Good stuff.  Jazz, that is a really nice sunset.  What filters, if any, did you use?

 

None!  Just an extensive amount of of processing (fine-tuning, not just going crazy with sliders and hoping stuff works ), I wanted it to look realistic/technically excellent with a touch of "flair".  It doesn't look as though I over-did it which I'm very happy about.

 

Easy Bakes, I really like the butterfly shot!

@jazz: That's a great shot!  Love the vanishing point and the sunset reflection.

Naturally.  BTW, did you run your spell checker on that last post?  "eliments" => "elements".  Your accent is showing.

[Mary Maurine Mayo 984]

No I forgot to use the spell checker....opps...

anways...

I will see if I can do a black and white drawing of it first then attempt to paint it.

another picture taken from my apartment window. The geese are back. I am pretty sure this is a pare but I cant tell which of them is the male or female.

[A Nonny Moose 8,262]

Not sharp enough to tell, and quite a bit too far away.  Looks almost abstract.

Shot at Highdown in recent fog

[jmsepe 2,039]

Nice fog. I miss those days I had lived in higher elevated areas where I get to see this every Dec-Feb. 

[AkemiAzula 280]

Highdown is only eighty metres asl and quite close to thr channel

[A Nonny Moose 8,262]

Quite a nice fog shot, Mark.  Very moody.

Taken at the supermarket I work at, you can see Highdown from here

Foot track near Highdown which I use to walk to work in good weather

[A Nonny Moose 8,262]

[Mary Maurine Mayo 984]

Bee

 

[A Nonny Moose 8,262]

Got'im in mid-flight.  Looks more like a wasp, frankly.  Wrong stripes for a honey-bee, so bee-ware.

[A Nonny Moose 8,262]

That last one is bleak.  Very dramatic.

Ever hear the story about the guy who was arrested for throwing rocks at the seagulls.  Seagulls are a protected species.

 

At the arraignment he told the judge he was determined to leave no tern unstoned.

The reason sea gulls are protected is that the ecological niche would be filled by rats.  Take your choice.

All good puns have their place.  Maybe in this case it is only 2/3 of a pun. (PU)

Dorking in Surrey. I rode from Horsham to there yesterday via Leiths Hill which is the highest point in southeastern England and atop which is a gothic tower.

Dorking station with a Southwest Trains service.
