Patterns

Patterns by Millie Cruz (On and Off) Via Flickr: A not so clear photo of this stingray; the glass was stained with smudges and finger marks. @ Lake Tobias Wildlife Park. Freshwater stingrays live in the Amazon River system and are one of the only rays inhabiting freshwater rather than saltwater. Though docile animals, they are responsible for more injuries to humans each year than any other Amazonian species. These flattened fishes have eyes on the top of their bodies with mouths and gill slits on their undersides. Their tails are typically longer than their disc width and usually have one or more long, saw-like spines behind the pelvic fin. Used for self-defense, the stinger is tipped with barbs that can rip through flesh when withdrawn. Each spine has grooves underneath that contain protein-based venom.

Blanquiverdosa.

Blanquiverdosa. by Jesús Martín Via Flickr: Pontia daplidice es una de las mariposas más fáciles de encontrar por aquí. En este caso posada sobre un cardo yesquero (Echinops ritro), también muy abundante y fotogénico. La composición con esos cardos desenfocados me hubiera gustado más al revés, con la mariposa a la derecha y los cardos desenfocados a la izquierda, pero es lo que había. Trípode y cable disparador. Muchas gracias por vuestro tiempo, saludos.

The way all good fairy tales should end

The way all good fairy tales should end by Kathie McMillan Via Flickr: I SAID I wouldn't adopt one of these poor waterlogged, ragged, taped orphans again, but this one is so full of marvelous Margaret Evans Price illustrations I couldn't resist. Not to mention the endpapers by M.W. "Once Upon aTime, A Book of Old-Time Fairy Tales" edited by Katharine Lee Bates, illustrated mostly by Margaret Evans Price. Copyrighted 1921 by Rand McNally & Company.

Bleeding tooth fungus

Bleeding tooth fungus by Millie Cruz (On and Off) Via Flickr: What is bleeding tooth fungus? Hydnellum peckii is a genus of tooth fungi in the family Bankeraceae (order Thelephorales). One of the better-known species is the unusual pinkish-white Hydnellum peckii, also known as "strawberries and cream" or as the "bleeding tooth fungus" due to the red droplets that appear on the pinkish or whitish fruitbodies. The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping nearby bits of grass and vegetation. Thank you very much for your visit to my photo and for taking your time to comment! Much appreciated!

Convict Lake sunrise
flickr
Convict Lake sunrise by Liang Li Via Flickr: This was a family reunion trip after 4 years, and I took my parents on a roadtrip across California, Nevada, Utah and Arizona. It wasn't a photography oriented trip, but I still managed to find some opportunities to chase the best light around our hotels. This image was taken right at sunrise at Convict Lake in California. I am glad I was able to share this moment with my dad on a cold day!
