These pallets were stacked up at my work and I noticed where one of them came from. Pretty fascinating how pallets travel around like that.

^ is that a natural vignette? It creates a nice focus.

One of my fav cities. I've spent many a time visiting my cousins on Kings Road, a bit north of Toronto.

Yes and no, the light pollution does taper off there because it's just lake Ontario to the righthand side, but I added a bit more of a vignette to emphasize it.

Your models will be expecting payment - better bring a frog or snake next time.

Finally had one to share!
This little guy (or gal, not sure how to tell) was crawling across my lab notebook at work this morning. I picked them up in a little capped vial to take to our warehouse where my labmate wouldn’t squish them.

Not as photogenic as everyone else’s I admit!

I always go with female whenever I deal with Shelob

:thumbsup: .....Looks like my woods. I've cleared walking paths and pocket gardens. with seating, throughout. Tons of deer. One doe had triplet bambies this year. First time I've seen that.

it was out at our arboretum in Houston, it's a light walking/hiking trail that's got a lot of critters in it. Ended up making it there at around 6:30A, saw an armadillo the minute we got out of our car but I didn't have my camera out before he ran off!

Fujifilm X100V

I used to be really into photography but sold my old Canon rebel before I went to college. I'm trying to get back into it as a hobby, so figured I'd pick up a nice little versatile street/landscape cam. I love it so far

I have an opinion what should be done if that dillo leaves the arboretum grounds, bane of my yard and I relocate several a year.

Took a trip to my hometown to hunker down for the storm. The first photo is Naegelin's Bakery, which is the oldest continuously operating bakery in the state of Texas. It's been open since 1868, churning out pastries and bread.

The second photo is Founder's Oak. It's a MASSIVE Live Oak tree that's estimated to have been planted in 1700. The site nearby was home to a Spanish mission which I tried to get pictures of the only remnants of but there were too many people and I didn't have my big mask with me :ack:

Just took this a few minutes ago. Mr. Geffen is in Bar Harbor this morning. It is just slightly shorter than many cruise ships.

Edit: Making sure I am correct in which yacht this is, I found this cool yacht tracking website. It’s only gonna show Bar Harbor while it is here. https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ai.../mmsi:319011000/imo:8982307/vessel:RISING_SUN

I have a friend here at work whose ex-wife is dating a local multimillionare and they've essentially been living on their yacht travelling along the gulf coast to avoid people. Wish that I could get in on that grift
