Fun abstract of this Double Yellow Cone flower.. This plant species is hardier to find the last few seasons for the garden. It's one of my faves.
Thank you for your visits, faves and comments.
Have a great day!
The front light on this cormorant reveals a striking interplay of shadows and reflections. The feather detail, the reflection in the water, and the shadow cast on his wing create a triad of lighting effects. That blue eye sparkles like a polished turquoise gemstone.
This shot was taken looking up at Double Arch (at Arches National Park), a twin arch formation that is 112 feet tall, with a 144-foot span. The larger of the arches is the tallest in the park and the third widest. The smaller of the two is 67 feet wide and 87 feet tall. I combined about 4 or 5 images taken at 14.0 mm to get this shot.
This is a cut flower, perhaps it's a hybrid, not as fragrant (which is better, cause the regular ones have a very strong scent). Also, the stamen is eliminated, where the pollen is produced. If you let it touch your fingers or cloths, it will stain. So, it's NEW & BETTER.
Double exposure using the darker elements of each photos - includes the underside of a wine glass and the heart of an orchid flower. HMM
Here are a few images showing eagles with Plainfin Midshipmen in their talons or beak. It's amazing enough of these hardy fish maintain their population. I made an eagle gallery on my website if you'd care to check it out:

From the eagles I traveled south along the coast, stopping for some hikes along the way. I was headed to Sea Ranch to meet up with a great group of friends to shoot landscapes and enjoy each other's company. I was approaching the midway point of my journey.

A Double-crested Cormorant with breeding plumage! Photo taken at Klineline Park, Vancouver, Washington.
90026 still in Grand Central colours along with 90024 are seen at Comberford working the 4S47 1919 Daventry - Mossend 17/6/22. (Taken using a pole)
Measuring 70–90 cm (28–35 in) in length, it is entirely black except for a bare patch of orange-yellow facial skin and some extra plumage that it exhibits in the breeding season when it grows a double crest in which black feathers are mingled with white. It mainly eats fish and hunts by swimming and diving. Its feathers, like all cormorants, are not waterproof, and it must dry them out after spending time in the water.
It's been a great week for sun shots. It's hard to keep up but take'em while you can get'em.....right?

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment and faved my images. Enjoy the day.
Crossing double yellow lines (or a double white line) could get you a traffic ticket. Trying to photograph most of the wild mustard fields along the Pacific Coast Hightway can also land you in some trouble.
I drive by these fields on a regular basis. And thanks to social media (read Facebook & Instagram), people flock, and I mean flock to see and photograph these yellow flowers. The past couple of years have gotten out of hand. It's reached the point where the property owners now "post guards" and CalTrans stations big signs lit up with "No Parking" along the edge of these fields.
So, just for the record... (1) I didn't trespass (2) I didn't park illegally (3) I didn't cross the double yellow lines to get this image.
Cormorán orejudo
Cormoran à aigrettes
Ohrenscharbe
Its habitat is near rivers and lakes as well as in coastal areas, and is widely distributed across North America. Measuring 70–90 cm (28–35 in) in length, it is an all-black bird which gains a small double crest of black and white feathers in breeding season. It has a bare patch of orange-yellow facial skin and green eyes. It mainly eats fish and hunts by swimming and diving. Its feathers, like those of all cormorants, are not waterproof and it must spend time drying them out after spending time in the water.

I am sure my butterfly friends will have an easier time identifiying these two butterflies. I usually have quite a few spicebush swallowtails as I have an abundance of sassafras, which is one of their host plants.
It's just fun to have so many butterflies in the garden.

Thanks for looking at my photos. I certainly appreciate it.
In a single rainbow, sunlight spreads into a spectrum of colors from red to violet. But in a double rainbow, the colors are inverted, with red appearing on the inside and violet on the outside. According to Chinese mythology, red represents the feet, and violet symbolizes the head. Therefore, a single rainbow signifies a human descending from heaven to earth. A double rainbow, due to its reversal of colors, represents the movement from earth to heaven and is considered to be a sign of future success.
