Dad recently cleared the pond after it got neglected for a while (seriously, ducks walked on the surface) and I’ve now verified the fish survived and they didn’t adapt to the environment by developing legs or shovel hands. It did mean that a whole bunch of water lily rhizomes got pulled out, and I was able to take pictures. Man, these are fascinating and creepy. Some of them look like they have faces screaming out from them. Nature is very, very freaky, and my camera is acting suspiciously strangely today. Seriously, these triffids host the souls of the damned. See the others on Flickr if you want to risk demonic possession of your computer, phone or tablet.
I have other photos (I’m attempting to replicate the accidental glowing marbles in higher resolution, and results are… mixed), but need to sort through them and play with them some more. I also have a stash of sea shells that I need to take pictures of, too. In all honesty the heat is making me not want to do anything, but hopefully the heatwave is ending this week and we’ll get some more acceptable temperatures that don’t leave my brain resembling mush.
