Star of Bethlehem (flower)

The name of this flower is appropriate for this week.


I got some new software, can you tell? Stay tuned.

Sun Dog

This is the one year anniversary for this image, taken from my back yard.
It's what is known as a "Sun Dog", when the sun and high clouds are at just the right angle to cause the ice crystals in the cloud to reflect so brightly. Here the real sun is on the right. There is often a second Sun Dog on the other side of the sun but the clouds were too thin for a good reflection.

Autumn Cherry Blossoms

What a surprise to see Cherry blossoms at the end of November but here they are.
They are a variety that occasionally bloom in warm spells. Just a few here and there.
