Close up of the bark on a palm tree in our garden. Surprising colours and textures when you look closely!
A sandy area near the Laguna Madre, with some patterns carved after a storm had dumped a substantial amount of water on it. This is near sunset, and I was struck by the resemblance to an areal view of a desert.
I've been bouncing around of late in regard to my photographic interests. Birds, sunsets, macro, landscapes, and more. Truth be told, I am in a bit of a creative lull at the moment. Decided to do some macro work today, and here is a bee buzzing around a clover flower. Not sure what that thing is on its leg, although my wife said it is honey? Best viewed (L) for full detail.
Thanks for all the faves, comments, and views. Much appreciated~!
My final image from my time in the woods on Sunday. This was the image I initially had in mind, and was in fact the last shot that I took. It took what felt like ages to find this composition then another age to wait for the sun to come out from behind the clouds I had the image I wanted!

52 Weeks: 2024 Edition: Week 18: Patterns
no this is not the complete Maximilian von Montegla, nor it's himself, This is just a very small part of his colossal statue standing at the Promenadenplatz in Munich. This is the only piece of art, there are at least five of them. The most curios one, the di-Lasso-statue dar, or as it called in Munich the Michael Jackson statue. Still today there are fresh flowers, pictures and small gifts from his fans. Just because Michael used to stay at the Bayerischer Hof.
The funny part of the picture, we went there with some friends to photograph the lights of the Promenadenplatz, and try something new. For example manual mode, tripod always the same position, just change the white balance. I looked at the pictures, the light very different on each picture. Just did not get it. But the answer from our guide Chris was simple. The lights were on automatic timers, going dark to bright within a short time. But not all of them at the same time, this would be to easy. But this is another story.
The real story, we are packing up, because we want to get some Glühwein, mulled wine, since it's close to christmas evening. So standing there, ready stow away camera, tripod and other stuff, the last couple of pictures, yes guessed rigth Maximillian
