Johnson Spring is one of four different springs at Blue Springs Campground in High Springs. It is set apart from the other three and has its own meandering spring run to the Santa Fe River, and this allows it to maintain a wild character different from the other springs at one of Florida's premier springing locations. It is also the location of a favorite campsite in the park for those in the know, though regular park-goers remain largely oblivious to the relatively secluded site. The spring can be accessed on the park's nature trail.
I was gonna post this a couple nites ago, but, I fell asleep, and when I woke up, and saw it there, unposted, I just said, "Ah, nutzed", and went to bed. Looks like someone was getting ready to have a big bonfire. There is a tonne of driftwood, always, on this beach. Always more in the spring.
I love the background lighting in this shot. It really brings the photo alive. I have been getting into using my 50mm lens a lot lately and have been getting some amazing shots with it.
Next lens on my wish list is the Carl Zeiss 24-70mm f2.8 followed by a new camera body... the Sony a900. Cant wait :D I think I will have to check with the wife first
April 16 marks my next orbit around the sun (my b-day indeed). Therefore this touch of spring happiness in the context of an Amsterdam balcony treat.
The Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park is the largest hot spring in the United States.The vivid colors in the spring are the result of microbial mats around the edges of the mineral-rich water. The mats produce colors ranging from green to red; the amount of color in the microbial mats depends on the ratio of chlorophyll to carotenoids and on the temperature gradient in the runoff. In the summer, the mats tend to be orange and red, whereas in the winter the mats are usually dark green. The center of the pool is sterile due to extreme heat.
I have spent two days in Wulai where many butterfly species have been found. Maybe now it is too early in spring to meet butterflies. I should try later in March.
這兩天連衝烏來福山，櫻花雖然還有許多盛開著，可能因為時間尚早，早晚氣溫仍低，尚未遇見早春的蝴蝶，還是只拍到琉球青斑蝶，徜徉在一片紫花藿香薊間。
感謝賞景者Jeff Lin的資訊提供，才找到這藏於福山深處的一片世外桃源～
