Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.

Botanical Center Visit
My wife and I escaped Iowa by going into the Des Moines Botanical Center. At the end of our visit we were gazing down at the water feature with koi, and this beauty floated into my lens view. I have enough koi photos to bore you all for a very long time.
Croton, is the name of this plant. One can buy them and take them home but they don't like it inside of a home with winter heat. They do well in the very humid and warm botanical center.

Hi Larry
my garden at home in Noosa and here in Kauai is full of crotons, of varied colours and leaf shapes and all bright and cheerful...
Happy days

I tried to have a cronton plant atr home but with no succes. I can see a lot in Martinique island where I shall go in next October.
All the lovely colors of fish and plants are such a welcomed change from white!
