I love shadows and this seemed like a good idea this afternoon - but now I fancy a mcvities hobnob biscuit and they are all gone ....
some lovely patterns when they all fly off but taken with my acer tablet , so no burst mode

A Typical Lao village, they live on the smell of an oily rag , buggers keep smiling though

They live in some pretty challenging terrain as well

I went to Muscat this morning and walked around a park:

Does anyone live there?
were you not tempted to use the old boy as a skiffle board and get a song and dance going?Quote:

I had 2 babies I found in the garden in my observation tank 2 years ago. This fella was a young juvenile at about 12 inches long.
that is a nice park in muscat, good place for a stroll, and clean as, impressed.
Possibly the world's smallest car dealership.

Blue Springs, near Deland, Florida. My son and I spent some of his spring break there. We met a very friendly manatee.
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2014/03/5060.jpg
Wow, that looks great!
Heaven on Earth, especially while school is in session. Water is crystal clear (I like to dive down, sink my face into the spring head and drink) and 22 degrees year-round. Full of fish and other wildlife, including manatees and the biggest blue crabs I've ever seen. The river flows from the spring head to a wild stretch of the St. John's River, and you can drift from the spring head about 400 meters to a swimming platform, run up a well-kept boardwalk back to the head, repeat:

Tarpon and other saltwater fish are also found:

Daffs and hyacinths are all in full bloom at the moment but the wife got excited about some little yellow flower that appeared in one of last years pots....

....dandelions are usually just overlooked.
Trees are in blossom now as well so time to take the new macro lens for a trial....It arrived yesterday and I am really happy with it...:)
^Great as salad, too!
Dandelion and burdock

This is supposed to be good for coughs when made as a tea.

Some forest temple in Cambodia

I remember you used to be able to walk about the ruins - sadly too many abused that, so now there are walkways
Just touching the stone . . . nice feeling, similar to Carthage - walking the paths trodden on for thousands of years.
I digress.
Nice pic
Yeah, the fvcktards ditched me so I rode across https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2014/03/1953.jpgQuote:

Are those type of riding boots waterproof?
Who took this picture then?
No enduro boot is waterproof if completely submerged :)
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2014/04/730.jpg
There were 7 of us on this ride, so plenty of pics all around. I'm hoping Satonic might bang out a ride report for this one- I just don't have time.
Satonic, you know the rules.
Damn, that water is a bit close to too high
