โ€œSandpiper Sunsetโ€

From my old stomping grounds in Ventura, California. After boogie boarding, there was always time to hang out for the sunset. #EastCoastKin #WestCoastKin #Rincon #SolimarBeach

Clear lake's water is remarkably clear, allowing visibility to the bottom (over 100 feet in some spots). large pine trees and fall foliage are reflected in the lakeโ€™s water. blue sky overhead.

Clear Lake in the Willamette National Forest near Sisters is beautiful and perfect for #StunDay. We rented a row boat and were out on the lake for hours. 2018

A photo of a soft looking, tan, buff, white, and dark brown moth on the hood of a red car. The moth is facing the lower right. It's antenna, legs, leading edges of wings, and shoulders are white. It's legs are splayed out to grip the car hood. It's antenna are facing forward and sweep off to either side.
The wings sweep back, and together form a 90ยฐ angle from the head. They are intricately patterned in brown and cream shades, and textured reminiscent of tree bark. They do not meet in the middle, nor cover the abdomen. From the small white head area, there is a sudden change to a deep brown stripe between the white shoulders, that widens as it goes back toward the abdomen. The abdomen is a soft cream color, and the segments of the abdomen are visible.
A light source behind the moth to the upper left, casts it's shadow on the surface of the red car hood in front of it, almost making an "X" shape.
The car hood shows an even coating of dust all over it's surface, and a few highlights along the edge of the hood close to the left margin of the image.

Last night, while out and about, this little vision of nature came to rest on my car! I had a chance to pull over slowly and get out for a picture, then gently placed it out of harms way.

For #MacroMonday I had an artichoke that was advancing toward blossoming. So much so I couldnโ€™t cut out the center to stuff it thus I steamed it. This is what came off the heart. The structure was quite different from normal.

For the #Gratitude theme in the #BlueSkyArtShow first it was Muslims then the Christians who displayed gratitude towards the divine. The Giralda was a minaret then a bell tower, now a tourist destination.
