Your Canon Photos No. 5: 4th to 10th June 2023

Great capture! It really is an impressive building.

"Und da Steffl, der schaut owi auf den oarmen Yorkshire Bua!" 😂 (Do you know the song "Fürstenfeld"?)

Love that shot - beautiful colors and a mysterious and effective composition! Well done.

Three different shots with quite different (adapted manual focus) lenses:

Thanks Dunlin,

It was good to be able to get a few more photos from the "free" area. 😀 I recognized the F22 Raptor right away.

Dunlin,

Thanks for noticing the Gadwall ducks and the rose flowers. There's much more roses to be expected as we approach summer.

Dunlin,

That's neat that you were able to visit the Knole Estate. I like that you were able to see so much of it, from outside to inside. That must be expensive to maintain; that's what I appreciate. It must be a lot of work to keep it looking nice.

Mocha,

Thanks for noticing the rose flowers. I have so many more photos of other flowers that I'll probably show next week. This is a pretty time of year for us in late spring.

Simplejoy,

You make ordinary things interesting with the softness. It's like what we may see in a dream.

You guys take such a wide variety of pictures, you make it fun to visit.

We’re in trouble. Quebec wildfires are everywhere. More than 160 active ones. Smoke everywhere. We’re in a drought. In the past years, we’ve had several abnormal climatic events. No rain in sight.

Aside from smoke, my area is spared

Benji,

I'm sorry to hear that. It looks similar to what we had in September of 2020. I took a lot of pictures. The first evening it looked interesting with the smoke designs in the sky. After that it got worse, where at ground level the smoke was like what we see in your photo. I took pictures of the sun too, like you show.

Seems like we’ll be getting help from Australia and other countries. I drove through crop fields two days ago and it was already critical, you know, the yellow grass, dust in the wind.

Wonderful. Lovely colors and composition.

We are all small compared to mother nature. Cropped and slight PP in Lightroom mobile.

Simply stunning. The colors, details (and lack thereof) works great. I would personally love to see the 2nd picture of the flower in more focus.

Carry,

That's a really nice photo. It has to be seen full size to be really appreciated.

Hi Steve. Thank you. I agree, it's best viewed in it's original size.

CarryLight,

I like that not only were you able to capture the clouds with the dark sky, but I see you caught the sunshine on the water. It's great when we are able to capture these lights and shadows together. Well done!!!
