Landscaping

 

Isn't this a nice, colorful landscape?

Some More Murals

 The City of Fort Myers has numerous murals , some of which are hidden from the casual observer, down alleyways or on the sides of buildings that don't catch a lot of attention from hurried passers-by.

This mural shows an imagined historic scene at a pier extending into the Caloosahatchee River.

I didn't see an artist's name.

Fort Myers artists are fond of imagined historic scenes.  Again, I didn't see an artist's name.

Wildlife and nature are also popular themes for Fort Myers natives.  I saw something like "BRNO" as the artist's signature, but I couldn't find anything about an artist with those initials.  Linked to Monday Murals.

Double

A pair of white ibises.

"Double" is the February theme for City Daily Photo participants.  Click here to see other interpretations.

Here are some more.

This is an amazing 1993 image by Roger Ballen of distinctive twin miners in South Africa.

My daughter's weimaraners aren't twins, but they lived together since the older was six months old.  The one behind left us a couple of years ago.  Lola, in the front, is still with us at 14 years old.

The granddaughters aren't twins either, but sometimes they seem like it.

The older granddaughter was born in South Africa just days after the daughter's friend also had a baby.  Their parents got them together when they were just weeks old.

Pink

 

Marissa Collections' pink facade grabs attention from more than just me, filling an entire block at Broad Avenue South and Third Street South in Olde Naples.

Waterfront House

 

I was in Olde Naples near the Gulf.  This is the side of a big house that fronts on the beach.

Faces

I walked past a store that sells statuary.  I liked some of the faces. 

Otters

 Three otters dove, grabbed fish, climbed out to chew them, then dove back into the water to grab more fish and do it again and again.

I might have taken 100 photographs.  But, the light was bad, the action was blurred, the fish didn't look like fish, etc.  Do you ever have days when you just can't get the camera settings right?
