It starts terribly dark and it stays quite dim, but the light available does get eke a way in. There’s a wee trickle of goodly bird noise and my voice hopefully discreetly deploys a sound stratagem whisper friendly poised so that the extremely fine feathered now gathered wild wonders within their reed, sedge and slightly muddy safe splendid slumbers and my wondrous hide joining and together enjoying bonded pleasance continue heedless of my film embracing photographic personal presence © PHH Sykes 2024 and 2025 phhsykes@gmail.com RSPB Scotland Loch Leven nature reserve www.rspb.org.uk/days-out/reserves/loch-leven" rel="noreferrer nofollow www.rspb.org.uk/days-out/reserves/loch-leven

A Secret Source to improve the Light Source. The camera settings record a brighter scene than that which is seen by the human eye and I can be heard saying the above, “A Secret Source to improve the Light Source,” at the end of the film. Pixel power searches into the dark to treasure receive the waiting wonders so as to best record them for later and for further enjoyment. Almost nothing to see here and what is to be seen is scene generated by A Secret Source to improve the Light Source with a wider eye to take in what is flying by and an electronic ear saving the wings on air and on water with hidden honk and silhouetted cry and a more sensitive sensor for experiencing the loch the shore listening in without reply and everything and all together under the intense colours of the sky. The whole experience is the whole experience, with wonky horizons and shaky movements. I am now an ambassador of the wonky as I am at the permanent potential to go to the wonk and to glory in the results as age and injury grip me tighter and longer than loved ones ever have. The bad filming here is intentional for this to be a true record of the experience that still stirs me as I look back on it like a slice of repeatable immersive Electro Shamanism. The end of the day is a fabulous break down. Everything of light that has been completed and the gentle encroach of night offers some respite before the glorious wonders woken before dawn all start again into the more active hours of the day. Please be gentle on my classification of, “repeatable immersive Electro Shamanism,” that is what I am experiencing on looking back into the fantastic after glow and fabulous sound garden of twilight.
