These things are rather strange.  Only make their appearance for a short time before loosing their luster and falling off. These two blooms where there when I saw it in the morning, and figured was worth a shot. tomorrow they will have lost their color and would soon fall to the table. such a short existence.

The first attempt at this had camera malfunction and zoom was all messed up. this one turned out rather well.

The pictures are an example of 24 hours between shots

Biked on the Montour Trail today and meet the 500 Mile marker I was shooting for this year.

Now just need to see how many miles can get in for the National Bike Challenge. Currently have 999 points and 3 free beers at OTB Bicycle Cafe.

I got this Red Prayer Plant from amazon back in the start of June.  It has been transplanted twice, this time to something it can really stretch out in.  Apparently I missed the fact that these raise their leaves every night.  I never did like reading lol  It was kind of a shock to me that they all started moving all of a sudden at dusk 🙂

This shot was taken every 10 seconds for like the whole day, I then rendered it at 60 frames per second to make it fluid.
