Two of the best hummingbird pics I've ever taken:
Hummer 2.jpg
P1080449 (2).JPG
I could tell you horror stories about my mom and humming birds. It started when one of my siblings ran over the flower bed with a lawn mower. ;Hilarious
He went into hiding for a few weeks.
I love those pics :)

Very nice look at all those zoas.
Asking for a friend;)
What are the most vibrant true to life color zoas you have in any light?
These. These are the florida zoas all healed up. Super bright under 14k light. Even brighter when you get towards 20k.

Top photo - zoas came from Fort Pierce Inlet Jetty.

Bottom Photo - 2 far left came from Fort Pierce Inlet Jetty and rest from Jupiter Inlet rocky bank.

All collected at low tide with them 2' out of the water.

The prettiest in person and brightest are the ones in the bottom pic and far right/middle. The lashes are a glistening gold, skirts are are glittery deep purple, center of skirts are vibrant bright red and the mouths are super hot pink. The photo is taken with an iphone 12 pro and the yellow polyp labs lens. No editing. Still doe snot do any justice for them.

When you guys plan that, let me know - I'm already here
I may or not be headed down to Stuart area in the next few weeks. If I do, it will be for work and I will be on thirds to manage the customer and make sure they leave my guys alone. I have a commercial license and in all honesty, at about 300 bucks for the license, it pays for itself in a good day of collecting. Or at least it does in my sense. Those zoas are well over 300 in my book as they sit now. Not that I will ever sell, as I love them too much, but they are pretty.

I really just need to make day trips of it occasionally. I do actually get days off.

Those are beautiful.

This little clown is growing on me. Will bite my hand off if I stick it in tank but he's got a little routine where he rolls around the garden inspecting most of the shrooms now and even "dusting" them and tiles off if the get a lil dirty :D

Haha Kentucky never had a football team in my day. The basket ball team would oulift them in the gym during the football season! See they are still on course today haha!
I know this post was like a year ago, lol, but I do agree that we have a terrible football team.

Our basketball team on the other hand…

That's cute for sure, but i don't deal well with 5 gram fish thinking it's ok to bite the 200lb hand that feeds it.
