Thank you. The subject matter makes it easy to capture good shots, even for this novice photographer.

What a heavy and yet beautiful sky, all shot with dusky gold, and bright gold, too. And how tiny the boat seems.

Is that a wild aloe? Amazing!

It was a beautiful sunset, in that stormclouds were migrating onto land at the same time the sun was sinking into the sea.

Yes, that's aloe arborescens. It has orange, cone shaped flowers. More pictures here, if you want to see them in full bloom.

Yes, very much so. We watched the sunset together on the last night of my son's (too short) visit.

Color!

Winter here in Pennsylvania tends to be very gray and beige. (If it snows, black-and-white.) The return of color is one of the most welcome parts of spring for me.

Color, indeed!

When I lived in a snowy, cold climate, I craved color more than I can say. I used to visit greenhouse nurseries, just so I could fill my senses with beautiful growing things.

So glad to share with you, PapaDan. I hope you're seeing the earliest glimmers of springtime where you live.

Such welcome sights after our snowy, mostly-gray day. Thank you for sharing the beauty, friend.

I'm always so excited to come back here with visual goodies--things that caught my eye or captured my imagination-- so that I can share them with you. And in the same way, I love scrolling through my friends' blogs. ooohing and aaahing over everyone's pictures. LOVE your bird photos so much, Tracy, and the insights/observations you add to those posts.
