It was Mothers Day today here in Australia and Rumblemumbles arrived early morning as we were going for a picnic to Scarborough in norther Brisbane by the seaside.
The beach there is flat due to the offshore islands that you can barely see in the picture, so there is no surf.
We hadn't been there for many years, and I was totally amazed by the number of people and traffic there.
Our usual quiet spot that we used to use away from the crowd was just full up with people.
Anyway, the sun was shining but there was a brisk breeze, as there is a southerly change coming overnight to drop the temperatures tomorrow.
We went for a walk after lunch and as we sat down and had an icecream, I saw how healthy the Norfolk Island pals looked.
This is SOOC.
A lone pine tree on the top of the valley of Hoodoos at Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah. What a magical place this is. I seem to have many many images at sunset and then in the morning where rain was promised but not fulfilled.
This photo was a result of my search for interesting autumn pictures on Sugarloaf Mountain in Frederick County, Maryland. This is a shot that has probably been taken thousands of times from the East View of the Park. There was a haze that layered the various tree lines and gentle slopes below...hiding the autumn colors. Oh well, I tried

on the wall in our garden, this is the male and the picture is just like one I took last year, a cool dude with his foot on the gate, the dark fur on his nose is his lush summer coat coming through, not the best of images but hopefully much better to come!
Every few years, Pine Siskins make unpredictable movements called irruptions into southern and eastern North America. This seems to be one of those years. North Pond 11/28/14

Beautiful rural North Carolina. This is the Five Eagle property that has a conservation easement held by the North Carolina Coastal Land Trust. While most of the visible trees are Loblolly Pines, they are actively managing the land to restore the historic Longleaf Pine forest.
what a difference a year makes, last year on this day my parents were still living in their apartment in Pine Villa, my Dad was still on this earth, and my mother was driving me crazy, actually driving everyone crazy, including herself. I wish she had been on medication years earlier, it would have made my dad's last few years a lot more pleasant... oh well, we do what we can do, now we are still immersed in the archeological dig of their stuff... the ashes of Pompeii, and my parents were Vesuvius :)
The water level was pretty low in the lake. All of the rocks that are usually submerged are sun bathing now. I really wanted to try a day shot at Pine Glades. I came here for two days and noticed the difference in what a day makes. The first day I came here the wind was blowing pretty hard, so the water wasn't calm. Plus, it was during sunset and the sky didn't have any clouds. I came back the next day and it was a different story. This time I arrived around 9:00 a.m. and the water was calm and the sky had some amazing clouds.
I also noticed the small gator (in the photo) both days. The first day it didn't want anything to do with me. The second day it seemed he got use to me and wanted to hang out. So, I took this picture of him and the amazing landscape.
