I was rummaging around in the photo archives from our Summer 2008 vacation and I found another image pair from the Grand Canyon that could be merged into a 3D anaglyph. This was taken from near Mather Point along the South Rim of the Canyon. In the distance, is another canyon wall which is also on the South Rim across the chasm from this point.
In the foreground, you can see narrowleaf mesquite and scrub conifer shrubbery growing among the rocky cliff walls. Just behind this area in walking distance, lies Grand Canyon Village where hotels, shops and restaurants abound.

Now, before you run off to another site because you don’t have your free pair of 3D glasses, you can see the 2D version here.

I took a walk after lunch near my office in Manhattan Beach, California today. It was the first work day in quite a while that was sunny and nice as opposed to the June gloomy marine overcast we’ve had recently. I walked over to the golf course and took this panoramic image of the links on a beautiful day. Click the image and scroll back and forth to view the full panorama.

This Easter Lily cactus flower opened this morning during the dark hours. I got this photo of it this morning before it wilted away in the afternoon sun.

We’re spending Flag Day and the birthday of the U.S. Army relaxing at home. In the crock pot is Crazy Yellow Chicken, which I’ll put on the grill later for the finishing touches.

This is Bear speaking. I guess I got into trouble with my hoomins because I was chewing on my skin so much it was getting raw. They make me wear this double thingy because I was bending the single one and chewing anyhow. I don’t really like these things, but I get more attention since they take them off when I eat, drink or go to the sandbox. Then it goes back on again. Darn!

The new Japanese garden feature at the Botanic Garden installed a pond water feature. We were there last year and saw the aquarium guys stocking it with Koi. They were fingerlings then, but now they’re much larger. These lovely and colorful marine critters add to the tranquility of the Asian-themed garden.
