Wild turkeys are native to these parts, as America's pilgrim forebears soon discovered; I feel like I should have one o' them funny hats they wore and a blunderbuss. Enjoy.

    Ah, I see you haven't necessarily seen my earlier landscape / nature photographs, Danik, since you only joined in January. I suppose nothing can match the quiet of a snow-covered landscape, but it can be pretty solitary in the summertime as well.











    No I didnīt see these before. A beautiful play with the colours. The sun seems transformed in a candle in the water. And I love the birches too. We donīt have them here.

    I'm glad you like them, Danik. Of course, those are just a few I picked from my Flickr page, if you want to see more, just follow the links on the images.


    Meanwhile, something newer:

    Enjoying the posts.
    Tony's phone reminded me of a B&W photo I snapped of a long abandoned gas pump standing in a field of grass. A sign on the side of the pump read "Contains Lead". How times have changed.

    North Star winter archive is a welcome sight as the temps here are getting close to 100

    TC, did I ever tell you I like wild turkey?

    No, you didn't. I mentioned earlier that I used to like it, till I found it dun make me sick. But I'll pass your praise on to my own wild turkeys next time I see them.

    The two last, I suppose are a study of the waterdrops on that glass.

    Thank you, Danik. Yes, printing is something I will need to start doing at some point in the future, and all that other stuff.

    And yes, these are all water drops, but not on glass but on an oven tray.
