I went outside after an unusually heavy afternoon rain in Fort Myers, Florida, and saw this. It was like a promise that the rain would always pass letting the light return!
We had a bad wind and rain storm. After the storm the sky was filled with many different colors. The blue sky is starting to peak out from clouds.

After every storm there's a morning after and it seems that it's usually a sunny calm day as it is here on this day...
All life, as if an endless moment...
Seasons change after season.
This whole wonderful world was in white,
Then suddenly it becomes green again...
Where is the line, the one beyond which this life is?
Where is sensuality, and where is rationality?
Where is what we call MIRAGES,
And where is the inexorable reality?
And the world - it is as if woven from problems,
The mysteries in it are sometimes inexplicable,
But we live in it for some reason, why?
Everything in this world is so inexplicable...
We want it to be simple, why?
To understand everything that we do not understand?
So that no one understands
Everything that we feel and everything that we know?
What are we striving for, what do we want to understand?
First we create, and then we destroy again,
We are so used to losing so much,
That our souls become hardened from losses.
We are used to life, and it is only a moment!
I just started living, and life is already coming to an end,
And this world remains a fairy tale
A mystery, once unsolved...
During a recent visit to Brazoria National Wildlife Refuge I spotted this Great Blue Heron trying to eat a snake. The snake put up a good fight but after several minutes and some time wrapped around the heron’s beak it finally submitted. What a show! I would have liked to get a little closer but was afraid I would make the heron lose its meal.

Year-old UP 8950 looked pretty sharp in the snow as it idled the night away after the almost-blizzard dumped three feet of snow on the Lurgan Branch. The crew of NS 12R tied their train down at nearby Shippensburg Airport but a crew van would not have made it back the snow covered lane to pick them up. It appears the smart crew cut their leader away from the train and rolled it up to the next crossing to meet the van, tying it down in the perfect spot for some nighttime photos.

This macro was my only attempt at photography during our 76 hours without electricity after the derecho passed through on Saturday afternoon. To me, the droplet on the Hosta looks a little like a lizard either engorging or disgorging something.

I recently visited the Southward Motor Museum near Wellington and very handily, I just happened to have the big Pentax on board so decided to see what different shots I could get from my previous visits here.

We had a record 7 inches of rain in the last two days in Denton, Texas. That is after a 24 days of drought. We go from one extreme to the other.

Crop stubble is the straw and crown of plants left on the soil surface after harvest. Stubble also includes straw and chaff discharged from the harvester (header). It is also known as ‘residue’ or ‘trash’.
Stubble management is one of many complex issues that farmers must contend with. Traditionally, grain growers have burnt stubble to manage weeds, diseases and reduce biomass to make sowing easier. This is no longer the preferred option. Numerous other methods can be used to manage stubble.
