Re: Aloe Vera

Maris, I am watching this plant in the hope I get the right conditions for most of the flowers to be open at the same time.

Maris, Charlotte Pass has never looked so inviting; very nice.

Re: Full Moon, Sunshine Beach.

Almost an abstract image in disguise, reeeeeeeealy nice. Sunshine beach illuminated by a full moon, through a red filter; one assumes the exposure could almost be long enough to invite Mr and Mrs reciprocity to the party. :D The shadow detail in the foreground looks good on the screen, one wonders h...
