However, you would be surprised to learn how a papaya tree with serverely broken root systems can survive a transplantation ...

I have just joined "Phone Snap" and thought that my first upload should be the photograph that I took most recently. I took this a few hours ago when out for a walk around a local lake. The effect is produced by the Vignette app. The photograph is part of a series that I am taking of benches.

What appears to be an impossibly boundless volume of water is really an illusion created with the aid of a largely invisible acrylic cylinder. William Pye's "reverse fountain", entitled Charybdis (referring to the sea monster of Greek myth), was designed for Seaham Hall of Sunderland, England.
