Keith Burton's photos

Taken in Portsmouth along one of the main road into and out of the city. Please view large and check out the PiP for a close up of one of the eyes. The artist is My Dog Sighs.

Spotted on The Hard, in Portsmouth, Hampshire. A first glance the "rope work" could be real, but in fact it is some very nicely done metalwork painted to look like knotted blue rope. I thought about adding it to Xata's group, but decided not to push my luck :-))) A close up look of one of the "ropes" in the PiP.

Another track through Stansted Forest in Hampshire. Please view large, on black. Thank you.

Taken on Budleigh Salterton beach in Devon. Best viewed large. This also the new desktop picture on my laptop screen :-)

Taken from my garden and photographed indoors.

A message from the" Department for Stating the Bloody Obvious". Spotted in Stansted Forest, Hampshire on a walk last month. Have a good weekend everyone.

Taken in my garden. I would love to know what type of bee this is. I've been searching for ages without success, so if anyone knows please tell me..!! Better viewed large..........thank you.

Taken on the Mill Pond at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. There is a shot of the chicks on their own in the PiP. Thanks for looking.

Taken indoors in natural light and using a white card as background. On the computer I changed the white background to give it a "cool" blue look. I also added a white border, which you'll notice if you view large, which I recommend. All these items have been picked up over the years mainly in charity shops etc., purely for the purpose of photographing them. Now that has been done, they'll go back to a charity shop for someone else to use. Hope you like it.........and thanks for looking :-)

Taken in my garden. I was surprised to see it as I always associate these with water, and the only water I have in my garden is a couple of bird baths! I used my 40-150mm zoom lens to get this shot and then cropped it, as I couldn't get near enough to the damselfly with my 60mm macro. Better viewed large. Thanks for looking.

Captured at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. Please view large...........this photo was taken at the very limit of my lens and thus is quite a big crop. Thanks for looking.

I thought I'd post an extra photo today. This my wife Jackie, hard at work this afternoon in our back garden "jungle". Several of you have commented about the nice flowers in our garden........... this is the reason why! I was helping by taking photos and generally keeping out of the way :-)))

Taken at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. There was quite a large group of these looking for food amongst the pebbles. Better viewed large.........thanks for looking.

Taken in my garden.

Another bit of artwork by My Dog Sighs in Southsea, Hampshire. This one has been done before..........I spotted it a couple of years ago..........but it got ruined and he repainted it (almost the same) in a different location. See the link to discover how it got ruined: www.ipernity.com/doc/keithburton/50590700/in/album/1344484 Have a good Friday everyone...........

I was sitting on a bench adjacent to the Mill Pond at Langstone Harbour, camera in hand, watching the world go by, when I noticed some children pointing upwards the sky above my head. Looking up I saw this Grey Heron and just had time to swing the camera upwards and back to grab this shot. I was quite pleased with it given the circumstances.

Well, they were in the lawn until we cut the grass recently, and yes, including the forget-me-nots which are currently trying to take over my garden! Have a lovely day folks.

Another piece of colourful street art from Southsea, Hampshire. I had to stand in the middle of a busy road to get this photo, so it was taken very quickly :-))). The artist who created this one is called FARK. There's another one of his in the PiP. Please view large, on black. Thank you.
