Still love Minimal Photography. Suspect some of you remember the Seagull shot from last year sadly this time no Seagull wanted to be included in this photo. Also had to wait for a while as a family wanted to have a swim near to this so patience was a key which I like to add I do not like waiting ;).
Hope you like :)

ABOUT THIS IMAGE
isola nel cielo
I had been traveling on I 80W from Vernal Utah for about 3 ½ hours. I needed a rest stop badly when I came upon this scene. Then I also desperately wanted to not only find a rest stop, but to get off the highway to get this shot. Luck was there as near Salduro, Utah there was a rest stop, a perfect place for this image. It had rained a few days earlier, which gave a perfect reflection for the mountain and cloud. Usually it is a bone dry lake.

When you're weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I'm on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can't be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Dallas Arboretum & Botanical Gardens. A little Light Room and a little NIK to get an artistic version of a hot summertime flower. This one and others are in the trial gardens and I like the multi-color!

What is a Ramsar site?
Ramsar sites are wetlands of international importance designated under the Ramsar Convention. The convention was developed and adopted by contracting nations at a meeting in Ramsar, Iran on February 2, 1971 and came into force on December 21, 1975. In January 2011, The Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance included 160 contracting parties covering over 1,900 sites (known as Ramsar sites) with a total area of over 187,984,550 km², up from 1,021 sites.
For the latest updates check Ramsar website: www.ramsar.org
UAE's first Ramsar site
With The UAE's accession, Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary (RAKWS) has become the Nation's first Ramsar wetland site. RAKWS is located at the head of the 14Km long watercourse known as Dubai Creek, and covers an area of 620 hectares featuring sabkhas saline flats, intertidal mudflats and mangroves, small lagoons and pools, and a few tiny islands which lies at the interface between the Persian Gulf and the Al Awir Desert.
During winter, RAKWS supports more than 20,000 water birds of 67 species and acts as a critical staging ground for the wintering birds of the East African-West Asian Flyway. The site hosts more than 500 species of flora and fauna and is one of the best-managed arid zone wetlands in the region. Located within Dubai city, it is an important eco-tourism destination and receives increasing numbers of local and international visitors.
The importance of RAKWS is beyond its aesthetic value. It serves as a beacon on the significance of biodiversity as a life supporting system for humanity's continual existence and its being an integral part of the cultural and traditional heritage of the UAE.
