It was the middle of the afternoon and rest time for some of the animals on the Kilimanjaro Safari ride at Disney's Animal Kingdom. I photographed this high ISO shot of the Rhino from a moving vehicle in deep shade.
Several years ago I wandered through one of our local cemeteries. I came upon this small chapel among the graves and headstones.
I thought it made a respectful and lovely image.
I've used several effects to arrive at this serene rendering. May all who are in this scene rest in peace.
This is a fish farm just across the road where my house is, in Argao. Taken last month on my trip to the Philippines.

The sky was so clear….
It was interesting to see how architecture could blend with nature this way as I witnessed the sun setting slowly behind the busy Ting Kau Bridge in West Kowloon, Hong Kong

We stopped there to get some water and I took this from the car so the guy didn't notice me...or may be he is really good at pretending.

Our Daily Challenge ... resting.
Since childhood, I have referred to flowers which have closed up for the night, as being "asleep", so I thought it might be a good subject for this challenge. Some research on the internet reveals that they aren't really sleeping ... but in a way, they are resting in that they are conserving energy for daytime activities such as reproduction.
Plants that tuck themselves in for bedtime exhibit a natural behaviour known as nyctinasty. Scientists know the mechanism behind the phenomenon: In cool air and darkness, the bottom-most petals of certain flowers grow at a faster rate than the uppermost petals, forcing the flowers shut. But scientists are not quite sure why some plants, particularly flowers, evolved this way. There are several theories, though.
Charles Darwin believed that plants close up at night to reduce their risk of freezing. Another theory suggests that nyctinastic plants are conserving energy — and perhaps their odour — for the daytime when pollinating insects are most active.
Some scientists believe that this behaviour prevents pollen from becoming wet and heavy with dew. Insects can more easily transfer dry pollen, improving a nyctinastic plant's likelihood of successful reproduction.
After being "man handled" by the 4 little girls the turtle eventually makes it to the edge of the creek and then just sits there resting. The girls drifted downstream where they could be heard screaming and hollering and I wandered away. When I came back later he had gotten away! Clever Turtle!
Best guess is that this is a male Andrena sp. I found it resting in the morning in a desert chicory flower (Rafinesquia neomexicana). Mojave Desert, California.
This lady has been bedridden for nearly a year. She would like to go now, and one can understand why. She sees and hears little, and is dependent on her friends visiting for quality in her life. One has to admire her ability to take interest in what is going on in her family and the world. (She still likes her food!)
She likes to be read to, but I can only manage fairly short sessions.
This was taken in quite low light, resting on the bed end -- so don't expect great sharpness, but I didn't feel it needed it?

I noticed a dragon fly resting on the very tip of a evergreen tree in the neighbor's yard next to the fence. It seems like most of the time when they land on something, it is high in the air......at least for me. I did manage to get a few shots of it before it got tired of me 'bugging' it and flew away.
