our daily challenge: making tracks.

Been meaning to photograph this for ages, but whenever I've had my zoom lens with me the weather's been all cloudy - this is the roof of the Radcliffe Observatory, no longer in use as such but visible at the moment while the area around it is being redeveloped. I think it's rather pretty.
One of the guidebooks for Aruba promised an "unnatural number of iguanas" in Wilhelmina Park. Though we didn't find a single iguana in that park, we did find the "unnatural" concentration of reptiles around the corner by the marina.
These teal-spotted guys were particularly skittish, making it a challenge to get a good shot.

Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch, his wife Mrs. Sarah Lynch, Command Sgt. Maj. Neil Ciotola and his wife Mrs. Beth Ciotola represented the Installation Management Command at La Noche del Rey in the Main Plaza of the San Fernando Cathedral in downtown San Antonio Friday, April 8.
El Rey Feo LXII, Walter Serna, crowned Bill Drain as El Rey Feo LXIII (the "ugly king" in Spanish, or "the People's King") for Fiesta 2011. Drain is charged with raising money for the League of United Latin American Citizens, or LULAC's college scholarship. Every event during Fiesta, known as "The Party With a Purpose," raises money for a different charity in San Antonio.
Fiesta San Antonio started in 1891 as a one-parade event and has evolved today into one of this nation’s premier festivals with more than 100 events and an economic impact of almost $284 million for the city.
Guests at the event included military commanders, government officials, civic leaders, Fiesta royalty and other officials.

"Black ants have made a musty mound
My purple pine tree under,
And I am often to be found,
Regarding it with wonder.
Yet as I watch, somehow it;s odd,
Above their busy striving
I feel like an ironic god
Surveying human striving.
Then one day came my serving maid,
And just in time I caught her,
For on each lusty arm she weighed
A pail of boiling water.
She said with glee: "When this I spill,
Of life they'll soon be lacking."
Said I: "If even one you kill,
You bitch! I'll send you packing."
Just think - ten thousand eager lives
In that toil-worn upcasting,
Their homes, their babies and their wives
Destroyed in one fell blasting!
Imagine that swift-scalding hell! . . .
And though, mayhap, it seems a
Fantastic, far-fetched parallel -
Remember . . . Hiroshima."
~ Robert William Service, 1874-1958 ~
