DIY homemade dried lemon and lime slices. Image measures 6cm in width. After deliberating all morning as to which photo to post, I finally settled on these cirtus slices I had spent most of Saturday dehydrating in the oven. I hope it was worth it 😊 HMM
Eastern prickly pear Cascading in the rocks next to the waterfall,
It amazing how these survive our winter,
They are completely flat from dehydration, come spring they come to life like magic,
A January ritual for me to dry fruit slices for this and that.

On the rails threading straight across one of earth's greatest lunar landscapes--the sodium-rich dehydrated lakebed forming the Searles Valley--three ravished, tattered, 645ed EMDs, speed lettering chiseling through faded cinder block carbodies, head up a long string of empty 5 bays just getting underway on their evening trip back toward interchange with Union Pacific for another round of generating coal, beating the disappearance of the setting sun by mere moments though unfortunately still too late for the more preferable and fruitful photographic results that are possible here. The Trona Railway operates out of Trona, CA (visible in the distant background), hauling Trona-related products (i.e. soda ash and other assorted goodies) and other materials related to said production, an operation wholly owned by the mining company Searles Valley Minerals and a vital link to the only bit of worthful economic activity in this otherwise barren wasteland.
He - So I am ignored just so that she can have a sip of water.
She - And we both have to be dehydrated because he wants to chat. He doesn't know yet we'll be having babies soon.
I actually don't know which bird is the father but just assumed that the bigger one is the male. Will appreciate being corrected if I am wrong.
A little more flat lay.... Dried my oranges using my Ninja Dehydrator... Great for decorations and photography.
Still not sure if I'm getting the hang of this 'flat lay' but I'm having lots of creative fun trying...
Have a fabulous Thursday...

A two shot collage of our food dehydrator showing the cherries and nectarines part way through the drying process.
High temperatures, dehydrated leaves….a typical Namibian summer.

Have a great day, everyone!
Cette superbe plante à fleurs rose carmin est dite héliophile (qui affectionne la lumière) des prairies humides. Elle se développe généralement aux étages collinéens et montagnards sur des sols pauvres en nutriments et riches en matière organique. Elle supporte particulièrement bien les variations d’humidité du substrat, sur lequel, elle se développe. En effet, son bulbe porte une tunique fibreuse qui le protège de la déshydratation et de l’inondation prolongée. Grâce à cet organe vivace qui assure par ailleurs la pérennité́ des plantes durant la mauvaise saison, le glaïeul des marais est adapté́ à de fortes variations de niveau piézométrique. Il supporte ainsi des sécheresses, mais aussi des inondations prolongées.

This superb carmine-pink flowering plant is said to be heliophilous (which likes light) from wet meadows. It generally develops on hill and mountain levels on soils poor in nutrients and rich in organic matter. It supports particularly well the variations of humidity of the substrate, on which it grows. Indeed, its bulb wears a fibrous tunic which protects it from dehydration and prolonged flooding. Thanks to this perennial organ which also ensures the sustainability of plants during the bad season, the marsh gladiolus is adapted to strong variations in piezometric level. It thus supports droughts, but also prolonged floods.

I placed a pot of purple tulips on the windowsill so they could be in the sun, and forgot that the heat from below would rise and dehydrate them. Sorry, tulips, your life was shortened, but you're still beautiful. -- February 25, 2021
I recently referred to a mushroom as frozen when it was actually dehydrated. There's a bunch of older mushrooms and they loose moisture as they age. Next came a week of clear and dry air with night temps in the 30s. Those nights helped to dehydrate and cause desiccation of the mushrooms. Next has been a week of night temps in the 20s. All of the desiccated mushrooms look like this ~ Gray. I've read that they might last some time like this. It's the young Mycenia with thin cell walls and a lot of moisture the melt away when they freeze.
Taken from the main nature trail through the South Texas Botanical Gardens, this is the start of a boardwalk crossing what should be the wetlands on the banks of Oso Creek, which eventually drains into the Laguna Madre in Corpus Christi. It has been so dry here that the creek has mostly dried up at this location. Instead, now we have a small series of isolated (and evaporating) lakes that are failing to provide fresh water to the lagoon.
Father and Son, Coconut merchants on Boca Chica beach
selling coconuts
to tourists.
dehydrated and miserable
they will never be tourists
they will never lay back on a chaise lounge
and have a clean beautiful hotel room
they will never fly away
they will never drive home
they will never know whats its like
to have a fistful of money in their pocket
they return to a dark dismal dusty dingy hut.
they will sleep in 90 degree heat
they will sleep on the same filthy mattress with others
they will eat rice and beans and maybe a piece of fish
they will feel and totally understand that they are poor
and that is their lot in life
and nothing they do can change things
NOTHING!
they know they will be there tomorrow
as sure as the sun
creeps up again over the horizon.
they know that unless they walk this beach every day they will suffer from hunger
as the tourists stand around and watch the sun go down,
the father and son walk hurriedly off the beach.
they are glad the sun goes down
it is no longer their beach.
they might also get robbed. these days. in the DR.
its is a hard life filled with struggle and pain and have to's in order to survive.
the sun is their enemy.
this is war
this is life
this is a battle
against the elements
they hate the sun!
and
many Dominicans are afraid of the sea!
Photography’s new conscience
One teaspoon (5ml) of freeze-dried red onions.
I don't have much to write about the product as I usually do, but I'll note I found it on prominent display at a market and had to try it. After I was done with the shoot and in keeping with Flickr Rule #1, I added the teaspoonful to some marinara sauce that went on pasta for tonight's dinner, with flavorful results.
A rapidly dehydrated desert left behind these wonderful patterns of cracked mud.
This image took quite a bit of forethought to put together. It’s a blend of two focus points and three focal lengths with a lot of light contouring, atmospherics enhancement, and needed several things like punching things up with selective color, color dodging, texture increases and decreases, some slight warping for perspective, etc, etc.
If you’re interested in learning how I created this puzzle in the field and then pieced it together in post, you can head to www.ryandyar.com/start-to-finish-3 to see it all on video!
Thank you for checking out this little image of mine. You’re an awesome human.
tempertures rose to about 95. my friends know me. i am very impatient. i just want the finished product to magically appear. with that and the heat i almost gave up. i still needed about another half hr on this but i couldn't hak it. this was a good day all in all.
thanx huge for hookin up the characters. i always wanted to rock a betty boop next to my piece and magically once again KEO* just happened to have a reference.
thanx askew for the photo...its 204am and its currently 80 degrees n feels like 83... weather channel...lol
Just add rain...
Was working at the Maydena Bike Park last weekend. Maydena is up the road from Russell Falls and the Mount Field National Park and I called in on the way past. Was hoping for the shot I missed last time I was here - sort of got the shot but missing the water...
It was a good exercise nonetheless, had the waterfall and her spirits to myself for a while :-)

A very big 'Thank You' to everyone that views, faves and comments on my work! It's really appreciated :-)

I liked the abstract look of these apple chips underneath another empty tray after I removed them from the dehydrator.
