A quartet of Arizona Eastern B40-8s soak up the evening sun as they roll through Bylas for Globe, AZ.
I had a wander around London today and couldn't resist the way the light was playing on this security guard.
Photo taken outside the Globe Theatre.
This converted six-storey warehouse located adjacent to the river Thames is now 138 apartments. The red crane which was added around 1930 is now just decorative.
Echinops ritro. A common garden plant with many varieties, originally from southern Europe. Seen at Kew Gardens.
Slightly more detailed than previously posted version.
These are hanging from the rafters in the flower shed at Wright-Locke Farm. After they finish drying, some will be used in arrangements, and others will be sold to a local florist. This image is a 50-frame focus stack, blended with Helicon Focus. I set the camera to take 100 frames, but only used 50, to keep the other bundle a bit blurry.
'The World Turned Upside Down' by Mark Wallinger, on the LSE Campus, Holborn, London. It hasn't escaped some controversy among students with Israel being defaced by some and a few Chinese getting upset over Taiwan being shown as a sovereign nation plus Lhasa in Tibet being shown as a state capital. Nonetheless, it's an impressive object to come across.
Seen at Longwood Gardens during the set up of a light show. There are two people here...one fully inside the globe. Every once in awhile, the person standing on the conservatory floor would run off and retrieve a part or tool and hand it up to the person working inside.
Desert Globe Mallow (Sphaeralcea ambigua), one of the wildflowers of the Sonoran Desert, growing along the roadside in Tucson, Arizona.
This is another shot from my recent visit to the gardens at Borde Hill. I've actually had a Globe thistle in my garden for the first time this year and it's been wonderful. When the flowers came out the bees really loved them and literally jostled each other for position some days. They're still beautiful at this late stage.
A common desert shrub with bright orange flowers. Scientific name is Sphaeralcea ambigua. Interestingly, this plant is in the same family as is the cotton plant. Shot this with a Nikon D800 and Nikkor 105mm f2.8 micro.
Left out in the cold overnight, my crystal ball accreted bits of frost on the surface, making the scene 'inside' look interesting, reminding me of those little snow globes children love to shake.
Scenes in crystal balls are inverted, so I inverted the photo.
