Ah Sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done.

Algae creates glowing phenomena Local resident and photographer August Bach captured this incredible photo of bioluminescent algae “glowing” along the wave crests recently at Grayton Beach. Bioluminescence an amazing natural phenomena that occurs when a type of planktonic algae (microscopic free-floating algae) has high densities of excess nutrients. The glow appears when the algae is disturbed by motion. To learn more about August Bach go to his website at www.augustbach.com

Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful pics of my home county. I’ve lived abroad for nearly 20 years and it’s so nice to see such beautiful reminders of where I grew up and where I return to each year!
The image above & labeled Sarracenia rubra Subsp. gulfensis appears as a Hybrid of Sarracenia leucophylla (possibly) x rubra
Thanks Lori for the wonderful pictures. It reminds you of what a wonderful area we live in.
I forward them to my sons who grew up in Okaloosa Co. It will make them homesick! lol.
