Random Photo Thread (not Bikes)

Ouch!

 

Now, if sir will kindly assume the position

 

Just had a week on Mull, fantastic weather and very wildlife rich. Single track roads not so great!

White tailed sea eagle



No need to tell you what these are...





Calgary Bay, fighting the crowds to the beach. Sea was cold, I understand. Fancy that!

 

Cheers, my son's pics are a notch or three up but average about 20Mb in size. There were around 40 dolphins in that pod and I think they were showing off a bit really.


Even Ben More was cloud free, never got to climb it, maybe next time...

 

That eagle photo is awesome @Smilinjack
Should be blown up and put on living room wall

 

Went to a local steam and vintage vehicle show. Had a fantastic day wandering around looking at steam engines, cars, motorbikes, military stuff, old buses and lorries to name just a few of the exhibits.
I thought the paint job on these trucks were amazing.

 

So that's why there's a driver shortage, too busy getting their trucks pimped up.

 

Were those trucks painted or wrapped? Would be a bit distracting out on the road I would have thought...

 

Wow, @Smilinjack, absolutely fantastic photos! Looks like a great week.

 

These flowers were blooming about three feet from where Mr. Sandi and I were enjoying a post-bicycle ride cup of coffee. With all the rain we've had in the desert over the past couple of months, the plants are very happy!

 

And as we were enjoying our coffee, we also met this fellow with his wolf and his friend's Golden. The wolf's name is Sinook and we learned that he's 94% wolf most of which is Arctic Wolf and Grey Wolf. We met Sinook some months back when he was much more shy. You can't quite tell from the photos but Sinook is huge!

 

When we were in Canada we went to a wolf sanctuary and they used to walk their wolves around local trails and said they were incredibly well behaved.
We got to make the wolves howl by howling to them. The sound was incredible and went right through your chest.

 

That's so cool, Dawsy! When we asked Sinook's owner if he barks, he told us that he only howls. But he has a variety of types of howls depending on the situation.

 

I spoke to the owner who said that they had all been working trucks. Only one is still working with the others now retired. And yes they are all painted. I get what you are saying about being a distraction

What does he do on a Thursday if it’s raining and the mail man is late?

 

We had another big storm last night and once again it produced a beautiful rainbow. And until I pulled this photo up on my computer to post it here, I didn't even notice that it's a double rainbow! This has been a monsoon season filled with rain, rainbows, and butterflies!

 

A few of mine taken with my flying camera (drone!)


I also like to take pictures of local churches, not because I’m particularly religious, but because they are fascinating buildings with a rich history. The round tower churches are Anglo-Saxon so probably date back almost a thousand years. The square tower churches are Norman, so post 1066.

 

Feel a bit interior after Neal H's pics
Had a cycle around local area to stock up on meat for family visit and took some snaps. A beautiful day.
The Dock Museum has many exhibits related to the shipyard obviously. This was made in my old workshop by guys I used to work with. All long retired now.


One of the old dry docks.

A lovely sunny Walney Channel

 

In Welsh - wouldn’t Chaff be pronounced Chav?

I think a Chav launcher is a stroke of genius. How far would it fire the b@st@rds?
