It is a smashing lens Kerry ... I use it a lot ...

Such sad news … Ryewolf was informed last night as Leon had seen a posting apparently by her daughter on Facebook and we didn’t want to post anything until we could confirm with a member of her family as both Rye and I do not use Facebook . Dee last telephoned me on October the 24th with the news that instigated this thread and sadly told me her internet and phone access was quite limited in hospital. Last night Rye made contact with her son who confirmed the sad news . Such a stalwart, Dee loved this Forum and despite all the problems that beset her over the past few years, she never wavered in her support, even apologising (when she was poorly and unable to walk far with her hip problems,)that she was unable to get out much with her camera . My sincere condolences go out to her family and friends. We will miss Dee on this Forum … she was one of the reasons Rye and I wanted to keep the Forum going … RIP dear friend …..

Sorry … no

A fine silhouetted tree Mik .

Ewe are aren’t you !!… and living up to the old adage referring to the well known trait that sheep have when deciding which way to go ….

The ubiquitous cabbage white…. The caterpillars will decimate the cabbages in your kitchen garden but morph into angelic looking butterflies ready to lay their eggs and start the whole saga all over again ! Their work as pollinators is their saving grace … it’s all about the balance of nature … so easily tipped ….

I have looked again for this little gem over the past two weeks but sadly he appears to have gone … mind you the weather has been blowing a gale with persistent rain so maybe he is staying at home watching movies by the log fire too !

Ah thank you Paul … … I have to say it was a real bonus to have the opportunity as various issues have prevented me from using my camera as often as I usually do these past few months. It certainly was on my bucket list !

Wow Cheryl…. That’s quite astonishing … and thanks for the info Mik …

It’s often good to go back to reprocess an image … it’s an evolving process I find that is commensurate often with ones learning experience and expertise … you must be pleased with the result ….

Never fails to impress with your macro work Paul …

He’s becoming quite a macro specialist it seems… congrats Mik …and thanks for posting so regularly … your support on the forum is appreciated …

Wow..... what an improvement Fogey ... awesome detail extracted on his ( or her )coat... exposure looks so much better ... A magnificent creature ....

Thank you all …I am just so chuffed to have caught this little chap on camera … getting POTW is a bonus ….

Understandably there were only a small number of photos. posted this week as many of us were caught up in preparations for the Christmas holiday season but this image caught my attention both for it's content and ambiguous and amusing clever title ... Dented Wing by Mikbone wins POTW so congratulations Mik See original post on link below :- https://www.tipf.co.uk/forums/topic/59331-dented-wing/#comment-251018

That looks seasonal Mik !

Those crazy, hazy, lazy days of Summer eh ?

Yeah reminds me a lot of Charles Rennie Mackintosh's design work.. I wondered if it was a restaurant frontage but sounds like its apartments .. Looks gorgeous ...

Flippin' boy racers eh !

Good question !!!

A first class shot Mik ! Amazing detail and a fortuitous capture ... Patient or lucky to get both at the same time !
