76 Jul 25 Comment Trey, I knew someone would ask that. It was a while ago and I just don't remember, sorry.

76 Jul 25 Comment Beautiful colors. Tripod with what speed? Jul 17th
76 Jul 25 Comment Macro and focus stacking. Yet more to study and learn. That's what's so great about photography. My next effort is going to be lightning with MIOPS, on a photography workshop at the Grand Canyon. We were to stay on the North Rim. I digress. Beautiful shot, full of color and detail. Jul 17th
76 Jul 25 Comment Nice PP. The red fence doesn't bother me, it's part of the story. Did you intentionally change the color of the house? It looks like with a couple of jacks, the house could be good as new. It's fortunate that we aren't experiencing climate change. Jul 17th
76 Jul 25 Comment Your image matches your narrative, or the other way around. I had never heard of it, so here's Goggle:

Mayapple is unique in that It has only 2 leaves and 1 flower, which grows in the axil of the leaves. The large, twin, umbrella-like leaves of mayapple are showy and conspicuous. They remain closed as the stem lengthens, unfolding 6-8 inches across when the plant has reached its 1-1 1/2 ft. height. The solitary, nodding, white to rose-colored flower grows in the axil of the leaves and has 6-9 waxy white petals, with many stamens. The nodding fruit is a large, fleshy, lemon-shaped berry.

Mayapple colonizes by rhizomes, forming dense mats in damp, open woods. The common name refers to the May blooming of its apple-blossom-like flower. Although the leaves, roots, and seeds are poisonous if ingested in large quantities, the roots were used as a cathartic by Native Americans. The edible, ripe, golden-yellow fruits can be used in jellies. The alternate popular name "Mandrake" rightly belongs to an unrelated Old World plant with a similar root.

I trust you knew all this. Thanks for the nice photo and education!		 Jul 17th
76 Jul 25 Comment A lot of my friends have gotten into infrared. Until this photo it never grabbed me. So what makes this such a good infrared subject? It's a beautiful shot. Jul 17th
