Muizenberg ist ein entspannter Badeort in der False Bay. Urlauber finden hier den vielleicht schönsten Badestrand in der Umgebung von Kapstadt. Das Wasser ist hier wärmer als am Atlantik vor der Metropole, was zum Schwimmen im Meer einlädt. Die bunten, viktorianischen Badehäuschen am Strand bilden eine malerische Kulisse und sind ein beliebtes Fotomotiv.
Muizenberg is a relaxed seaside resort in False Bay. Holidaymakers will find perhaps the most beautiful beach in the Cape Town area here. The water here is warmer than on the Atlantic Ocean in front of the metropolis, which invites you to swim in the sea. The colorful Victorian bathing huts on the beach form a picturesque backdrop and are a popular photo motif.
The name false morel is given to several species of mushroom which bear a resemblance to the highly regarded true morels of the genus Morchella. Like Morchella, false morels are members of the Pezizales, but within that group represent several unrelated taxa scattered through the families Morchellaceae, Discinaceae, and Helvellaceae, with the epithet "false morel" most often ascribed to members of the genus Gyromitra.
I revisited Columbia River Gorge, Oregon this May on my trip to Palouse. This shot is taken at Gorton Creek. It seems water level is very low due to the heavy drought of this year so it was making the condition not so desired to shoot. Yet I surprisingly found this yellow maple leaf in the lush green season. A false signal saved my day. : )
Thanks for stopping by!

Celestron Edge HD11 scope & ASI174MM camera. White light false colour.
The primroses and cowslips in the garden hybridised some years ago to produce these flowers known as False Oxlips
Obedient Plants are so named because the individual flowers, when they are moved in a new direction, will temporarily stay in that position. Interesting to think about how and why that characteristic evolved...yes? It's Friday, my friends, have a wonderful weekend!
I may be wrong but I think these are False Truffles, I keep finding little holes in the ground up the wood, when I investigated them I found these about 2cm deep, some half eaten, what would eat this? possibly squirrel?
Pacifica Pier, Apr 2011
After three tries I think I got the perspective right. I've found it difficult to center the tripod and get the overhead part of the pier to converge correctly in the frame. If you've been to this location you know how tricky it is to get a shot. Even at low tide you will get a wave or two smashing into you during the large set, and low tide is the ONLY time to stand here if you know what I mean :).
This shot took an inordinate amount of tweaking in post to enhance the dramatic feel. The straight lines of the pier and the horizon are a nightmare to mask around without getting a lot of fringing.
All comments, critiques and feedback both positive and negative welcome.

It's amazing how much these spread in a season. Nice to have, attractive to pollinators, but I think we'll have to set some limits...
Is it a beetle? Yes it is.
Is it a potato beetle? Yes.
Does it look like a potato beetle? Yes
The similar Colorado Potato Beetle is found throughout the USA, but this one, the "False Potato Beetle" is found only in Eastern USA. Eastern Potato Beetle would seem a more logical name...oh well.

I was really thirsty, too.
This is #17 of a series of photos all taken on one day and included in the album below.
The NW summit of Waddington has a false summit as well as a true summit. The false summit sits just to the south of the NW summit at the head of Angel Glacier, across a small saddle. In this photo from the true summit of Wadd an American climber is traversing from the NW summit over the saddle to the false summit.
