Free Nik software bonus

I'd been toying with the idea of purchasing the Nik suite of Lightroom plug-ins, largely because I had continued to see praise heaped on it from the black and white photography community.  I was more than happy to find out recently that google had released it all free to download!

Bonus.

Here are a few that I have processed over the last few days.

Yorkshire

Scotland

Norfolk

Gannet

Hare

Weekly highlights 13 March

Signs of spring!  Ringed Plover returns to the patch while a Stonechat passes through...

Oystercatcher and Hare from the weekend.

Hare, eventually

Went out on Saturday.  Came across a field with some Hares in it.  Got camera out.  Realised that I took the wrong battery out earlier in the day.  Didn't take any photos.  Swore a bit.

Went out on Sunday.  Came across a familiar field with some Hares in it.  Got camera out.  Took some photos.  Didn't swear.

There, I managed to post a whole post about Hares without quoting Michael Elphick.  Although it was very difficult.

Here hare here, and other photos from last week...

Unusually for me I took a photo of something furry, rather than feathery.  This Hare was in a field near Langham.

The week began where last week left off, with Little Owls.  The family that I am visiting has three young, this one is sheltering from the rain and not looking to pleased with it all.

During the week there was a rare bird in Great Yarmouth.  Here is a picture taken with a telephone of some people having a Great time knot seeing the rare bird.

An obliging Linnet that sat on a wall.

An obliging Wren that sat on a stick.

Little Owl adult showing nicely in the evening sun...

...and the Wren again for good measure.  This particular bird will feature in future posts.
