A Bit of Plant

Posted on May 24, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

This is the same dusky moorhen (Gallinula tenebrosa) as seen here. It spent a bit of time trying to take this bit of plant that, whilst appearing dead, remained firmly attached. Eventually it left with a twig. This is my … Continue reading →

Moving Through Water

Posted on May 22, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

A photo of what I believe is a dusky moorhen (Gallinula tenebrosa) moving through water. Not much to say about it, but I do like the shape of the water around the bird. I hope you enjoy.

Animal Machinery

Posted on May 21, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

I should’ve had this on here sooner, but I haven’t. Long week and rather trying election cycle. Anyway, here’s a photo I took a few weeks ago. Not sure what I thought at the time, but I feel these look … Continue reading →

Partial Cranes

Posted on May 20, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

A long day so here is a photo showing parts of some cranes rather than their whole frame. I’m not sure what I was going for here, but I do like that there are a few things you can make … Continue reading →

Hill in Fog

Posted on May 14, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

Taken around the same time as this photo. I feel as though I could’ve done a better job with this photo. I like the implied eeriness, but it doesn’t offer much otherwise. I hope you enjoy.

Platforms During a Storm

Posted on May 13, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

This was taken around the same time as this photo. When I was processing this I was trying to get the rock area to come forward a bit more (so to speak) as it seemed really flat. I imagine that … Continue reading →

Morning at the Port

Posted on May 10, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

Taken last week, this photo was. I thought the colour from the sun would come through a bit more. To be fair it was a bit more on the subtle side, but I didn’t do a good enough job of … Continue reading →

Swan Bathing

Posted on May 9, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

When I took this photo it was the first time I’d seen a swan bathe in this manner. It almost looks like it’s coming to surface rather than floating there. Almost. I had to crop a lot of this photo … Continue reading →

Sleeping Goose

Posted on May 8, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

Last week I saw a goose sleeping. Decided to take a photo, as evidenced by the photo below. This is my submission into the one hundred-and-ninety-eighth Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. The theme for this one is “Light and Shadow“. The host of … Continue reading →

Anas superciliosa

Posted on May 7, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

Also known as the pacific black duck. This is a pretty straightforward shot. Not much to say, though I do like how the duck affects the water. I hope you enjoy.
