As suggested by Grant.

Oh I know that climate change has you all wondering how to save the cacti from carking it.
 Surely some of you have ways of cooling off in a land with so much of the earths limited supply of fresh water and have at some time or other have photographed it.




Whether it is birds in a sprinkler or mushrooms shading the ground for the spores they drop. It is all about cooling off.



Which by the way, is about a foot in the old measurement. that is a bit of a whatizit.

And/or will i be able to pay for water or even ever get the water to make a spinkler for the birds to bathe in?

Another,
Both also fit last month's challenge.

Nice shots of people cooling off. Mine are often more about nature trying to cool off.

I like them;
Especially the last one with the shutter speed catching rain drops.

Catching rainbows, I call it.







These are birds known as yellow throated miner or white rumped miner. Both names are common.

Those are summer photos when I am using sprinklers.
This is a winter photo when indeed we do get frosts and it may give off a cooler feeling?.

I'd reckon that this is how you'd prefer to see the mosquitoes. All cooled off.

Since the month is coming to an end, I may as well show some SOC abstracts that are made of ice and other things that I find on frosty mornings. Never so intricate as the kind of frosts that Grant photographs but thin ice is where I skate.
Naturally, rough opals under thin ice are a tapestry.

This one is both cold and red hot. It was a red plastic bucket.

The opal bucket gave me quite a few interesting abstracts.

The Group is dwindling. Too Bad
I think I may have shared this before however....
