A spectacular view of one of our most common migrants and residents. Can you name it without looking at the photo tags? Tower Grove Park in St Louis, Missouri
Whimsical hooks for towels and clothes made to look like a dog’s hind end. One should never take life too seriously.

This image diplays in its middle the reflection of a rock formation in a puddle, image rotated by 180°. The texture visible in the blue sky is actually the rock at the ground of the puddle.

Coyote Buttes South, Arizona
Another shot from the Christmas trip. There are two area of Coyote Buttes South and this is from Cottonwood Cove. It is a larger area and has more fun to play with. It started to snow from the morning and the snow almost lasted the whole day. We drove a few miles of sandy road in snow and got there at noon. The weather was so bad we can't even see what was a few hundred feet away so we waited. After an hour or so it got a little better so we decided to give it a try. And glad we did. It started to clear little by little and the different view brought by fresh powder was fantastic.
Thanks for stopping by!
Took a spin to the lighthouse and it was very cold and windy and l was wearing the wrong footwear and had no grip so sadly could not stay long!It is 37 metres tall and has 168 steps inside.
Coyote Buttes South is less visited than the North and access is difficult which is good for me... less crowd.
I visited Great Brook Farm while in the Carlisle area today, where these to calves were playing. They'll be providing milk soon for the farm's delicious ice cream.
I made it down to the north unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park this past Wednesday (7-12-2023) when the wildfire smoke from Canada had abated a bit. I had roamed over into Montana, then back east into McKenzie County, shooting some of the old homesteads and rural scenes before making my way to TRNP. The afternoon had been mostly sunny but occasionally one would see a thicker patch of clouds that would dapple the landscape with little spotlights from the the crepuscular rays that shone through holes in the clouds.

Well, somebody said a participant to the masturi forgot his pant... this is not exactly the case as going bare-butted like this is traditional for men during a matsuri. I have seen nicer butts, but this is the best I could shoot.
From wikipedia (as suggested by myasu), some explanation about this outfit:
Fundoshi (褌?) is the traditional Japanese undergarment for adult males, made from a length of cotton. Before World War II the fundoshi was the main form of underwear for Japanese adult males; however it went out of use quickly after the war with the advent of new underwear, such as briefs and trunks, on the Japanese market.
Nowadays, the fundoshi is mainly used not as underwear but as festival (matsuri) clothing at Hadaka Matsuri or, sometimes, as swimwear.
There are several types of fundoshi, including rokushaku, kuroneko, mokko and etchū.
The rokushaku fundoshi is a length of cloth, the dimensions being one shaku (34 cm / 14 inches) wide and six shaku (2.3 m / 92 to 96 inches) long; roku is Japanese for six, hence roku-shaku. The fundoshi is often twisted to create a thong effect at the back.
Etchū fundoshi is also a length of cloth, however it has a strip of material at the waist to form a fastening or string. The dimensions are 14 inches width by about 40 inches length, and it is tied with the material strip in front of the body. Etchū fundoshi was the form of fundoshi most popular among Japanese adult males as underwear from early 1900s to the end of the World War II.
No, this is not the world famous Wave, though it is in the general vicinity. the Wave has 400+ applicants each day for 20 permits. One can still get permits to this area, tho I do not know for how much longer. Tour groups are now bring their truck loads of clients, much to my dismay.
Well, not a great shot since I scared my model away -- but I found her butt compelling, lol. I love these colors. Shot handheld with a Quantaray 50mm F2.8 Tech-10 macro lens in available light.
Mardi Gras 2009: at Hotel Lyles Just for the record I didn't take this shot. Walker had the camera a good deal of the time and came back with a lot of butt shots.
