I learnt that the blue appearance of Blue Ridge comes from a chemical – isoprene – naturally emitted by the trees around here.

Typical summer evening in Atlanta. Getting ready for the pop up storms.

While walking to downtown this evening with Sharmila, this solo hydrangea plant caught my attention. It is still a baby plant. Immediately, my mind floated back to our prior home of nearly 15 years. We used to have some huge hydrangea trees there!

Rode the bike to river Chattahoochee and while sitting on the banks, noticed something interesting … our side of the water was muddy and the other side was clear. The dividing line was pretty much in the middle although, in this picture it does not look that way (because I am too close to this side).

Interesting phenomenon!

Taken from my iphone. Did not have my mirrorless. Saw this on a walk to Avalon this evening.
