I found this morning glory last week at the Chattahoochee Nature Center. Here's some information about the flower.

I think this one represents the color of the blooms a bit better...I really hard a hard time getting the image to look as vibrant on flickr as it does in camera and on my computer..first ones I posted were really dull on flickr...so hope this looks OK ...I know all screens are different.

I have this really hard time with B/W photos.Although I like them, I never get to do them... I miss colour!

So this one is almost a B/W photo! But the flower was already white, so that was an easy one for me!

Elle a pour nom celui d’une femme physicienne par deux fois Prix Nobel, Marie Curie, une excellence !

Hi everyone. Sorry for not posting. My external hard drive was damaged in my luggage and that is where all my photos are. I have someone that is going to look at it on Monday and retrieve everything for me. Will do my best to catch up as much as I can.

 

Have a great weekend.

I am having flower and bee withdrawals, so I have decided to add some photos of the beautiful flowering tree that I saw the week before last. #323 on Explore.

We have several Bougainvillea plants and I love to take their pictures. Hope you frickr friends do not get bore with them yet.

On Explore #235.

Always a thrilling display, Aerosuperbatics have been doing this for decades. I think their 'Excellence in Wingwalking' slogan is fairly recent, and it does raise the question as to whether any other standard of wingwalking would be survivable. 'Mediocre at wingwalking - but not for long!'

Apparently, anyone can have a go at this for a small fee (you pay them, not the other way round!). If you are interested, let me know and I'll book a slot for you. Don't all rush at once.....

One of the wingwalkers in the picture was interviewed befiore the show and said she got the job by applying to an advertisment. I imagine turning up for the interview was enough to secure the position....

The aircraft are Boeing Stearmans, if anyone is interested - very noisy as they have a similar engine and propeller to the T6. Texan/Harvard.

Thank you my friends.Thank you for your supports.
