I love the first shot - but then I love taking photos more or less straight up, like that! And the second one, with the steeple blocking the sun!!! It's a beautiful church, and you must have had a ball, photographing it!

Jane, and Violet Sky, I love taking shots at weird angles, thanks for commenting.

I was there again today, Jo...stopped by Cafe Noetica after getting my Japanese encephalitis and rabies vaccine ( felt I needed a reward ). Alex asked where you were! I told him it wasn't the same being in that neighborhood without you but I was making a sacrifice since it was on my way home.

Very unusual shots, Jo, with some great architectural detail. And a brilliant blue cloudless sky is not very common either.

Beautiful shots, but the second one is "just right" with the sun behind the steeple. Mickie ;)

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
