David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Travels around the world
Solitary Small Island in the Gulf of Mexico off the Coast of Belize. Image taken with a Nikon D3s camera and 70-300 mm VR lens (ISO 200, 300 mm, f/5.6, 1/1000 sec). If you look close, there is a shelter. I’ve always wondered if someone lives there.
Green Kingfisher in Belize. Image taken with a Nikon D3s and 70-300 mm VR lens (ISO 400, 300 mm, f/8, 1/250 sec).
Being stared down by a green kingfisher. Image taken with a Nikon D3s camera and 70-300 mm VR lens (ISO 720, 300 mm, f/8, 1/250 sec)
I noticed something bright red in the woods when driving into Yosemite National Park. I went back to investigate and found these three strange growths that I had never seen before. Initially I thought they were some type of mushroom. The flowers however gave it away as a plant. Michael identified it as Snow Plant (Sarcodes sanguinea). A parasitic plant that lacks chlorophyll. It derives its sustenance and nutrients from a fungi that attach to roots of trees. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 45 mm f/2.8 PC-E lens (ISO 100, 45 mm, f/8, 1/13 sec).
Young Girl on a Kick-Scooter in Parc de Bercy. Late Spring Photowalk in Paris. Image taken with a Leica X2 camera (ISO 100, 24 mm, f/11, 1/15 sec).
