Taken at Brenton Point State Park in Newport, RI.
My lovely wife and I went to Newport, RI to celebrate our 15th anniversary. It was a lovely time by the sea with some amazing fog and scenery, all put to shame by the beautiful woman whom I am lucky to share my life with.
The infinite amount of wildlife of the “Wee World” (mostly insects and such) plus flowers and plants of a wide range here provides constant opportunities to learn and study about the nature of each species and how they are interrelated to their surroundings. Furthermore, the simple appeal of the meadows sprawling with endless hidden, behind the scene gems by just LOOKING a bit more carefully, enables one with incredible special photo opportunities.
The late, Doris Duke, had left a wonderful legacy in converting her magnificent estate into a Natural Wildlife Preserve for the public’s education and enjoyment. The paths throughout the estate offer such splendid scenery. One is forever exploring, always seeing something subtly beautiful. There are always pleasant surprises, from the general scenery to the world of birds and other wildlife, including tiny insects and flowers that are quite enjoyable to observe and study. The bucolic nature of the preserve is so relaxing—akin to meditating while experiencing the landscape. The beauty of visiting Duke Farms is that so many incredible views are there simply by absorbing the surroundings.
Besides the wonderful diversity of nature’s jewels, Doris Duke has left a part of her legacy through her passion for art—well situated throughout the preserve is a collection of glorious sculptures and fabulous examples of supreme stonework and design in the bridges, old ruins of enormous barns and stables, and a variety of other structures. The old Hay Barn ruin with its fabulous sculpture garden is truly a favorite of ours, for each and every statue seems to possess a spirit and sense of life. The landscape and backdrop can alter the mood, accordingly, depending on the time of day and seasonal changes in particular. So, spotting new and fascinating wildlife (both animals and plants) and art never ceases to add to the experience.
The Pink Lilies popped this morning. Has kind of a funny pink/white splotchy look on the pedals. See larger version for lots of detail.

I keep screwing up these live show panoramics, but I wanted to post this one still. If they come through your town you HAVE to see them. You will not be disappointed.

How can it feel, this wrong,
This moment,
How can it feel, this wrong,
Oh, can't anybody see,
We've got a war to fight.
