Spotted this little cub up a tree last night. In Cades Cove. Was a mom and two little ones. Gosh they were cute.
A Bactrian Camel peeks over a concrete fence at the Detroit Zoo. The Bactrian Camel's long eyelashes protect its eyes from blowing sand and snow, and the raised eyebrows shield its eyes from the sun. The nostrils close to keep out sand. Native to the deserts and mountain grasslands of central Asia, only a few hundred of these animals remain in the wild.

Sun shines carefully through, trying to get into shadows, where frozen darkness dwells. This morning was very cold and shadows were persistent, but they had to leave and let the light take the places. Did shadows take the frost with them? Nope, they left it behind and the Sun couldn't rescue the frozen kingdom.
This national marvel traveling higher levels of Yosemite gazing through the beautiful thick Redwood's seeing top of the peak of Half Dome from a narrow loop; there are pretty much no pull overs on the way up to Glacier Point...enjoyed the beautiful surrounding forest complimented by the background...here in our Pacific Northwest we've had some serious fires wiping out many forested areas...Yosemite had a lot of dead ones on our visit.
The critical floral tissues appear through a small slit in the petals of a Pasqueflower. This individual was growing at 8700'/ 2600 m on Grassy Top in Boulder county. The appearance of this beautiful species in the spring is eagerly anticipated by many - it is one of the showiest flowers to emerge in areas where late snow and frosts are common. Here in the Front Range of the Rockies we're fortunate to have populations of pasqueflowers from the base of the mountains at 5400'/ 1650 m to the alpine at 12,000'/ 3700 m. This allows us to enjoy these lovely flowers from early May to late June.
“The beautiful spring came; and when Nature resumes her loveliness, the human soul is apt to revive also.” - Harriet Ann Jacobs

Praying Mantis
This "youngish' Mantis played a game of hide and seek with me today. I finally got the shot!
This is Happisburgh lighthouse from a different angle. I actually prefer this one to the shot I used for my daily pic/weekly challenge. My husband chose the other one and I wasn't going to post this one but have changed my mind now.
Still catching up.
We found the rising sun peeking around the corner of the barn somewhere between Fallbrook and Balderson in Lanark County. In post, I used the shade white balance to add warmth to the image.
I changed the white balance to Shade in post to warm up the photo. The reality was bluer.

This Bird of Paradise flower (Strelitzia reginae) seems to be playing hide-and-seek with visitors at the spacious botanical garden of the Friedrich Alexander University in Erlangen, Germany. (The two visitors in this photo are barely recognizable as such.) The garden is a popular spot for local people and tourists who want to view some of the approximately 4000 exotic plants cultivated there, study botany, or just have a peaceful walk in natural surroundings. There are plenty of benches in shady spots where you can relax and forget the stress of daily life or chat with a friend. The Flickr map shows how impressive it is spatially. [DSC08927_lr_2000]
