📷 Roadside Amusement Park, Jordan

This seemingly abandoned Roadside Amusement Park in Jordan is small but colourful! It appears to have been abandoned for only a few years.

Landing Precision

Here is a photograph of a male house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus) just before he touches down on the top of a black metal shepherd's hook.

"The image shows a close-up of a male house finch. The bird has a distinctive red coloration on its head and chest, with brown and white streaks on its wings and body. The background is a blurred green, making the bird stand out prominently. The finch's conical beak is closed, and its toes and talons are visible, spread wide above a black metal object on which the bird is about to land on. The details capture the texture of the bird's feathers and the intensity of its gaze. The photograph is signed "© Swede's Photographs" in the bottom right corner." - Copilot with edits


Spent some time today finding Small Good Things. Can recommend, although I did get a little soggy.

A photo taken low down in my garden lawn. In the centre, the focus is on a single, delicate, water coated mushroom. The background is soft green, fading to dark near the top. Scattered around are blades of dark green grass with droplets of water on them. A small, simple, drawn figure sits underneath the mushroom, arm reached out to a blade of grass.


Quietly taking photos of mushrooms in the lawn & a noise behind me makes me realise one of our regular wee birdies has got fed up waiting for me to go & has started lunch. I could quietly wait out there with my camera trained on the feeder for ages & they will stay away. Apparently I'm less threatening when examining the grass.

#photography #bird
A photo of a small bird, possibly a coal tit, something like that anyway, flying to a bird feeder full of seeds. It's coming into land, beak open, wings blurred and flapping, looking like its going in for a ferocious attack. To be fair I'm sometimes like that with a late lunch too.


In pictures that speak loud and clear
The Ian Parry grant captures our fear
Fields aflame, a school in despair
Photojournalism, truth laid bare
Showing the world what we need to hear.

This time of year I only wander onto the lawn when I'm filling up the bird feeders, but every time I find a new wee friend.

A photo of a grassy lawn, taken from very low down, with most of the grass in soft focus. In the centre is a single very, very tiny mushroom. It is a light orange colour, with a tall thin pale stem. I have added a smiling face, and arms, so it is holding on to the blade of grass next to it.


A twee but heartfelt leafy hug to all who want it on a Monday morning in a week that might be A WEEK.

#sillyScribbles #photography #autumn #silly #cute #nonsense
A photo of two autumnal leaves, grown from a single stem, dappled in sunlight. The one on the left is in focus, the one on the right, slightly further away, is slightly blurred. In the background are more leaves, very blurred, with hints of sky beyond. The two leaves have faces drawn on, with cute wee smiles, and they each have one arm around the other.


Oops, forgot to post before midnight

This is a fire that I photographed from Buck Hill this morning, November 3rd 2024 just after 7am. I'm uncertain where the fire is located or what the source of it is, but considering the recent spike in wildfires in Massachusetts, I suspect this is also a wildfire. The building at the lower left is the former Norwood Hospital, which would put this on a bearing for the towns of Medfield MA and Medway MA, perhaps Noon Hill Reservation or Shattuck Reservation. So far I have not been able to find any corroborating source for a fire in those towns.

On the inter-tidal zone of the Durham Heritage Coast at Seaham in North East England, a clue bearing witness to the town's industrial heritage.
Not sure how long these old wagon wheels have been here, but it's a good few years since since I first happened upon them.
I'm by no means the only one who's thought they make a great photographic subject, but I don't know how much longer before the inevitable corrosion takes its toll.

Awaiting Development

Another pile of yesterday awaiting development on a bleak English industrial estate. The corrugated asbestos roof holds together the commercial time capsule, but for how much longer?

Behold the new gods.
Stories told of how they would rise from where the waters bubble, explode in rays of righteous anger, and create a mighty SPLASH.
And now.... now they are here.

#sillyScribbles #photography #water
A photo of a light projection on water over a loch. The foreground is calm water, then there is a section with loads of small water droplets, and beyond that two white starbursts of light projected on water spray. There are patches of faint colour across them, and faces have been drawn on, the one on the right, smaller and more distant, looking surprised. The one in the centre has an open mouth with teeth showing. If you looked at it in a certain way it might look scary.


Impressions from the Atacama Desert in Chile - such a diverse landscape with endless interesting features.

Just published a blog with many different locations from my trip this August:

Addressing climate change is too expensive, they said. “Spain’s apocalyptic floods show two undeniable truths: the climate crisis is getting worse and Big Oil is killing us”

Agreed. What shall we do stop this happening?

The Allegro Tunnel viewed from over the water & before walking through.

#Scotland #photography #EnchantedForest
A photo of the tunnel from across the loch. From this angle it looks like a set of rainbow coloured vertical stripes with lit up trees behind and water in front. The water reflects the lights.
Photo of the tunnel from over the water, but zoomed in quite tight. The vertical strips of colour are bright, but they have jagged black areas cut out - the leaves and branches from surrounding trees. You can see people walking through the tunnel, in the darkness between the stripes.
A photo of the tunnel entrance. The frame is black, and there is an angular archway of rainbow coloured stripes. At the bottom the black includes the silhouettes of some of the visitors heads and shoulders.
A photo of the tunnel from a few metres away. There is a group of people walking through, heads lit up reflecting the different colours lights from the angular archway. To the left and right you can see lit up trees in pink and blues.
