This was taken early morning when the dew was still around.
Here in Florida, USA, Osprey’s don’t mind being around people and build their nest wherever they can,high enough from predators. However getting a picture of them in flight is tough because they hardly ever land in public places like Pelicans or Seagulls. However when they are flying along the beach here they do come down out of the sky to dive in and snatch their prey(fish) and one must be in the right place and the right time to capture these moments. The prize for any photographer would be to catch one just as they crash into the ocean and grab a fish in their “Talons”, but that is just wishful thinking, cause I have yet to see someone capture that moment on camera…..

Amish roads are filled with horse drawn carriages, usually much more subdued than this “high flyer”. The hot rod of the Amish set, I suspose.. This image was digitally enhanced in photoshop, using the watercolor filters. Somewhere in Amish Country PA between Intercourse, and Strasburg PA
I took this image about half way up on the Singapore Flyer. / This was looking across the river from the main area of the City. / It was such an awesome panorama. / So totally different from what we are used to seeing. / ( panorama x2 ) ===============

Another in the series of the “Flyer”. The Kingston Flyer was originally for the express passenger train which ran between Kingston, Gore and Invercargill and sometimes Dunedin. The service started in the 1890s, but the Kingston part ceased in 1937. In 1971, the New Zealand Railways Department decided to operate the Kingston Flyer as a heritage service. Until the rails were damaged by floods, it ran between Kingston and Invercargill. / In 1982 the Flyer returned to Kingston. / The Kingston Flyer runs with its wooden carriages seven months of the year from 1 October to 30 April, two tourist trains daily, with the exception of Christmas Day. This photo was taken at Kingston Station on the banks of Lake Wakatipu / Featured in Powered by Steam Group

Red Kangaroo. The largest of all living marsupials, the Red Kangaroo can stand over 9 feet tall. As their name suggests, the males have a red colouring, although the females (like the one in this photo) are a bluey-grey colour. Hence their nickname ‘Blue Flyers’ Red Kangaroos tails are very strong (the same as most macropods) and can support its full weight. This beautiful giant can leap over 5 metres in one hop!!

This is one of formerly 400 figurines, displayed since 2002 in Hamburg, northern Germany. / Those figurines remind the viewer of Johann Wilhelm Bentz (1787-1854), called “Hummel”, who was a water-carrier in Hamburg. The name “Hummel” wasn’t meant in a friendly way, so whenever a group of children called the heavy-loaded man “Hummel, Hummel” he reacted annoyed and shouted back “Mors, Mors”, meaning something like “Screw you!”. Nowadays “Hummel, Hummel – Mors, Mors!” is a way to say hello in a friendly way, just like during carnival season. / The figurines were designed by art students or famous artists and were auctioned for charitable cause in 2006. Only a few are left in the city. / This one can be found next to the “High Flyer” – a fixed balloon, rising up to 150m above ground, near the port of the city.
This was taken with a Nikon D90 around sunset at Yanchep National Park, where kangaroos graze freely. They are quite tame and so I didn’t really need to use the zoom and was able to get really close to them. I’m pretty sure this was a buck, but I didn’t go round front to check because I didn’t want to disturb the doe grazing. This guy threw me a casual glance then continued snoozing in the evening sun. / Incidentally, male kangaroos are called bucks, boomers, jacks, or old men; females are does, flyers, or jills, and the young ones are joeys
This was taken with a Nikon D90 around sunset at Yanchep National Park, outside the Yanchep Inn, where kangaroos graze freely, as they do throughout the park. This joey is more than old ( and large ) enough to be out of the pouch to graze, and it must be pretty crowded in there as you can see by his rear legs stuck up over his head! However, he decided to turn in for the night but grab a snack before bedtime. / Incidentally, male kangaroos are called bucks, boomers, jacks, or old men; females are does, flyers, or jills, and the young ones are joeys
