... but probably not for the nose? ;-))
Fruits of a stinking iris / Übelriechende Schwertlilie (Iris foetidissima)
in Botanical Garden, Frankfurt
It is known as "stinking" because some people find the smell of its leaves unpleasant when crushed or bruised, an odour that has been described as "beefy". (Wikipedia)
But who should crush Iris leaves?
The fascinating thing of chameleons are their eyes. They could be moved in every different direction. So they could watch back and forward at the same time!

Part of the stuff I get to take back to my classroom. I have thousands of marbles for a behavior system I do with my students. I've been purging my house of all the stuff I need to take back to school with me next month and hallelujah, I found my marbles.
HBW!
Made front page, yahoo :)
"If you want to express yourself you must present something tangible. But after a while this has only the function of a historic document. Objects aren't very important any more. I want to get to the origin of matter, to the thought behind it." Joseph Beuys, 1969. Ignore the Exif data, this shot was done with the Helios 44M-7 wide-open.
Clark's Woods - Iowa
Didn't have to venture out very far to capture the early morning delights. Buds, blossoms and leaves are finally "popping" announcing that spring is here in the heartland!
The variety of colors, shapes and size makes a walk in the woods worth the effort!

I must admit this hasn’t been the first time to have experienced this unique bonding, when the bird accepted my presence and wouldn’t fly away. Call it “interspecies communication" if you wish, or telepathy - I don’t know (smile).
After taking a few good shots with my 400mm f5.6, I have decided to take the chance and switch lenses, for a shallower DOF. The cute owl didn't move a bit. I must admit having experienced a feeling of acceptance and trust. I gave the owl its space by not getting too close.
Shot taken at f2.8 with Canon 5dIII coupled with canon 70-200 f/2.8 II.
Bent, but never broken.
This reed survived a Lithuanian winter that outweighs it a million to one. Proof that the heaviest weights we carry are usually the ones we create for ourselves and exist only in our heads.
Winter is leaving Lithuania. I suggest we leave the heavy thoughts behind with it.
A Baja sunrise over the Sea of Cortez is a visual treat. The early morning glow emanates a range of soft hues of orange and gold with a beautiful array of blues, going from light blue on the horizon to a deep blue in the upper sky. The air is still and peaceful, filled with the sounds of waking seabirds and gentle waves. It’s the ideal time for quiet reflection and photography.

The Royal Greenhouses and the Royal Palace of Laeken in Brussels combine their reflections and their glass roofs to offer a twisted and confused vision.
Serres royales et palais royal de Laeken à Bruxelles mèlent leurs reflets et leurs verrières pour offrir une vision tordue et confondue.

Valle de Izas, Huesca, Pirineo Aragonés.
La última luz del atardecer incide sutilmente sobre las puntas del impresionante macizo rocoso, el denominado "Balcón de Iserías" con 2275 metros de altitud. Bajo él se muestra el "Barranco de Las Negras", llamado así por las rocas oscuras de origen volcánico que recorren todo el lecho fluvial.
Este río, es un afluente del "río de Canal Roya" que a su vez es afluente del "río Aragón" y este es uno de los principales afluentes del "río Ebro", el más caudaloso de España. Y, con 930 kilómetros de longitud, el segundo más largo que desemboca al mar Mediterráneo tras el Nilo. El recorrido que hace aquí el agua es realmente impresionante.
La elevación de la temperatura está incrementado la velocidad del deshielo, y aún más tras las intensas lluvias de los últimos días. El chapoteo del discurrir del agua entre las oscuras rocas es muy sonoro. A pesar de todo, es un paisaje ordenado, armonioso y que ante mí muestra el equilibro natural que hay entre los distintos elementos. Es como una gran orquesta con distintos instrumentos, todos tan dispares pero unidos en una efímera melodía visual, la melodía del paisaje.

When viewed small this image seems to be one thing but as it get larger it switches and it's true perspective emerges. I liked the pattern but also the surprise.
SOOC - pretty much.
An ominous view over Clear Lake yesterday morning as the weather forecast was predicting freezing rain, sleet mixed with snow for our area starting late last night!
Well guess what? The weather man must know what he is doing because that is just what we are experiencing here this morning!
Sigh . . . not good!

I wanted to post it here as I felt she would get more feedback from my lovely followers here on flickr!
Shot at an art exhibition that was celebrating interplay between ideas and cultural multiplicity. The theme was to showcase how artists do not confine themselves to a singular art-making language, medium, or style—but, rather, range across a spectrum of possibilities.
Personal note: I really did not understand most of the art work or the idea behind it, but they were nice to look at !
"Sangam/Confluence" art exhibition at NMACC, Mumbai.

An image taken when I was in New Mexico photographing an Indian Day School in Sanostee, near Ship Rock. It was a pretty breezy evening with red dust blowing. I turned around to get the wind out of my face, and this is the view I saw. That's Mitten Rock on the right and the road is Indian Service Rte 13 heading towards Arizona.
