I saw this flower blooming on the beach along the shore of Lake Cocibolca,
where some of the world's only known freshwater sharks live around the
pristine island of Ometepe in Nicaragua. On this hike I saw two volcanoes,
some ancient petroglyphs, natural springs, lots of flowers, some Brazilian surfers, but no sharks...

Richard Barber pulls up a handful of peanuts as he looks over his crop during harvesting at his farm west of Ocala, Fla. on Thursday, Sept. 18, 2008. Barber, 70, is one of the few remaining large farmers in Marion County. Nationally, the average age of farmers has risen to 59, which shows that fewer young farmers are going into the business. Barber, however, says that he enjoys the peanut farming business. He has been producing crops for the past 42 years in Marion County. "To me this is fun, it's not like really working," he said.

This is my kitty Banyan, who has a craving for my fish Bingo. No, the cat didn't eat the fish!
I had always seen this scenario in cartoons, but not in my kitchen.

Smoke Light by Erica Brough |

I took a bunch of these pictures playing with the smoke in the light. I set the camera exposure
to measure the bright light coming in through the door's window, therefore blacking out everything
else in the room that wasn't as bright. I just think the lens flare and and the rim light on my subject
is really interesting to look at.
