Another great day to explore the local wetlands and this time I did take my walking stick just in case I needed to protect myself from the geese lol!
It isn't too often I take photos of the house sparrows but they are lovely too!
Thanks for your visits!

This Week's Lyrics-Anything by The Beach Boys
Take your pick from the majority of Beach Boys songs!

Raindrops falling in slow motion...
They danced with such a rhythm.
They moved with such a grace,
as though meditating in sanctum,
They filled the airspace.
They performed their ethereal ballet,
to the winds' orchestrated cadence.
With nature's unique cachet,
enrapturing me in transience.
Willing time, to standstill a moment,
shivering, I watch them waft around me.
Lost listening to their mordents,
unconsciously pulling close my chamois.
Devouring, with my eyes for maws,
Oh! what a magical sight that was!

Spectral Observer
The Spectral Observer is a light version of the 6933 - Spectral Starguider. This smaller vehicle is used in the Advanced Outposts. Its smaller size allows it to be a versatile ground and aerial vehicle while maintaining all the functionalities of its big brother. This single pilot vehicle is usually used in pairs because one of the Spectral Observers can lift-off and provide air support to the unit on the ground.

Description •
I captured this unusual bloom in the Butterfly Hollow exhibit at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens. I'm not sure what kind of bloom this is (hopefully someone knows).
Like yesterday's shot, my imagination is running wild with what this could resemble. I see an alien like character reminiscent of the droids (the white part) or Queen Amidala in her royal dress from Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.

Thanks for looking. I appreciate feedback!

How to work around the censorship in Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore and Korea:
Flickr now censors all non-safe photos from members using a Yahoo-ID created with Yahoo.de (Germany), or indicating a location in Hong Kong, Singapore, or Korea. In order to see censored photos, you might have to create a yahoo-ID with yahoo.com and make sure that the location that you enter is NOT in Germany, Singapore, Hong Kong or Korea. If you already have a Flickr account that is being censored by Yahoo (e.g. in Germany), you should create another Yahoo-ID as descibed above (i.e. not created with Yahoo.de) and transfer your Flickr account to that new Yahoo-ID using the Yahoo-ID Transfer Tool.

My friend Michael Naimark is exploring new ideas for virtual reality experiences, in collaboration with Google and other researchers. To discuss this work, we got together with two other colleagues, Steve Gano and Jim McKee -- with whom we worked at the Apple Multimedia Lab in the eighties, pushing the envelope on related questions.
We started with a tour of the historic Sentinel Building in North Beach, home of American Zoetrope -- where Francis Coppola worked on many cinematic masterpieces like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now. We checked out the underground screening room and sound mixing room where some of that work took place, then headed upstairs to Michael and Jim’s studios, for a wonderful conversation about the new VR frontier.
Michael and his colleagues are researching how people are represented in virtual reality. Their first experiment at Google’s “Big Chairs” Park led to some helpful guidelines on how to film people for VR, by using different camera angles and distances.
They’re also investigating ‘hyper-images’ that resemble a group of people, but that are shot at different times and composited together to create both ‘credible’ and ‘incredible’ pictures. To enable more experiments like these, Michael is developing ‘IMU VR’, a new type of camera that could make it easier for communities to tell their stories in VR. More on this later.
It was great to reconnect with my colleagues and brainstorm these ideas together. It felt like the good old days, and the creative juices were flowing all over again ...

4-I am a registered nurse.
5-I lived in New Orleans for 12 yrs as a kid. We had 2 1/2 feet of water in our house from Hurricane Betsy-you don’t forget something like that!

8-Unlike Sue (SavingMemories, one of the people who tagged me) I LOVE
