The Spicy Jatropha. A little too soft, but I like the color. It's just a big crop though. I need to break out the macro lenses and play with them again.

Took a trip up to Chicago a few weeks ago and spent some time at Shedd. These pics are from the Jellies exhibit that's there currently. Considering these are from a PnS camera pressed up against the glass, I'm pretty satisfied how these turned out:

We have a lot of birds around here. Over the last couple of years I've turned into a bit of a birder. We have a couple of Great Horned Owls that live in the wooded property behind our neighborhood. There are at least three of them that hang out in our neighbor's sycamore tree at night and hoot away. I love it. I sleep with windows open at night and can hear them singing. Our living room faces the back with 2 sets of double windows near that tree. In the evening it's so soothing listening to them sing.

These guys are so cool the way they swoop down out of the tree and fly over the neighborhood. They have 5 foot wingspans. That tree was nearly 70 feet tall. I say was because the top 20 feet of it broke off last year during a cold front after being weakened by the drought in 2011. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...85397862_o.jpg |
