Nominations for the March Image of the Month (IotM) close at the end of the day on Sunday, March 31. Get your four nominations in!
These are lovely... I can just smell the sweet Wet earth... I’d love to see a photo with your setup too!During a couple of days of rain I felt an urge to be outside. I put on my rainsuit but what about my iPhone. I know it’s water resistant but getting the lens wet is hard to dry off when you’re out in the rain. So, an umbrella was found. Then, you usually use 2 hands to take pictures with an iPhone and one was busy holding the umbrella. For many years I have had a bracket for my tripod to attach an umbrella so I could photograph keeping my camera dry and without having to hold the umbrella. So I got out a clip-on bracket with a cell phone attachment and fastened it to my umbrella. I wish I had a picture of me out in the rain enjoying making photos in my rainsuit and under the umbrella.

I wandered around the woods behind my house and through little meadow areas.

Here are some Sensitive Ferns invading a grassy area.
Later, when the rain lessened I got out my tripod and was experimenting with various camera apps without moving my tripod. The problem is that many apps don’t identify the app in metadata so you can’t remember which app was used for a particular photo. Grrr.

Rather than a tripod which is awkward to set up on the trail and still leave room for people to pass I used a short bar clamp I can fasten to the wooden handrail of the footbridge. It added a fitting for a regular tripod head.
One of my favorite flowers...Lily-of-the-Valley

Another 20 image focus stack photographed in CameraPixels and combined in Affinity. From a couple of days before the rain. Now they all look rather bedraggled.

Cheeky devil, what?He looks like he’s got his cheeks full of something!
Yes.Cheeky devil, what?
Many years ago I was photographing a chipmunk at a campground using peanuts in the shell as bait. Would you believe it put 3 complete peanuts in the shell in its mouth at once.
Looks similar to shrimp?Amphipod, Scud, or side-swimmer.

Summer brings a parade of marine creatures to the beach. These tiny amphipods are just under 2cm in length and usually hide under seaweed when the tide goes out to stay wet. This one was scurrying about in the wet sand.
I guess sort of similar, but smaller.Looks similar to shrimp?
Beautiful!Inch Arran Lighthouse at Sunset, from my kayak.

The only way to get the Inch Arran Lighthouse at Sunset is to be out on the water. I had been watching for a good sunset but the days ended with overcast, until today. Once I saw conditions were looking good I quickly launched my kayak and paddled out to a good location. The current of the falling tide kept me drifting out of position. Inch Arran is a point extending into le Baie des Chaleurs at Dalhousie, New Brunswick, Canada. This is the northern-most coast of the province. In fact, just across the water on the right is part of the province of Quebec. The mountains in the distance are part of the Appalachian chain. Travelling to the right on the far shore leads to the Gaspé Penninsula.

Sitting so low in the kayak means the reflections on the water come right up to you rather than ending before they get to you as they do at a higher angle.Holy wow this is INCREDIBLE. I can’t even imagine how magical being on the water during this must have been.
Yes, it’s beautiful in color. Hopefully there are lots and lots of bees happily buzzing?I posted a B&W version of this pictures in the B&W challenge but when I compared this picture in B&W & colour the colour was so much nicer that I felt the need to post it somewhere, so why not here.

Amazing detail on those feathers. Is this with your new phone Brian, because you’re still showing iPhone 7 Plus as your device. Either way, the editing is superb.Iridescent green Hummingbird feathers close-up.

This Hummingbird was unfortunately dead, I think from hitting a window.
