It is safe to say that fall is winding down so I will have to stop posting so many leaf photos soon. I need to get this one out there before it gets too far into winter so here goes. This one red leaf on the lawn struck me as it contrasted the other mostly yellow leaves on the grass.
The tomato, your nemesis and mine. Ok, maybe just mine. I have to admit I am not a fan of this fruit, but I found these colorful and interesting enough to put aside my personal prejudice and take this shot at the San Francisco Farmer’s Market. I hope you enjoy it, I have to look away now…
Your friend and mine, the lionfish. Just don’t touch him, he is quite poisonous. These guys were everywhere when I was scuba diving by the Similan Islands off Thailand.
It has been very hot here, so I wanted to post something red. This is one of the daylilies from my yard. The red petals really get the rest of the flower to pop.
I was at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco for Outsidelands this past weekend. They had these cool windmills setup that were lit up at night. The bright red light was really eye catching against the night sky!
While walking around the California State Capitol one day I noticed some nice bottle brush that I thought would make a nice photograph. There was only one bee there, and I caught him just as he was getting ready to fly away. Certainly made it more interesting than the bottle brush alone.
While this big red button looked like it had not been in use recently, I didn’t trust myself to push it. I guess some mysteries are better left unknown.
I have mixed feelings about the California State Fair. On one hand it is an event full of colors and excitement, on the other hand it has a lot going on and can be a bit much to handle with all of the chaos. In honor of me not going to the State Fair this year, I’m posting some old pictures of when I did go. This one is of a ride called the Sky Flyer. Some things I do love about the state fair are all of the old style lights and signs, and this ride had plenty of that!
Today isn’t my birthday, but I started this series close to my actual birthday. These are the cupcakes I was treated to. Delicious!
