Managed a walk in between rain showers and stumbled across this glen and mini waterfall. No tripod with me so a little tricky to capture handheld but quite like this scene!

Fuchsia ‘Dollar Princess’ bears small, double flowers with short, purple tubes and red sepals, in contrast with dark-green leaves. Often grown in pots on the patio in partial shade, and advised to keep plants overwintered indoors.
However, this plant grows in one of our garden borders and happily comes into flower each year.
Photographed in our garden.
Taken with my Canon EOS 7D Mk II and Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro Lens, and framed in Photoshop.

The light fading quickly last night after a beautiful sunset on one of Wexford's hidden gems Dollar Bay. A small beach you pass on route to the Hook it acquired its name from pirated Spanish dollars that were stashed here in the 17th century.

This is located on Last Dollar Road near the Dallas Divide. Mt Sneffels is in the background. Ralph Lauren's 166,000 acre Double RL Ranch is just to the east of this.

Sand Dollar Beach is the largest unbroken stretch of sand along the Big Sur coast. It is protected by the high bluffs behind it. The beach is about 150 ft below the top of the bluffs and is reached by a good trail and impressive staircase. A photo merge of four handheld images.
Hope your week is off to a good start. We are in for a some welcome rain this week.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Jangyre-ryn or Dollar Cove in near Gunwalloe in Cornwall. There is a section of undulating sandstone rock on the beach that never seems to dry properly between the tides. As a consequence it has a stripy appearance. I used focus stacking to get sharpness across the frame.
This happens to be reverse side of a "Thomas Jefferson" presidential dollar coin. I am not a collector (by collector standards), but pocket dollar coins when I happen upon them. I am on the lookout for a "Sacagawea".
In a similar vein to my previous post, in retrospect I regret not giving this girl any currency for her effort in rowing out to our boat on Tonle Sap lake, Cambodia, in a ... tub?
We were warned by our tour guide not to give money and even though we heeded that advice, sure enough we were soon approached by other craft bearing small children and snakes. It is nevertheless difficult to resist the pleas of a young child for "dollar, dollar".
If I had this time again, I would prefer to ignore the guide's advice and pay the dollar(s), rather than feel guilty for the rest of my life that I didn't.
feeding the birdie at the woodland park zoo, Seattle. Those Popsicle sticks with the grains glued to it cost $1. I think the employee in the cage selling those only took cash. So take at least $20 and someone strong enough to pull you out of that place before you spend all your money.
Also 100mm lens was a bad idea. wish I had taken a compact camera so I could feed with one hand and shoot with the other.

Five Dollars was the toll to cross this old bridge in its early years.The bridge underwent extensive rehabilation in 1973,years after nearly being destoyed by an arsonist.It was built in 1863,and was part of the Peoria to Galena Trail.
Located just north of the beautiful historic town of Princeton,IL.
Looks better in Lightbox...
Finding sand dollars is always a treat and I am glad I thought of taking an as found shot of this one on the beach in the late day sun. I love how the grains of sand become like little crystals or tiny gemstones glistening in the light.

Shot this photo on the Million Dollar Highway. This was located on the Ouray side of Red Mountain Pass.
2018 was peak year for the aspens turning golden. Usually are good, but a peak year happens maybe 1 or 2 times in 10 year period.
Earlier tonight at Dollar Bay. Dollar and Booley Bay are situated beside each other and are very secluded beaches on the road between Duncannon to Hook Head. Great location with impressive cliffs and one to return to when the light and tides are just right.
I'm sitting at work on Monday and I notice that it is getting darker outside. I figured it was going to rain, so I didn't pay it any more attention. Well it got a lot darker and I looked out the wondow and it was looking a bit nasty so I quickly went to www.wixt.com our news channel to look at the radar to see what was going on. In red right up at the top of the page was TORNADO WARNING. I know the difference between watch and warning adn all we have ever really gotten up here were watches, which means that the conditions are favorable to produce a tornado. THe warning means that something is up and you need to keep your eye to sky and pay attention to your surroundings because one is trying to form or one has already formed and is on the ground.
I quickly went over to the weather channel website and got more details. It was telling me that at 2:50 this storm would be right where I was. The time was 2:45. All I wanted to do was to get home to my house and my kids. School dismissal is at 2:50. I fly out the door at work, jump in the van, pull to the end of the driveway away from all the trees and come face to face with this lovely wall cloud. I'm telling you I almost wet my pants. Since I only live 5 miles away I figured I would get home rather quickly. Well I thought wrong. About a mile away from work I started getting pounded by hail that was the size of half dollars. It was so loud inside my van. The intensity and the loudness was just insane. The whole lasted for about 5 minutes but I swear it was the longest 5 minutes of my life. No tornado actually touched down, but it tried forming several times out of this wall cloud. This shows the time elapsed photography from our news website:

I bought this Silver Dollar, poured in acrylik, 1976 in Philadelphia PA, during the bicentennials celebrations close to the Libery Bell in a Souvenir Shop.
