my veins run like the river amazon
I came back from a walk to the farm around 8am. I noticed this beautiful plant growing out of some rubble near the tractors, in the middle of bricks and sand.
The sunlight was filtering in from behind and I instantly set my camera to Super Macro and manual setting.
My veins run deep like the Amazon river,
my sentiments flow to the right and left
many tangents and many directions
i was born before the river ran dry
i died before the coming of the waterfall
pay attention to the small details, please.
pay attention to these small details, please.
the world is fleeting…

My photo for the day. Because it has been raining on and off for the past couple of weeks I have ran out of flower models, a lot of them have dropped their petals or are a soggy mess. Its a fern frond this afternoon as I have no other suitable models.Had to run it through neat image to get rid of the noise.
green lizard in a red bucket

One morning I woke up and on the terrace in my red bucket there was a green lizard.
I left her free within two minutes, but first I asked her to pose for me. And she was happy to do it.
