They may look like normal size leaves, but these are miniature Oak leaves growing off of that single little stem that has broken out from the trunk of the tree.
This tree is in my landscape and these triplet beauties caught my eye as I was cutting the grass yesterday.
In the house I went, grabbed my macro lens, and captured them from several angles. Here is the result.
What is it about autumn leaves that are so beautiful?!
One night in 1984, the Reverend Bernard Coffindaffer had an epiphany. God called him, he explained afterward, to erect sets of three crosses across the land to recall Christ's crucifixion at Calvary. He would raise them wherever he could and start nearby—in the foothills west of the Allegheny Mountains in central West Virginia.
I'm not sure if these three crosses are part of what he erected, because he died in 1993 and others have taken up his mission. Most of his were painted with the center one being yellow and the two flanking ones blue. Many are now falling in disrepair which I find sad. It was very foggy the day I took this photo. Anyway, seems a fitting photo for today as it's Sabbath and Anita, Maddy (grandbaby) and I are headed to Roanoke and church. Have a blessed day everyone! :)
Turbostar 170638 makes the approach Melton with the 1L36 10.22 Birmingham New Street to Stansted Airport
Only a record shot but this was my first of the year and possibly my earliest ever. At Hankridge on the edge of Taunton.
Nobody will believe this, but as I was taking this shot two coppers 👮♀️👮 (and yes they were both small) came up behind me to ask if I'd seen a tent which they'd been sent to find. I thought about getting them to pose with the first small copper but by then it had flown :-(

Victor Vasarely is truly a genius, having captured this image on canvas with brush and paint in a wonderfully nuanced and harmonious way, without the use of today's high-resolution printing technology.
The painting hung high up in the stairwell of the Würth Museum, and I could only photograph it with a telephoto lens.
Here on my computer screen (press L), the image appears completely three-dimensional, with the blue areas curved concave and convex, and the red areas receding into the background. He swapped blue and black and red and black diagonally.
Dreidimensional
Victor Vasarely ist wahrlich ein Genie, hat er doch dieses Bild mit Pinsel und Farbe super nuanciert und abgestimmt, ohne die heutige, feindüsige Druckertechnik, auf Leinwand gebannt.
Das Gemälde hing hoch im Treppenhaus des Würth-Museums und ich konnte es nur mit einem Tele fotografieren.
Hier auf meinem Computerbildschirm (bitte Ansicht vergrößern) wirkt das Bild vollkommen dreidimnsional, die Blauen Flächen konkav und konvex gebogen, die roten Flächen in den Hintergrund zurück tretend (lang- und kurzwelliges Licht). Er vertauschte jeweils Blau und Schwarz und Rot und Schwarz in der Diagonale.

Three Drivers sculpture is towards the top of the 118 metre staircase known as at the Yerevan Cascade in Armenia's capital, and towards the top of it. Fine views of Mount Ararat from up here. The scultpure is by a British artist; sources disagree if he is called David Martin or Mark Voller.
The three statues are identical, just rotated differently.
This wonderful silo depicts 'The Zookeeper and DRAPL's version of the legend of the Three Moon. They are 37th set of silos to Join the Australian Silo Art Trail and were completed in July 2020. The Three Moon silos (Three Moon actually being the name of the locality) is a few kilometres south of Monto, Queensland.
Legend of the Three Moon - Version 1
Three Moon Creek was named according to legend where a swagman, Aboriginal stockman or a Chinese station cook, was boiling his billy on the banks of the creek and noticed three moons - one in the sky, one reflecting on the creek and one reflecting in his billy.

There is another story also of how the name came about. The following is from Miss Caswell of Euston, Toowoomba who spent her early life in Cannindah, a place that is located very close to Three Moon.
Henry Drew Caswell died in 1887 on his Cannindah property so his son Clive Elliot took on the management of the property. At the time, some of the Aboriginals were given the job of washing the sheep. They would have been well paid and when the job came to an end, they would have been anxious to know when their services would be required again. It would have been no use telling them to come back in three months, but they were able to understand to come back when three moons had passed away.
From that time on the creek became known as Three Moon Creek.
The above story is from a letter that is from Julieanne Cripps, a descendent of Patrick McKay's partner in Cannindah Station.
The Information supplied for the first legend was supplied by the Monto Shire Council.

A BNSF Railway grain train, a Union Pacific local freight, and a UTA FrontRunner commute converge at Lakota Junction in Orem, Utah on July 29, 2022.
We saw this pair of Chameleons during a morning hike through Bwindi National Forest. While visiting Bwindi Impenetrable Forest we stayed at Rushaga Gorilla Camp. Loved it.
On this trip to Uganda we used Ngoni Safaris Uganda. They provided excellent service. I highly recommend them. Elias and Stanley were our guides while in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest area and they were awesome.
Located just off the beach in Oceanside Oregon, Three Arch Rocks is a National Wildlife Refuge.
And although we did not see them on our trip, the refuge features the largest colony of tufted puffins south of Alaska.
My goal was to get far enough out in the water so that I could get a good angle on the center arch so that I could see all the way through it.
Somehow that day, my little waterproof point and shoot was not in the bag. So I waded out up to my chest, but this was as far as I felt comfortable with my camera in my hand.
I was able to get a glimpse through that center arch, but it wasn't quite what I'd hoped for.
btw, the Pacific Ocean in northwest Oregon can be a tad cool - even in June.
