    I was liking the lichen on today's walk in the high desert of NM.

    I'm looking for a likeness in the lichen. No luck! 😁

    It's ok to be liking the lichen.

    It's alright to be looking for a likeness in the lichen,

    Just don't be lickin' the lichen.

    😱

    Rich

    Don't you think it would be appropriate to image-capture the not-to-be licked liked lichen with a Leica? 🤣

    A different method of image "processing?" 😁. Hey, you started it with the not-to-be licked lichen! 😁

    Very nice images Morris.
    I can imagine how hard that would have been to take as they don't make easy subjects.
    Love those eyes in the second shot.

    Cheers

    Nice shots Bob.
    I often get nervous about photographing flowers outside someone's fence when I am on a walk, but if you don't take it you won't have it.

    I recall once a long time ago I was photographing some Cockatoos on someone's lawn from within my car while waiting for my wife to return.
    One of the neighbours came up and asked me what I was doing because that house was on the market for sale and something something something.
    Anyway I showed him the birds and he was happy and went off to interrogate other people :-)

    Cheers
    Paul

    Thank you Paul,

    it was tricky yet I had the only camera that was detecting the eyes though it was intermittent. An A1 and and R5 were not. It might have been my reach advantage.

    Thanks, Paul. Not much of an issue taking pics in our neighborhood. Maybe people are used to me doing so. I've lived in the same house for 37 years!.

    I have joined a photography interest group and this week's theme was city lights. I found that the B&W versions were more interesting. XT3 16-80mm lens

    What a great sequence Morris.
    The owl looked so very tired.
    Was the wide eyed shot, taken at the same time?

    Secrets of the Cathedral

    I tried the Fuji UK 'free lens loan' service to coincide with a photo workshop held at Peterborough Cathedral. My weapon of choice was the 90mm F/2. In summary: the 90 F/2 is very very nice. See what you think!
