I hope that someone in Flickrland can help me identify this amazing dragonfly. It is extraordinary to me because I've never seen one of these before. I haven't been able to find it in my dragonfly handbook or online, either. I discovered it near a small lake at nearby Leelanau State Park. Unlike many dragonflies that I've found in this location, this one was not clinging to plants at the water's edge. Rather, it was visiting plants closer to the parking area.
Note: It was very windy the day I made these photos, which created focusing problems.
Thanks to my friend, Tina (DaPuglet), for sleuthing out that this is a female Calico Pennant Dragonfly!!

Frogfish, or anglers, don't move very much, preferring to sit and wait camouflaged for their prey. Their camouflage is so good that to date no one has spotted the frogfish in the Mediterranean Sea!

At least I think they were weeds. While driving along the Icefields Parkway near Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada I could see miles of what looked like snow lining the highway. I pulled over and discovered loads of what appeared to be weeds. Maybe you know what they are. Anyway it made a nice image. I used Lightroom and Topaz Studio to process.
Si, l'uomo è straordinario, ma ha troppi difetti.
L'uomo si fa sentire troppo, disturba l'equilibrio.

This beautiful old Ketch was built in 1869 for my husband's great, great grandfather and this painting is a treasured heirloom.
She was built on the Hawkesbury River New South Wales and plied between there and Sydney - Australia.

Nothing extraordinary, except for the presence of clouds, which we depend on, so much more than we think about.
Thank you for looking! Isn't God a great artist?

An old storage silo in Launceston. I have to give credit to Thomas Ryan, a well known professional photographer based in Launceston who told me about this spot and gave me the inspiration. I've got a few takes on these steps, so this shot won't be the last.
This evening's sunset was so extraordinary and I don't believe I captured it adequately...

Deventer op Stelten 2017 - English
For more than twenty years the historic town of Deventer in the Netherlands has celebrated culture and arts on the streets. While ‘Op Stelten’ (‘on stilts’) is now used largely as a figurative sense, the performers are truly of the highest level and come from all over Europe. During the weekend of 7 till 9 July the centre of Deventer turns into a giant open air theatre stage and attracts thousands of enthusiastic visitors.
This year, the 21st edition of the festival takes place from Friday evening the 7th until Sunday afternoon the 9th of July. The programme includes more than 150 top performances by theatre groups from all over Europe and the Netherlands. The entrance is free, with exception of a few ticketed performances.
In the last years ‘Deventer Op Stelten’ has developed strongly content-wise into a internationally acknowledged festival in professional open air theatre. As a result of its specific form and artistic quality, ‘Deventer Op Stelten’ has grown out to a leading festival for international open air theatre, and was declared the winner of Best Public Event of The Netherlands in 2014. Each year, the festival is visited by more than 120.000 visitors and is seen as an extraordinary, festive and world class cultural festival.

I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I just love doing ICM's and multiple exposures and having the surprise of how they end up looking when I upload them. Here I was walking down by the Lonsdale Quay - there are still people there, but it's so much quieter since Covid.
This was done in camera - an ICM taken with my Lensbaby Velvet 56.
It's fun to zoom in and see all the details.
So many beautifully colored waters in the BC/Alberta national parks, like Lake Louise, Lake Moraine, Maligne Lake etc. Emerald Lake has a similar color to Lake Louise, only richer due to more powdered limestone in it's glacial runoff.
Nature rules, and unfortunately much of my recent trip north had much cloudiness and rain. I spent a day here waiting for a break in the clouds to allow the sun to bring forth this amazing color. This was one of the few opportunities I had. In full sun the turquoise color is extraordinary. Next time!
Friday's here. Enjoy a wonderful day and weekend!
Sometimes a change of scenery reveals just how extraordinary the ordinary can be.
This egret gazed out into the lake, patiently awaiting its morning meal to surface - a familiar, everyday moment. Yet, with the autumn colors reflected in the water behind it, the scene became something truly remarkable
