It's always Spring or Summer living here in the Tropics!

My new friend at the pool. #tree frog #frog #anphibian #mottled

My first papaya from my tree that I rescued before the birds devoured it. Colorful and deliciously sweet!

Early in the morning I hear ratta-tat-tat contiuously and I know it's my resident lineated woodpecker, a large beautifu bird here Mexico.

This fuzzy 4” baby tarantula met me at my front door. What a greeting!

Working a summer event for children in the Mayan Zone of the Yucatan gave me a opportunity to capture the beauty of these young girls. Priceless!

This beautiful orbweaver spider found a temporary home across my front door!

A new store was opening and moving in and this cone was placed outside to keep everybody smiling and stress free!

Evening setting sunlight reflects on the tranquil fountain waters splashing in the reflecting pool.

There’s nothing like a cold dip on a hot humid day into a cenote filled with flower covered lily pads and bright fish.

The evening rains brought the spider monkeys to the dinner table in my trees searching for their favorite flower and fruits!

I was working a children's event in the heart of the Mayan Zone of Yucatan, Mexico and this clown was really great with the children and to photo

Visiting a local family farm in the Mayan Zone on the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico

A lot of rain and a hidden place in my garden gave me these wonderful mushrooms to photograph.

It's spring with the colorful bougainvillea blooming everywhere in my backyard!

Ornate brass door handles at the Basilica in St. Louis, MO.

Sunday afternoon, barbeque and magaritas with a perfect beach breeze.
