Hands

Fin's hand on Edith's.

About to Fly

A female Reed Bunting at take-off. Wicken Fen Nature Reserve. 300mm lens, 1/2000th @ f/4.5.

Soft Materials

'Er in the Darkroom had an exhibition this holiday weekend with artists from other areas, so I stole her fisheye lens and got my feet in most of the photos. Here's one I cut them out of earlier.

Lapwing 2

A huge enlargement from a long lens that was still not sharp enough, so I posterised it.

Marsh Harrier

Clocked at Fen Drayton Lakes RSPB reserve today, this female is apparently "last year's bird". A long shot for identification only.

Fin's first birthday

Finley came round today and met his great-grandmother again. He's ten days short of one year old; she's nearly ninety-eight.

Greylag Goose

A grey day at RSPB Fowlmere, too windy for small birds, but the geese got airborne.
