A Barnacle Day Out

This shot cried out for a mono treatment. A family of Barnacle Geese enjoying a fairly monotone afternoon at Frampton lake. Worth a look in Large for the back textures, although I could have gone for f/11 to get the rear bird sharp...

I woke up with wax-blocked ears, and have had a roaring earache all day. Not blessed with the best hearing at the best of times, today it's been quieter than normal.

Watching the news and the ever growing surge to the political right; now it looks like Macron may have done his equivalent of a Brexit vote. And in the US it appears the Supreme Court is now in fact supreme. 

Interesting times indeed.
