Thanks guys for sharing.
Some of my efforts this year. These were taken near a landfill site
that is being turned into a wildlife area . . . which is wonderful . . .

I like to use filters after taking pics on an iPod touch, which I now prefer to a full camera.
The first two pics, kids had sprayed some plants silver. I liked the effect . . . and accentuated the silver . . .

Filters now turn pics into 'sketch like' images . . .

I wish I were a better photographer, too many beautiful sunrises never captured

Wow.
Either a giant Grasshopper (or the invasion has started) or maybe a great lens. What are you using?
I love grasshoppers. So delicious (oops ignore that comment)

That has inspired me to find the focal length of the 5MP lens of the Ipod.
How incredible.

Guys get out your smartphones . . . must be time for 'mindful observation' . . .
:clap:

Just click on attach a file . . .

@Thailand Tom - wow! I didn't know you did so much photography!

This one really brings some of J.M.W. Turner's paintings to my mind:

Bunks

Some lovely snaps there people.......

I only ever take photo's of my kids these days! I won't bore you with those.

Vastmind

fish....

ThailandTom

@riverflow yea I studied it along side graphic design and quite like photography. That specific image you pointed out is meant to be 'dream like' and is a photo I took and then played around with in Photoshop in various ways.

Vastmind

@Bunks.....
Is it a bird?
No....it's my kid.

Cory

rocks by the beach complimented by the setting sun.

My buddha bust and candles.

Swirling clouds from a beautiful storm.

ThailandTom

@Cory love the stormy photograph, I love storms. I am drawn to their sheer power and presence. This is not a very good picture but it is of me admiring a storm.

Nice one @Vastmind.......looks like a fun sorta guy!

My daughter is obsessed (and I mean OBSESSED!!) with fairies to the point that she thinks she is one.........

Marketers (being the smart people they are) have latched on to this and created places like this.

She is the girl up the back with the yellow dress on.

--- actually i like the shot and the composition + the colors of black to medium to light to a very light ( the wall). and then the contrast made by the guy standing. that placed a twist in your story. mixture is good IMHO. :thumbsup:

kid seems to be in a pear tree?
. . . and above you garden shrine area which I think you posted?
tree, a great kid, garden shrine . . . you must live practically adjacent to the purelands . . .

My daughter is obsessed (and I mean OBSESSED!!) with fairies to the point that she thinks she is one.........

The mermaids tell me she is right. She is indeed a fairy. I am a lobster, I know these things.

Here is a 'bee viola' for your fairy. Only a real fairy know wether to pick or look after flowers . . .

This is a guy who has won the award on the BBC website for astronomer photography. I must say some of these are amazing, it is not just simply images of space, but the photographer has combined aspects of our planet with the heavens above.
