We were up in the Houston area for a wedding shower and decided to check out the famed bolivar peninsula. We got up early and headed out to high island. This sunrise backlit shot of a great egret was one of the first shots I took after setting up.
We are experiencing a particularly hot summer this year. No wonder this Elkhorn Fern's outer fronds are dried and discolored.
Elkhorn ferns (also called Staghorn ferns) are ‘epiphyte’, meaning that they grow on tree branches and trunks naturally. They can grow fairly large, although they require at least 10 years to achieve their maximum size.
These plants make two types of fronds. The shield, or sterile fronds, wrap around the tree or rock on which the plant is growing. These shields usually form a basket which collects debris, providing a medium for root growth, and aiding in moisture collection and retention. The fertile, or normal fronds, grow out from the bud, and the spores are borne on these. Some species make fertile fronds much like the antler of a deer. Others are nearly round, or wedge shaped.
When you see how fragile and delicate life can be, all else fades into the background.

Like many other churches in the area, the colonial church of Chinchero was built on ancient Inca ruins like many churches

Mein nagelneues E-Bike steht in der Garage und wartet auf den Frühling. Dann radle ich auch mit!
It feels like forever since I've been on Flickr and have missed all of you. I feel like I am finally on the road to recovery. It will take some time for me to get back to commenting on everyone's images - so you may just get faves for a bit. So happy to be back!

Designed and built in 1929. The ballroom was a major venue for bands of the 1930s and 1940s. Built in an Art Deco styling with an Aztec theme. At 5600 sq feet, it was meant to hold around a 1000 couples. The maple dance floor was built on springs to give the dancers a bounce as they moved.
After closing around 1958, it reopened in the mid 60s as a concert venue. With shows a couple times a week, bands such as the MC5; The Stooges; and Ted Nugent and The Amboy Dukes played here. Soon the doors closed again.
Also more recently featured in a the Eminem movie, "8 Mile".
It now sits empty, neglected and dilapidated like many other historic locations in Detroit.
Like silk, so soft, transparent, this flower seems Magic
It amazes my Soul
Comme de la soie, si douce, transparente, cette fleur semble Magique
Pour vous

We came upon a large Lion pride with many young cubs early in the morning. As their parents lay asleep these youngsters were playing around just like any kittens would. It was one of the best sightings we had on our Masai Mara trip.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated...
Happy Caturday

I like landscape and macro photography and like to drive long distance to find a better scene. HDR, long exposure and portrait are my favorite.

You´re staring at the ceiling
Let me hear you breathing
Ah-ah
I-I-I-ah-I

Ah-ah-ah-I
Wanna see you smile
