The clown fish is in the photo and here is the story quoted from the person who took the photo : " Clown fish are amazing, the way they live with the anemone in a symbiotic relationship.
Back in the early 90s when I was living in Hong Kong, my wife (then girlfriend) went diving in the New Territories. It was her first dive in Hong Kong and she saw this lone clown fish and as the fish saw her and it started dancing around her and in front of her mask, as she says "it was dancing like a butterfly, sting like a bee". As she looked around she was quite saddened when she saw how impacted the marine life was in Hong Kong as there were no other clown fish in the immediate area. She ends the story with the hope that the clown fish finds a mate and it's anemone.
She still tells this story."

Red
It is interesting how camera lenses can emphasize the primary subject and produce an out-of-focus background.

PixQuote:
"The man who lives in his eyes is continually confronted with scenes and spectacles that compel his attention or admiration and demand an adequate reaction. To pass on without pause is impossible and to continue after purely mental applause is unsatisfying: some real tribute must be paid. Photography, to many of its addicts, is a convenient and simple means of discharging these ever-recurring debts to the visual world."

Nostalgia
Words by the photographer :
" Friends.....they come and they go for all kinds of reasons in life. But the memories last forever. Thats why i love photos because they freeze those good times for eternity.....
Last night a friend gave me a blast from the past. So excuse me for having a "nostalgic day". "

"A magnificent tree, great clouds and a warm setting sun...
What more could a photographer ask for?"
Those were the words of the brilliant photographer who took this fascinating shot.

Happy Valentines Day -- to you.
quotes from the photographer :
" There was a stiff, cold wind raking the reservoir. There were up to 9 swans interacting, irritably. I prayed for one of them to rear up and flap his wings threateningly. I was well positioned for the light, and several times it looked likely. Meanwhile some pairs of swans often took a "heart" pattern. I like this one for the back lit translucent feathers.
The wind was blowing from right to left, and the right swan's feathers were being blown upwards by the wind. The left swan, like others, puffed up her feathers facing the wind, and it seemed to help them in some way. Any ideas? "

Robin Trivia Day
Note by the Photographer : " The American Robin, like many thrushes, has a beautiful and complex song, and in contrast to other thrushes, its song is almost continuous. Its song is commonly described as a cheerily carol song. The song is made of discrete units, often repeated, and spliced together into a string with brief pauses in between. The song varies regionally, and its style varies by time of day. American Robins will often be among the last songbirds singing as the evening sets in. "

"Sorry, No Time to Chat!"
It is running on water very fast to give itself the power to take off , I guess.
do we all need to work harder or maybe smarter to give ourselves the power to take off too?!

Got milk?
Note from the person who shot this gorgeous photo:
"These four cuties live in a private shelter for homeless cats; the one with the red collar has already found a home. They were looking at some humans they didn't know that landed on their place all at once, and were very curious about us visitors..."

City of Arts and Sciences
The person who took the photo says :
"City of Arts and Sciences is an ensemble of five areas designed by valencian architect Santiago Calatrava and builded in Valencia, Spain. And is an impressive example of modern architecture.
- Opera house and performing arts centre.
- Imax cinema and planetarium.
- Walkway / Garden.
- Science museum.
- Open-air oceanographic park.
Santiago Calatrava was born in Valencia, Spain in 1951. He graduated from the Institute of Architecture in Valencia and from the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. Calatrava opened his own architecture and engineering office in Zurich.
As both an architect and an engineer, Calatrava easily identifies with both disciplines. He often creates innovative works that depend on a firm grasp of both the creative and structural aspects of design. His skills as an engineer allow him to create sculptural surfaces and unusual spaces.
He was selected to design a new train and subway station at the World Trade Center site in New York. Calling Calatrava's structures ‘open and organic’, The New York Times said that the new terminal will evoke the kind of uplifting spirituality that is needed on Ground Zero. "

Perfect Reflection
Water was very clear to the extent that those 3 ships were perfectly reflected .
likewise when the human souls become clear they will for sure reflect the morals of life in a similarly perfect manner.
