Arvo... Autumn shadows on my favourite beach..
You're lucky to be close to a beach. I haven't been near a beach for at least 20 years.
Yes I am lucky..one of the reasons 90% of us Aussies cling to the coast line to be near the sea..
I could never live inland..

I found a 1 gallon bowl at a local thrift store for $5 and decided to set it up for some shrimp.
In my case, when it comes to shrimp....
Now I'm hungry and it's over 2 hours until lunch...
Morning...or in our case a prawn cocktail..yum love prawns ..
I buy a kilo of them and just sit down and eat them straight from the shell...
Not my photo though I wish it was..
Here they are pretty well always served in their shells and it's up to the person dining to shell them and tear off the heads and limbs.
Same here unless it's at a dinner etc where it is done for you..
Nothing better getting a kilo of prawns and sitting down at the beach and eating them as you peel them..
But you shouldn't go hungry, having a house full of fish. LOL
Tuesday evening there was a rain shower followed by a double rainbow. Sky under ii was bright pink and purple Picture was taken in Winchester VA.
Morning charger...what brilliant photos...
That's a rare and lucky shot.
"What in your life is calling you, When all the noise is silenced, The meetings adjourned... The lists laid aside, And the Wild Iris blooms By itself In the dark forest... What still pulls on your soul?" ~ Rumi
A lovely flower, a superb image.
Thanks!
Main and secondary rainbows made a full arc.
Would a wide-angle lens have captured it in one shot?
Yes, I only had my phone camera.
Maybe A.Mac can meld the two images into one complete one.
Last nights launch from the Cape...

Morning...just took this at the back door....My morning ritual is feeding the Maggies (Magpies)...they roll up for mince and they are extremely intelligent and brilliant warblers..
They have been rolling up for generations now and they never swoop me but they do at nesting time to other people..plus the memorise you as well..
Being swooped is a rite of passage here...
Not my photo..
The first magpie I ever saw in my life was in Beijing. It didn't swoop me.

Morning Kavika..do you get tornadoes in Florida?
The sky certainly looks ominous..
Hi shona, yes we get tornados in Florida usually they follow a hurricane onto land.
Hmmm just what you need..so you may dodge a hurricane then get cleaned up by a tornado? Pass..
The area of Florida I live in rarely gets hurricanes, and if one gets this far inland it's mostly just rain little if any destruction involved.

I guess you could say that the rider is "in the pink".
Morning...last of my tomatoes until summer rolls around again...
They look wonderful. I love tomatoes, eat them almost every day. I think I inherited that from my father - he would eat a tomato like we eat an apple.
enjoy them, I have a few green ones forming in the greenhouse and anxiously waiting for them to ripen
They are the best tomatoes I have ever had..no idea what variety as they were self sown at a friend's property 100 kms away...they all started popping up at her front gate..
She gave me 4 plants I gave two away just as well..the plants grew 7 foot high and went over the neighbours fence.. thought they must have been mutant..
Reminded me of a film title..attack of the killer tomatoes...
sounds like Some kind of volunteer cherry tomatoes. You don't know what you will get with volunteers but sometimes get a really good plant
LOL. I used that movie for a question on one of my quizzes a while ago.
Today, May 4th is Star Wars Day. So for the 'boss' (A.Mac) and all who have posted images...

Your concepts are unique and deserve the descriptive word "creative".
It's now Monday in California, so the Creative Arts 3 day weekend that started with Leonard Cohen is going to end with him as well. Thanks to all who contributed...
