“Now she’s back in the atmosphere…”
You may know the song by the group, “Train”. It’s a fine piece of poetry that suits this blog well as I’ve not published for nigh on six months.
It also has a line, that as a photographer I’m enamoured with, “Did you dance along the light of day…”
So no, the blog hasn’t been busy the past few months, and mostly because your scribe and his character set have been either busy on other things, or in the case of EE laid up with a bung knee, that in the end has had some surgery, and finally the pain has gone and now its some exercises, mostly walking, to bring the episode to a conclusion.
So we have spent little time in the bush, and even less time working with bird photography. And just as well, as many of the locations we normally would work at bereft of birds. Like someone came with a big vacuum cleaner and scooped them all up.
Followers of the blog from early days, may recall that I usually re-jig the web page during the end of the year break and move in a slightly different direction for the new year.
Haven’t figured it out in detail yet, but after a bit of introspection, I decided to pay the hosting and naming rights for 2026, so figured I should at least attempt to get some of my money’s worth.
Blogs of this sort seem to become a little like dinosaours, overwhemed by the next new tech thing. Several I’ve followed over the years are now either defunct, closed, or just a mere shadow of their former glory.
So, watch this space, as they used to say.
I’m thinking that one photo and a few words or a few photos and less words might be the direction.
Also, I’m including a link to my Flickr site as that has regular new work featured and it will show up at the bottom of the blog as a clickable presentation.
To everyone how has stuck with the blog, and those who have been recent viewers, Thanks. I appeciate your comments.
I hope the festive season be one of joy and peace and that 2026 be the year for great photo opportunities for you.
“… may the wind sweep you off your feet”
