Lovely shots (I had to look it up to find out where Orange, TX is), great colours and I like the Shadowy Path shot a lot. Thanks for sharing these.

Hi Ella, the shadowy path is also one of my favorites. I was trying to find a word to describe the pineapple and "mini" came to mind. Maybe a dwarf is more appropriate? . Anyway, it was that small hehehe

Hi Jen, yes finally! There were literally hundreds of photos to sort. I'll try to post some more from other places we visited.......
"Hydro-bokeh" now that is a new term for me..... thanks
