Buzzard (Buteo buteo) looking for lunch. One of three taking advantage of thermals over our house to lift them high over the forest, softly calling to each other as they went.

A flock of forty-eight cranes heading north today, issuing instructions to each other with their bugle-like honking. They must have spotted Arezzo in the distance since they sudden;y turned sharp east and flew straight over our valley – a rare treat. If these guys are heading north, spring must be on the way – rather early!

… and hail, and a powerful thunderstorm this afternoon, the Val Cerfone shows off its winter beauty.

Welcome to the revamped dgcPhoto site, complete with a new theme and a new look.
I’ve been rather busy with other things for a while, so I thought a makeover was more than overdue. I hope you like it.
In many ways, the site is the same as before except that with the new theme it’s easier to navigate and more efficient to load. And the layout is far cleaner.
I’m currently using two cameras: the truly excellent Canon 90D I bought several months ago that is streets ahead of any other camera I’ve owned over the years, and a Canon 100D that I’ve had for a couple of years — a really lightweight little workhorse. I am also using my iPhone SE far more than I expected. The latest OS makes it an incredibly versatile camera.
Keep checking out the galleries; the old ones have been reinstalled and new ones are being added.
What were the ‘other things’?
Check out ‘My Novels’ here or in the menu above where a couple of clicks will take you to the world of ClarkeFiction and details of my seven edge-of-the-seat thriller novels and my wife Gail’s wonderful fully illustrated children’s books.
