came across this today while out driving, was no sooner out the car that it started to rain, which turned out for the best as it probably looks better like this rather than bathed in sunshine. (Located in Warners Road, just off Geelong Ballan Road.) / /

Here in the western top-end of Australia another pulse storm rockets up high in the atmosphere and unleashes a torrent of rain onto those lucky few beneath it …relief from the stifling heat and humidity associated with the late build up season…Don’t wait for it to come to you though….they are not called pulse storms for no reason…and just as quickly as it forms, it disapates…not even a drop at this location with its core within several km’s…This Magnetic termite field has no doubt scored well already this season with the plain a vibrant green glowing beneath a spectacular 30seconds of sunshine. / / – for those interested, a bit more about this photograph,my thinking and feelings about it. (taken from one of my own comments) / / This photograph like so many others of mine is born from a concept I have had for many years…for me it sums up the region beautifully and is what I’d class as iconic in some ways as I am always drawn and intrigued by the integral link between climate,topography and nature – it’s a marvellous symbiotic existance of all things being…. many trips through out these type of plains wishing or visualising, but the componants never aligning left me disatisfied with the results til now… / / / EOS A2, Fuji Velvia 50. / ©T.Middleton2008 bubblesite / photography blog / portfolio —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—— / / / see more of my weather related photography by clicking below / /

“Think of the land, the rolling hills, green rich but wild fertile land that the menfolk can’t quite manage. The gorsedd mound, that ancient barrow: if we spend the night there we end up dead, mad or a bard! She is that woman/land that feels so rich and giving, so generous, but she is so completely untamed” / Words by Emma Restall-Orr Coloured pencil on smooth cartridge paper

Captured on Princess Stree in the darkness of the dawn light. I just love light-trails from vehicles in these kinds of pictures. I had to stand in the middle of the road with traffic flowing past in the early hours to get this shot, but I think it was worth the danger;) I was born in Edinburgh Scotland, and was always amazed as a child at the crowds of people along Princess Street. It always seemed to be teeming with life. Today Princess Street is being ruined by the local council’s traffic schemes and most of the high class shops have been replaced by tourist shops selling garbage. IMHO:-) One day it will spring back into life again, I’m sure. / Captured with Nikon D700 and 24-120mm: On a tripod with a small aperture and daylight WB setting, ISO 100. Long exposure.

WILD & FREE Duma – the Swahili name for cheetah, can weigh between 110 to 140 pounds and have a lifespan of between 10 to 20 years. (Masai Mara – Kenya) / / Listed as ‘Vulnerable’ in 2008 / / The known cheetah population is approximately 7,500 adult animals. Additional areas where cheetah status is poorly known are unlikely to raise the total to over 10,000. Given Myers (1975) estimate of 15,000 cheetahs in Africa in the 1970s, a decline of at least 30% is suspected over the past 18 years (3 generations). The decline is primarily due to habitat loss and fragmentation, as well as killing and capture of cheetahs as livestock depredators, primarily, as well as for trade (IUCN Cats Red List Workshop 2007).

Gardener’s cottage, in West Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh, Scotland. Princes Street Gardens were acquired by the city in 1876 and further landscaped by the City Architect Robert Morham (1839 -1912). Morham also built the Gardener’s cottage in 1886. To the right of the cottage is the semicircle of rectangular standing stones depicting the history of the Royal Scots Regiment. The central stone is inscribed with names of the campaigns in which the Regiment took part and a central bronze plaque shows the insignia of George VI. The memorial was unveiled on 5th August 1952 by HRH Princess Mary, the Colonel in Chief. The final stone was unveiled on 9th of May 2007 by HRH Princess Ann to commemorate the end of the Regiment. Behind the Royal Scots memorial you can see the stately towers of New College on The Mound and to the right of this is The Hub, at the top of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile. Its gothic spire – the highest point in central Edinburgh – towers over the surrounding buildings, including the adjacent castle.

Another attempt at something a little bit different for me. I generally stick to colour, but I thought I would try converting a few of my images into mono.
