Blue False Indigo (Baptisia australis) is a wild flower that has been cultivated as a source of a blue-colored dye that is reminiscent of indigo dye.
It looks like a hardy version of sweet pea. This dense bush-like mass was about 3 feet (approx. 1 meter) in height and width, growing in a city alleyway. (The prettiest thing in the alley ).
False Creek near downtown Vancouver is not a creek but rather an inlet leading out to English Bay and eventually the Pacific Ocean. The location is prime real-estate lined with beautiful condos and private docks full of boats.
While walking along the banks of False Creek I came across a boat that had run aground and partially capsized on some rocks. It was an interesting sight to see with the mast sticking far out of the water and half the hull still visible. I thought it’d make an interesting subject to photograph against the scenic backdrop so I decided to return at sunset for some better lighting. Upon returning much to my dismay the tide had risen quite a bit and the hull was full submerged. Alas, visibly grounded boat at sunset wasn’t meant to be so mostly sunken boat at sunset would have to do :)

Funny how a picture can lie. Looks like I've taken this picture from some remote area, when in fact I'm in the middle of a very populated part of Washington State. Just happen to be from this spot, and the right amount of zoom on my lens, no buildings or signs of people are visible.
This is Mount Rainier, and was taken when traffic on WA-167 in Pacific, Washington stopped (it's does that a lot). Looking at my map I'd say the distance is about 40 miles "as the crow flys". (If a crow ever flew in a straight line, what a strange saying when you think about it.) Went from Pacific to Bellingham WA and now on my way to Denver. Hopefully I'll have a few photo ops on the way.
I believe that this is a False Potato Beetle. I was out doing macro photography yesterday and when I came home this beauty was on my front door. It was like it was waiting for me. I moved it to my garden and got some photos before it disappeared. Photographed in Maryland..
The false deathcap (Amanita citrina) is distinguished from the true deathcap by its bulbous base and smell of raw potatoes. It is an edible species, though not nearly tasty enough to warrant the worry of mistaking it for its notorious cousin. Be very, very sure of your identification skills if you plan to eat it!
Resting late evening in a gloomy hillside clearing after a day of rain in the Parque Natural de Cebollera in Northern Spain (4979).
I have never seen the lake freeze completely over in one night, but record cold temps of -4F/-20C last night did the job. There was no ice at all when I went to bed. I don't expect it to last, however, as a bright sun even now looks to be working on it and the forecast actually calls for a few days in the 40sF/4-5C ahead...as mentioned previously, a range we have yet to see at all this year.

This sunset was photographed from Mountainside, Gordon's Bay looking across False Bay towards Table mountain, Cape Town, South Africa.
Often a sky like this predicts rain but yesterday we had top temperature in the country which is not easy when we are closer to the South Pole than almost all other cities. Our friend eats breakfast with this view every day but is moving soon to another part of the city. She wanted me to get a sunrise picture and me wanting to help a lady finally got myself there on a day with a sunrise :)
