Picture-A-Week 2019 - Week 34

[pierces]

Pictures taken between Monday, August 19 and Sunday, August 25.

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Trying to walk the bug out of my system in rather overcast and flat light. Even the birds were mostly in hiding.

Willy wagtail, a bit blurred but fun

I’m still trying to work out how to properly edit this, but am happy with the capture.

Got a few pictures before the storms hit.

 

The giant white Hibiscus -- the few that are left -- finally bloomed:

Not many morning glories left:

Spent some time in Monterey for the Rolex Motorsport Reunion.  This car, Porsche 904, was beautiful.  The lady who drove it in the races was having a nice time and not thrashing an iconic car.

The Picture-A-Week back in week 26 was of the excellent little speakeasy at Citrus Grove Distillery that we discovered. I shared the photo with family and was immediately told that this was a mandatory item on the to-do list when my son planned to visit later in the summer. Fast-forward to now and  here I am taking a photo of Dan’s complimentary flight that comes with the membership fee. The chai spiced rum, whiskey, ginger liqueur and their excellent vodka impressed him. We ended up visiting twice during the week and spent more time talking that we did drinking. I guess that a welcoming environment and a fine flammable beverage makes it easy to speak. Etymology moment...

 

Speaking Easily

Took a while to get around to the photos from the last few weeks, with some busy work, busy work around home, and busy hurricane week...so I finally got around to downloading and sorting some shots from Sunday, Aug 25 in the wetlands and in the backyard:

 

Flock of ibis flying over:

 

Pig frog resting in the water:

 

Yellow-crowned night heron, trying to find a shady spot in the cypress trees to nap, but always opening those orange eyes at the slightest sound of disturbance nearby:

 

Blue jay on my lightpost in the back yard:

 

And another hiding in my hibiscus:
