The Sahara Sands were making their yearly appearance

again after coming across the Atlantic from Africa. The sand

in the atmosphere makes the sunsets a little more intense.

When the tide is out small and large areas of pools are left visable with rocks dotted here and there which give this scene a look of the lunar landscape and of course give reflections of the nab.

 

Enjoy your weekend everyone

This was our last night on the ship as we were steaming NW directly toward the Florida Coast, and the sunset in the west was directly ahead of the bow. Almost as if the captain pointed the ship directly at the setting sun! A magical sunset at sea developed. Magnificent! And we were headed straight at it! Was pretty windy, but absolutely incredible for the dozen or so of us out on the bow witnessing this. A truly awesome sea-sunset. Spectacular! Thank you for looking.

Close-up view of beavertail cactus, Death Valley National Park.

 

Many of the photographs that I brought back from Death Valley last week feature the grand, immense scale of the landscape — which is only nature given the, well, grand, immense scale of the landscape of the place. Today I’ll take a break from those images and look share something on much smaller scale — a cactus-scape, if you will. This is a very close view of a small portion of a beavertail cactus. As I worked on landscape photography in this location I realized that these cacti were everywhere, so I soon switched to a different camera with a macro lens.

 

This subject may bring up the question: will this be a “super-bloom” year? I don’t have a definitive answer to that, but I’ll share a few observations. I have heard that above-average rainfall in about the November time frame supports those extraordinary spring blooms. That did not happen this year. But there was rain — quite heave and even damaging rain — much earlier in the season, and there was some additional rainfall during the December-January period. I did see some very young shoots of new plants already starting to pop up in a few promising areas. My bet? No super-bloom, but more of a good to better-than-average year for wildflowers.

The theme is the hermetical law of correspondence (we exist in all planes, astral as well as physical) I discovered the scape_lands in the urban environments, the streets of Berlin.

At the Shin Tsung exit of the bridge is an historic street with more than three centuries of history. Besides admiring an old temple, visitors can enjoy traditional foods in local shops.

Here is a much more unusual than normal pose from a Yellow-Collared Scape Moth. You seldom get to see the wings open...at least I haven't.
