    I noticed this fly on the clothesline, repeatedly spitting out and reabsorbing a droplet of water. It was quite fascinating, so I captured the moment with my Nikon D850 and 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6G lens.

    Returning home from a holiday to Surfers Paradise, we stayed at a quiet little motel in Gympie. Across the road was a little park with a pond and walking track. The trees were lined with Cattle Egrets, some of which, showing off their breeding plumage. This guy was pretty high up, looking spectacular showing off his gorgeous colours. I just had to snap a pic.

    Title or Location: Ellis Square, Savannah, GA
    I met young Miles at Ellis Square while he was doing some rather gymnastic break dancing. Luckily, for me, I was using my Nikon Z7 which allowed me to switch from raw to jpeg giving me 9 frames per second on motor drive. I was shooting aperture preferred and used f/8 the resulting shutter speed was 1/1600 of a second. 9fps sounds fast but I only had 6 nicely composed shots out of 120 exposures.

    Title or Location: Cannock Chase, Staffordshire, UK
    I had spent the better part of the day moving silently through the edges of the chase looking to photograph deer. It was one of those days that seemed perfect on paper: overcast skies that softened the light, barely a breath of wind, and a camera battery at full charge. But nature is nothing if not humbling. The deer remained ghost-like, unseen despite hours of quiet patience and soft steps.By late afternoon my hopes had dimmed so I began the slow walk back to the car. The path wound through
