Mark deliberately cultivates plants in his Bedford, Texas backyard to attract butterflies and bees and regularly ventures out to capture images of the little critters. He’s been honing his skills for more than a decade. We always enjoy visiting his Flickr Album for great examples of macro photography. Karen joined him this afternoon with the long lens on the Sony A5100. And this evening the two of them were out on the patio with phones trying to capture a lightning strike image!
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
