Friday Photopost: Ladies on the Dock

The Pink and White Showy Lady’s Slipper is the state flower of Minnesota. They are not very common. We came across these ones growing through a dock laying on the ground near a lake. There were others growing free nearby.

Not sure what should be done in this situation. There are conservation statutes and special instructions for if, when, and how they can be transplanted. Later that summer or the next year, there were no more of the flowers to be found in the area.

Fragile, transient beauty.

You have your Friday cat and squid bloggers out there, could I be a Friday photo blogger?

Photos: Autumn in Northern Minnesota

Went on a spur-of-the-moment camping trip this weekend, so I didn’t have much time to write. I did get an entry in for Free Software Magazine: “5 ways to save on your monthly software rental bill in the year 2056.” (Digg it!)

For want of new material, I’ll share these pictures from the trip, taken with my humble two-megapixel Olympus camera. Suitable for wallpaper or what have you. The pictures link to 1600×1200 and 1200×1600 versions.
