Very peaceful...
This is the view from the jetty outside of the Aquarium Restaurant at Merimbula on the New South Wales coast, Australia.
The lone fisherman at the edge of the rocks caught my attention.
"Getting Away From It All"
Nice three-way colour contrast.
Sorry all your going to get from me is birds while im at my mothers house 😁
Thank you.
The clear cloudless sky imo helps on this occasion. Had the sky been more "dramatic" with clouds they probably would have been an eye-magnet drawing the eyes away from the lone fisherman on the rocks.
Very nice birds though 😁
The last couple look like they've just had a row 😉Love the second bird with bushy eyebrows and those two colourful parrots.
Looks like nice walk, I love mountain sceneries, too bad we don't have any mountains here... These 2 are my picks.
In such area you can get nice photos even if weather is "bad", sometimes it makes outcome even more interesting. Love clouds over hills/mountains.
Thanks. I used Nik plugins to process these images, my standard forest preset is Foliage (to enhance greens) and Glamour Glow (to add this soft dreamy feel) in Color Efex Pro. In some images foliage preset is casting too much yellow but I haven't had time to redo these images. Anyway, I play artistic license here, it's not documentary :D
As I commented, some images have bit too yellow cast from processing, but in that particular image it seems to fit...
Today, Norma and I headed over to Preston with our bicycles do do something called the Preston Guild Wheel ride - about 22 miles along tracks with a little bit of road.
It was a great ride (I only fell off once) and we stopped for lunch half way around.I took my Fuji X100VI and snapped a few on the way - so here's some. SOOC and only resized to keep the upload/download speed efficient.
Fixed the mis-matched quote tags at dprevived.com/t/this-week-through-your-eyes-20240601/5917/post/78941/
For anyone interested, here's how to use quote tags correctly so that posts don't end up looking like a mess and being confusing.

Yep, in fact, I'd go as far as saying that for photography, I prefer "bad" weather when out in the mountains. In this particular instance, I wanted to show my mum how amazing the mountains in The Lake District are and, for the most part, she couldn't even see them, but that's how it goes in The Lake District. We had a nice day out nonetheless and we'll try again at some point in the future.
When I started reading "The first 450m..." I thought you were going to paraphrase Douglas Adams, i.e. "The first 450m were the worst, then the next 450m, they were the worst also. The third 450m..."
That's a formidable looking mountain range and I'm sure your ridge walk was well worth suffering mobility issues the next day.
Sounds like my kind of location, although I don't think I could manage the pace these days.
Canals are great for bike rides, as there are few hills to climb. I use to love riding along the Kennet and Avon, near Bath when I lived there.
Legendary GM5 😎
The boss of the platform !
There certainly is a sensation of strength in this shot.
This is the view from the lookout at Eden, Australia, looking out over Twofold Bay.
