Oooh are they two different things?I was thinking Morons is a kind of religion.

Virgil, those pictures are incredible. I think that I will put Utah on my list of places to see next. Thanks for that wonderful display of nature.

Wow Virgil and all! The pictures are great.
I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew.
is this magic?
wow!
A few shots and don't be squemish:
My daughter's tree frog Bob and Anole: Lime
A grumpy Bob desides he's had enough picture taking!
A n eerie centipede...
My daughter's gecko, Crocky, showing new tail growth.
My daughter holds a ring-neck snake she just caught.
A spotted salamander. Virginia is said to have the most kinds of salamanders in the world.
A Silver Salamander.
A Red Back Salamander.
This may look like a lizard, but it's actually a Red Eft Salamander. And it isn't supposed to exist where I took this picture. Hummmm.
This shot would make several ghost sites go wild, but orbs don't do much for me. Inside a cave about a mile from the house. Shot by my son of his friend. The eerie part is that there is no water drip, and he isn't stirring up dust, and they always seemed to follow this guy. A note the blue orb. In blow-ups, you can see that it moved during the camera shot. Like I say, obs don't do much for me, but it is an interesting shot!

Pen, those photographs are wonderful, you are a fantastic photographer! As for the orbs, those always fascinate me, though I don't know what to make of them, either.

Nice shots, Pen and Virgil.
@Pen, those pics add more color and variety to the natural scenerios going on, nothing to be squeamish of i guess.
I wish I had a digi cam too
Anyway I'll try to get one soon, looking for tuitions to take already.

Hey Pen! I wonder how your daughter could hold a snake! They are poisonous! But interesting pictures anyway.

Hahahahaha Bob is really funny looking.
Nay, we only have two types of posions snakes in these mountains: Rattlesnakes and Copperheads. Everyone in the family knows to leave them alone! A Ring-Neck won't even bite. Blacksnakes will if you aren't careful, but the whole family are well-versed in snake catching. I need to scan some of my old shots. That why the Red Eft shot is different. I took it with my Pentax, not my digital, and scanned it in. My Pentax is all manual settings and a lot of different lenses.Originally Posted by Pensive
Glad you like them!

I really wished that I could figure out the camera my auntie gave me (with all those cool lenses and such) -- you make it look so cool, Pen.

Today was eventful. Just to show you where my kids get their insan..., ah, Odd habits, here's three shots. The garter snake bit, but caught only a fingernail, too tough to pierce. It is fat either because it ate well, or was a female full of little ones (they give live birth.) My son caught this one as he got off work.
That's me, folks!
Calm and at rest on my arm.
Release, and have a nice day!
