carrying oneself with purpose in brookline. i have been using a pentax 43mm limited prime on my sony lately and it is a delightful combination. the pentax's focus throw is a little twitchy for manual focusing but i can get where i need to be most of the time with zone focusing. overall the 43mm is fantastic and portable with image quality that punches well above its weight. put a weird lens on your camera! it's fun
‘La Serre’ in Langwarrin South is creative, fun and eclectic..

Colin Hyett’s amazing property features serpent-like paths, a natural ballroom, a chicken coop with a twist, a tepee-style cubby house … it has something for everyone..

This ‘Palm Springs meets Mornington Peninsula’ property with over 1.5 hectares of gravel gardens, succulents, indigenous plants and large sculptures is an exciting garden to visit..

The owner, Colin Hyett, has a background in Fine Arts. Unlike many landscape designers, his inspirations are derived from artists he loves, incorporating modern design – tradition is definitely not for him. All Colin’s gardens focus on modern designs using drought-tolerant, sustainable plants.
saw this at the Bold Hype gallery booth. Bold Hype is from Orlando, FL. as am I-nice to see Orlando representing.
WANNABE WARMER WEDNESDAY #7
Hard to believe that winter is half over already. It sure has been one to remember. Snowier than most and those incredible deep freeze days :( Looking at the calendar I can see we're going to close the month without any January thaw. That's always a nice respite during the short cold days of winter.
I'm still keeping comments closed because it's not fair when I can't allot time to visit each and every one of you. I feel so bad. I want you to know that even if I've not had time to spend visiting and commenting I do visit your streams on a regular basis. I find inspiration from you all.
Hugs and much love. Be safe ....
Bandi the Bold is a strong, fearless, and somewhat daring barbarian warrior. A near unstoppable force with his massive war hammer, he enjoys walloping packs of wild monsters and merrily feasting equally. For TOMB.
How bold, finding yourself into colossal bore?
An unnamed spotter challenged an inapt word?
It must be an ant, which never lived impulsively
How daring,
Someone dared correct Andrew Marvell's words?
We found ourselves into massive uncouth hoards…
Handheld using a Lensbaby lens. Close up shot. Really liked the bold colouring of the tulip. Basic adjustments in Lightroom.
My favorite species of Spider. I really love them, in a weird Steve Irwin kind of way.
Phidippus audax is a common jumping spider of North America. It is commonly referred to as the Bold Jumping Spider. The average size of adults ranges from roughly 1/2 to 3/4 inches in body length, though I have found several in Texas around the 1" mark. Yes, body length of 1". It's true, everything is bigger in Texas.
These spiders are typically black with a pattern of spots and stripes on their abdomen and legs. Often these spots are orange, yellow or red tinted in juveniles, turning white as the spider matures. I think they look like a smiley face.
The Bold Jumping Spider belongs to the genus Phidippus, a group of jumping spiders easily identified both by their relatively large size and their iridescent chelicerae. In the case of P. audax, these chelicerae are a bright, metallic green or blue. From the pic above, you know what chelicerae are now.
These spiders have been known to jump up to 50 times their own body length, and the male may jump away during mating if the female approaches too quickly.
Like other jumping spiders, due to their large, forward facing eyes, they have very good stereoscopic vision. This aides them when stalking prey, and allows some visual communication with others of their species, such as courting 'dances'.
While this guy may look very menacing, he's really only about 3/8 inch long. A curious little bugger too.

This is Bahati, the very bold and beautiful Leopard of the Rekero area. She is very friendly and unlike other Leopards is not afraid of humans and cars and is seen very often during the day up and about doing her stuff.

I took some time to snap some of the cool, old signs in-and-around San Jose, Ca. last summer. I like how big a part that theme and motif used to play in stores and restaurants.
Many of these spots were things my friend MattyD90 grew up with and others were pleasant surprises to us both.
Anyway, thanks for having a look!
When bold jumpers are juveniles, their abdomen spots are a bright orange. As they mature they will change to white. I found this cutie on a sandstone column above the spillway at the lake.

Bold Indeed
A pair of GP38-2s rest in the Anchorage Yard both adorned in the 1980s 'Alaska Bold' scheme. The Alaska Railroad's small fleet of 2000 hp geeps was acquired second hand in 1986 early in the state ownership era. ARR 2004 and 2005 were both rebuilt for straight GP38s originally built for the Penn Central as numbers 7773 and 7752 in Sep. and Aug. 1969 respectively and have spent far more of their lives in Alaska than on their original home rails of PC and Conrail.

Bold bright colors make this Leopard Lacewing a popular butterfly at the Cecil B Day Butterfly Center at Callaway Gardens. The butterfly center is close enough to visit a couple times a year.
To my great surprise the butterflies were very active this visit, and there were a few new species I hadn't seen before. So I was able to get lots of pictures and will be posting them over the next few days along with a few other pictures of Callaway.

Metra 5 runs on the south leads into Union Station to pick up a dead Metra 4 and drag it up to Western Ave. I ran into this guy on my way to catch a train home, which I missed in order to shoot this. Worth it? Probably.
`O Tiger-lily,' said Alice, addressing herself to one that was waving gracefully about in the wind, `I wish you could talk!'
`We can talk,' said the Tiger-lily: `when there's anybody worth talking to."
Alice was so astonished that she could not speak for a minute: it quite seemed to take her breath away. At length, as the Tiger-lily only went on waving about, she spoke again, in a timid voice -- almost in a whisper. `And can all the flowers talk?'
`As well as you can,' said the Tiger-lily. `And a great deal louder.'

I have no idea what these are. Fellow gardeners and pomologists, feel free to help identify these. They're edible apparently! It's some variation of Strawberry tree but I hear they're not exactly delicious.
They were growing on a tree near the Burke-Gilman trail on campus.

I opened the umbrella above the picnic table and this little guy dropped down. It's one of my favorite local spiders, a bold jumping spider (Phidippus audax). He wouldn't show me his bright green chilicerae, but you can kind of see a little bit of color if you look carefully.
