

It's difficult to decide which is the parent bird and which the fledgling !
But here again no need for Photoshop treatments.

I have been trying to get a shot like this one for at least a month.
It did not require any Photoshop touching up or other treatments !

Took this....

Then in the park on the way home didn't quite manage to shoot ( not literally ) a squirrel!!
But managed to get a Parakeet!

Have just cleaned the sensor on my camera, and not a blemish to be see, the colour is also good, but it doesn't have anything to do with cleaning the sensor

I took this last week. I will pop in the park this week and see how they are doing. I hope all 12 will still be there and hopefully a little bigger.

I'm still going through the reems of photographs I took at the Badminton horse trials last week. Found this this morning. The main reason we were actually at Badminton wasn't for the action itself but in the hope of getting a shot of a very famous posh lady with the view to getting several hundred pounds from the photo agency which we regularly use.
Oddly everytime we got anywhere near said woman and had anything that even resembled a long lense, this 4x4 would literally just drive straight into our line of sight and stop. This continued for some time, until eventually I decided to go and confront the guys inside. Upon peering through the window I soon realised that behind the tweet jackets were two very large scary guys.

'Perhaps it's just a coincidence but why do you keep driving straight into my shots?'
'No coincidence mate, NO PHOTOS'

Enough said I thought.

I've no idea who the hell they were, some sort of private security I guessed.

I know Usksider has posted a number of pictures of rusty items the next couple are just for him.

This is a lamp stand, located on the end of the pier, this was where the lamp was positioned during the night to show sailors where the end of the pier was.

This is a seating bracket, where the beams of the pier sit; this is one that remains after the pier burnt down, well part of it burnt down.

I think this was originally used to hold back the bank of the local pond, but over the years the bank has eroded away just leaving the pole in the water, about 2 feet away from where the bank is now

LOOK AT ME!

SEE WHEN YOUR FIRED.

Was out with a photography mate tonight and we managed to find an untouched and completely inaccessible beach down in the Vale of Glamorgan, he literally had to teeter off the edge of a cliff to shoot it, as seen here!
