One of many orchid varieties in the greenhouse.

SRO 07.15.08

At first glance, this just looks like a really cool, old street lamp.
Upon closer inspection, though, note the hornet's nest where the light bulb
would normally be. Trippy, eh?


In addition to the picture or two I posted at D.C. Confidential for today, these are a few of the rest of the pictures I took on my walk yesterday evening.

Young bamboo or tall grass?


Future horse chestnut...


Alternative sunset...


Me and my shadow, strolling down the nature path...
