Another shot of the frozen Cucumber falls - this time from the vantage point of some rocks below the falls.
Cucumber Falls could certainly be described as one of the most visited sites that Ohiopyle State Park in Pennsylvania has to offer.
It's nestled deep in the Laurel Mountains and is only minutes away from the famous Frank Lloyd Wright "Fallingwater" which he was the architect and designer of Fallingwater.
Cucumber Falls in Ohiopyle State Park. We stopped here on the way back from Gettysburg and Antietam. Always tricky to find a new angle.

For 118 pictures in 2018, #66, "Stainless Steel", this is my favorite knife, with a stainless steel blade, with a cucumber it was just used to slice.
My wife and I went out exploring a bit today up in the Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania, Ohio State Park to be exact. We wanted to find this waterfall, and the lady at the tourist information station said we had two options to get there.. #1)Hike up and around the island, #2)Walk by the road. We chose #2...which turned out to be a VERY technical hike and we weren't too happy about that, especially when we found out there was a third option of driving to the parking area just above the falls.
On ne sait jamais à quoi s'attendre lorsqu'on découpe en tranches un concombre, à l'exemple de ce portrait obtenu en portant haut et en contre jour cette tranche quelque peu équivoque. #Macro #MacroMondays #SlicesOfFood
Did it surprise me to learn that botanists classify the cucumber as a berry? Absolutely! But "much like tomatoes and squashes, it is often [might I suggest usually?] perceived, prepared, and eaten as a vegetable" (Wikipedia). After photographing it, I ran this cucumber through a blender and combined it with strawberry-flavored kefir to make a smoothie of sorts.
Have a fantastic week my friends!

More storms in region today, so me and the kid headed out to Ohiopyle State Park to check out the highest falls that I'm aware of in southwestern PA.
It has wrapped one of its tendrils around the nearby tomato plant.
It doesn't look tight but, somehow it is pulling that tomato leaf down.

Green cucumbers appear in red under UV light. This is the fluorescence of chlorophyll, which is concentrated in
chloroplasts. The latter have a diameter of around 4 microns here.
The much larger stomata (blueish) are "plant noses", absorbing carbon dioxide and breathing out oxygen as "waste gas".

The impatient desert cucumber vine is one of the first plants to start growing in the Sonoran Desert, not waiting until the official start of spring.
