___ I was too much bored in office today and I walked onto the roof for fresh air. To my surprise I found a bee was humming and roaming flower to flower. This scene dunno how made me feel so refresh and I couldn't resist me getting my D40 and captured it this way.

Pulicat lake bird sanctuary is a saline backwater lake lying along the T.N.-A.P coast; part extending to Chengalpattu district of T.N. It has an area of 481 sq.KM and it is the 2nd largest brackish water lagoon in India after Chilka lake in Orissa. The area on the TN side is 153.67 sq.km.
The Pulicat sanctuary is drained by Arni river while the Buckingham canal brings in the city’s drainage water. At the southern end is an opening on to Bay of Bengal through a shallow mouth of 200 m in width. The rest of the lake is closed by a sand bar running parallel to the Bay of Bengal in the form of the Sriharikota island.
The sanctuary has an area of 321 Sq. KM with 108 sq.KM of National Park area.
It lies within 11o 30’ N to 11o 42’ N and 76o 30’ E to 76o 45’ E.
Rainfall ranges from 800 - 2000mm. Temperature varies from 14o C to 33o C.
Altitude ranges from 100’ MSL to 1200’ MSL.
The wetlands eco system are considered as among the richest areas of bio diversity. Pulicat, by virtue of the mixing of fresh water with sea water is found to be an ideal habitat for diverse life-forms. 160 species of fish, 25 species of polychaete worms, 12 species of prawn, 19 species of mollusk and 100 speceis of birds are well documented apart from a number of other aquatic flora and fauna.
Among the most spectacular is the flamingo-a tall gaunt, white-coloured bird with a touch of pink on the wings, pink beak and legs, seen feeding in shallow water. The squat, large-billed grey pelican with gular pouch and a number of ducks are commonly seen. Flocks of sea gulls and terns circling in the sky or bobbing up and down on the water are an added attraction at pulicat. Besides, there are a number of waterside birds and waders such as curlews, stilts, plovers, sand pipers, lapwings, redshank. Egrets, herons, kites etc. are some other birds found here. The lake is also home to crabs, clams, mussels, oysters, snails, fish worms, insects, spiders, sponges, anemone, prawns, plankton and so on including rare endemic species like gilled leech, an unidentified bloodred fish, etc., Rapid siltation has caused loss of bio diversity. It is seen that mangrove opllen is found on Sriharikota Island indicating their existence some years back. Loss of mangroves may be one of the resons hastening siltation, reducing biodiversity and hence depriving fisherfolk of their livelihood.

這張算是去拍熱氣球送的前菜,此時地面上的熱氣球都還在準備而已,等待的時候天空還送了大景給我
在台東的幾天中,天天出景時時刻刻都很精采,每天都拍的很開心
你問我還會想去台東嗎? 當然想,就算需要開6-7小時的車都值得

A little over-the-top look at some bluebells at Roseberry Topping. When the sun gets low enough, the topping is not very bright - it needs a good strong sun to set it off
Fly fishing on a quiet lake at dawn brings a kind of solitude unlike any other . . .

Today I walked down the street to get a few grocery stuff and I found the store nearby my apartment was closing! No OJ, no yogurt, no meat... a lot of shelves were empty! I ended up stocking some non-perishables like coffee and canned soup as they were taking 50% off on all goods...

Wow. I'm amazed that so many people stopped by here for the last couple of days after this made it to Explore. But honestly, I don't think this is the best example of my photos and I believe there are "better" images than this one (well, depends on your taste tho, of course). So if you have time, PLEASE take a look at my photostream too! Thank you! ;-)
My first Explore Picture. !!!! Thank you all for making this happen

A shot I took on a storm chase last summer and finally got around to processing it...
This is Lake George, an ancient lake, believed to be more than a million years old.
Originally, small streams drained its catchment into the Yass River, but then the Lake George Escarpment rose due to major crustal movement along a strong fault line, blocking this drainage and forming the lake. Lake George has in previous Ice Ages been much larger and deeper.
Currently, the lake is dry and has been for many years... I cant imagine what it would look like full of water and life...
