Shot this on iPhone 12 in JPEG, and edited in Lightroom Mobile app. Wish I shot it in RAW though. View attachment 1158757

Well, I planned on posting my 'dewy web in the morning' picture a few days ago. And then this beautiful picture is posted and for a short while I thought I can't post my shot. But that is not in the spirit of things around so here goes.

A small creek deep in south Mexico City, in a park called “springing fountains”

I think it was taken on a small canon SD40.

Snapped this in town yesterday. The dynamic range on the iPhone 12 is really good.

The Lockhart Tavern in Haywards Heath or, should I say, The Lockdown Tavern now!

Fall'N

X100t f5.6 680 ISO200 - The park reopens. Lots of people. The outter section of the park; one of the larger trees damaged (partially fallen) from the ice storm. Displaying vibrant fall amber leaves.

Fall really is my favorite time of the year

Spring opening. The cavern goes back about a mile. Must be a certified cave diver to explore.

What I believe to be a golden eagle circling in the breeze yesterday. I had to switch lenses, so I only got the shot just as he passed through a tree.

You’d have to pay me money to go in there. Nice photo though.

If you own more than one lens, you always have the wrong one attached or not with you! It’s photography law!

Decided to go a little dramatic with this one:

I don't SCUBA, so I don't qualify. Of note though, that is the beginning of the half mile spring run to the river and the water exiting the spring is a constant 72F year round. In the next 2-3 months as temperatures drop cooling the river, hundreds of manatee will seek refuge in the warmer waters of the spring run, sometimes coming up as far as the spring itself. They cut off general swimming/snorkeling and kayaking/canoeing in the spring run when manatee are present. Harassing manatee is prohibited year round, and if present, have to allow them to come to you for any interaction.

These kinds of places and wrecks are what make diving fun. There are only so many times you can look at familiar settings before they get old. Reefs are beautiful, but I'd rather explore the unknown.
