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!

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
