Lovely morning at the local Wiltshire Wildlife Trust nature reserve the other day. These are Snakeshead Fritillaries - the genuine wild version (at least as wild as they are in the UK - they may be an ages old introduction). I had to focus stack two shots even with the nikon 14-24 at f16 to get the dof. Also many thanks to Tony Kuyper's new Triple Play actions in the processing.
Spring blossom and buds in November!

This is my latest Feltscape. It was inspired by the last few days of Spring tease we had here in New England :) This is part of my wishing for Spring to come and stay acts ;)

Another spring frog video shot on the Northwest Trail in Moncton during the last week.
This is the product of 3 different evenings staking out the frogs at the same pond with my gear. Each year for the past 3-4 years, I've been going to the same pond early each May when the "Peepers" wake up from their winter slumber.
To me, their mating chorus is a definite sign of spring, and it reminds me of when I was a young boy growing up in rural Nova Scotia where they could also be heard this time of year.
This year, my gear is a little bit better than in previous years, so I wanted to get a close-up of them singing, this was about the best I could do so far this year.
Their evening songs will be going on for a few more days at least, so I may still venture out to see if I can get better pictures or videos.
Hope you enjoy this.

"The geology of Mammoth Hot Springs, located in the northwestern section of Yellowstone National Park, is in hyperdrive. In some locations, active springs are building up the terraces and mounds at a rate of two feet per year. That means the spectacle you see today will be very different from the one you see on your next visit.
So what's driving this extraordinary pace of rock formation? Unlike other sections of the park that are primarily composed of volcanic rhyolite, the mammoth area has retained it's ancient deposits of limestone left by a prehistoric inland ocean that once covered this area. When the limestone comes into contact with carbonic acid found in the Mammoth's hot spring water, it dissolves into a solution. When the water reaches the surface, carbon dioxide gas escapes and releases the limestone to be re-deposited as a mineral called travertine - the chalky white rock you see. Travertine, technically called calcium carbonate, is the basic ingredient in TUMS and Rolaids, two popular heartburn remedies. " (Yellowstone Expedition Guide)
Thermophiles (heat-loving microorganisms) create tapestries of color where hot water flows over and along the mounds and terraces of Mammoth. Colorless and yellow thermophiles grow in the hottest water; orange, brown, and green thermophiles thrive in cooler waters. Colors also change with the season.

Chinese New Year, Spring Festival, is fast approaching ( Jan. 31 ) and there is a lot of cleaning going on everywhere. Sparkling windows are a necessity to welcome the new with clear vision... I need to clean mine today too.
