Deep Cove
When my family and I went there the rain was pouring. It is one of these more rainy places here. Given the drier than normal seasons seeing the rain is a bit relaxing and nostalgic.
The place is beautiful but way too much populated nowadays - even in the rain.

Lovely set! How do you make the multi-row image layout in a post? I remember reading about it before but now can’t find it…

Thanks! I was using the wrong search terms…
I just noticed an interesting icon next to the percentage values and gave it a try

Catahoula Lake pastels
Golden hour wasn’t too golden today (although sunset delivered – too bad I was already driving at that point!), but there were some pleasant muted colors down low in the west. It made for a decent minimalist image.
A funny sidebar…
As I was getting ready for this shot, I noticed what looked like a critter’s head / jaw of some sort bobbing in the water about a meter or so off the edge. There were little eddies showing around it, so I figured it was possibly a snapping turtle or even alligator just hanging around waiting for . But something didn’t look right and I couldn’t nail down the species of critter. I have to admit I was a little … ahem … “aware” of the possibility of said critter taking an interest in me and suddenly emerging from the water!
Turns out I was totally wrong. It was the fearsome, deadly, DDD: Discarded Duck Decoy! So much for my identification skills in the fading light!

Mooned by a decoy by Len

Took a walk with my camera late yesterday to deliberately get out on a day off from work. Hot and somewhat humid, but late afternoon light was good.

Is that a Schlüsselblume?
Was? 
Sorry, I have no idea. I like to take pictures of flowers but they are not my thing otherwise.

No probs.
I don’t speak German, but I used to know someone from that part of the world, and their favorite flower was the Schlüsselblume. I believe it’s a kind of Primula.

It looks like Primula vulgaris (primrose), which is one of the Schlüsselblume, but not the Echte Schlüsselblume (Primula veris or cowslip)

The Alps illuminated by the setting Sun, as seen from the western side of Zürich. Snapped during our evening walk.

Amazing. Style reminds me of the pencil shading exercise in art class. It is a good fit for the [Capture Challenge] People without people thread and the Showcase category.
