I checked my usual haunts and explored a road just off it. Found this cooperative one. Made the trip worth the effort. Image was uncropped :)
As the light of the setting sun turned the grass around the heathland pool golden, the toads continued to make their amorous calls - which I'm certain would have continued well into the night. Spawning only just under-way, they had much to occupy their time ... ;-)
it was just a play on words :-)

... The very purpose of religion is to control yourself, not to criticize others. Rather, we must criticize ourselves. How much am I doing about my anger? About my attachment, about my hatred, about my pride, my jealousy?...

When the sun shines on these the tree looks quite red. The first time I saw them I thought the tree was diseased but a few days later they were releasing loads of pollen.
The genus Pan consists of two extant species: the common chimpanzee and the bonobo. Taxonomically, these two ape species are collectively termed panins; however, both species are more commonly referred to collectively using the generalized term chimpanzees, or chimps. Together with humans, gorillas, and orangutans they are part of the family Hominidae (the great apes, or hominids). Native to sub-Saharan Africa, common chimpanzees and bonobos are currently both found in the Congo jungle, while only the common chimpanzee is also found further north in West Africa. Both species are listed as endangered. Chimpanzees and bonobos are equally humanity's closest living relatives. As such, they are among the largest-brained and most intelligent primates: they use a variety of sophisticated tools and construct elaborate sleeping nests each night from branches and foliage. Their learning abilities have been extensively studied. 60741
I very rarely take a wildlife shot where I don't need to crop it in some way - either to better frame the subject or remove some unwanted part of the scene - but I think this is one of them.

Rain, rain and more on the way.
An uncropped frame from my pre-war, uncoated Russian FED10 50mm f3.5 collapsible lens @ f9. Not quite enough dof at this aperture for sharp rendering of the flowering shrub bottom right, but I reckon this old lens has done OK with the rest.

Fish ponds? Reality is difficult to tell from above. They don't appear like rice paddies or at least there are no discernible rows of rice. What is obvious is that they were drying up as it is summer season in Makassar these days. Without a doubt, landscapes look different when you are not on the ground.
