CS #638 - Beginning "B"

[warth man]

Well done to Klaus for coming up with an ideal solution to the weekly subject problem for all those times when we don't have one. It's attracting a good response too!

A few Bs in these three pics, all taken before the rain and warmer temperatures took the ice away. Bejewelled; branches; bird; blue tit; buds; and probably more.

"B" is for "Bird", and I think this is a purple finch. Do you folks agree?

You've shot a very lovely finch there Jim.
This species is unknown here in Europe, so it's very interesting for me.

Simply wonderful
Klaus

Al, I always love the rowing pictures you're showing.
They show the fun, the drama and the hard work of this sport.

Thank you
Klaus

Thank you Ron. But wait until we reach "Q"...
I hope you mean "More" and not "Bore"...

You've shown wonderful pictures

Badlands

The Dubois Wyoming Badlands after last night's snowstorm. Shot from my driveway.

Never seen them in snow. Looks much better than the standard tourist pictures in summer.

Very well taken

Barns. A pair of white, a pair of red.

Great capture Andy. The second one is my favorite of the pair.

Amazing woodwork. Wow!

Found on the Beach

Nice shot of the shell. It’s been too cold here to even think of going to the beach, and all the Summer time decorations are stowed away for warmer weather.

Did a short hike up on the Colorado National Monument today. There were lots of big rocks and desert bighorn sheep but sadly my only snap of the latter was backlit.

I really like the shot of the rock. Really reminds me of the area.

Boo-boo. Apparently, one should not mix white underwear with red shop rags. Washing in hot water was another mistake. On a positive note, my underwear now sports some berry nice colors.

Maybe you could bleach the briefs?

Very cool shot!

 

[NEF Said]

Very nice! Do you use it? I am a dedicated safety razor guy with badger brush and all. Which reminds me, I'll have to take a shot of my badger brush tomorrow for the thread. I have a straight razor, but I have only used it a couple of times and haven't gotten the hang of it.

Yes! I have six different ones (brand and design) that I rotate through, using each one 60-100 times. Two new ones (like the Booker) and the rest vintage.

I still have a safety razor that I use on travel, and like very much.

Good point. I have two brushes, one a badger, and a bowl (scuttle) actually. Will have to shoot them tomorrow!

I really enjoy the comfort and pampering of an old school shave.

Something rather unique for this part of the Northwest ... snow in my Backyard!!

And, yes, we are absolute wimps compared to other parts of the US/Canada. A few inches here and we're facing our very own "apocalypse"!! (Especially according to the non-stop TV media coverage of every flake that falls!!)

I take some solace in the fact that I spent many years in Wyoming and Montana ... so I do know what WINTER is like and, most importantly, how to drive!!

Cheers!!

Nice one Ken. I hear Bellingham is having a snow day for schools, they have 1" of snow
