you went to india? wow, those are great, i like the one with the plants on the rock

I like the "Fabled Banyan"

India's National Tree - Banyan
Indian fig tree, Ficus bengalensis, whose branches root themselves like new trees over a large area. The roots then give rise to more trunks and branches. Because of this characteristic and its longevity, this tree is considered immortal and is an integral part of the myths and legends of India. Even today, the banyan tree is the focal point of village life and the village council meets under the shade of this tree

you avatar, ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speshall, I am Indian

The Banyan is a great tree, NME...We saw the one of the largest ever in the world in Chennai (Madras). Its in the Theosophical Society. Sadly, it's center trunk was uprooted by a cyclone, but it continues to survive.

cool, when i was in the redwoods we were crallin along in hollow logs, it was like a big jungle gym. its awsome. thats cool about you bein native american too

HARKS, YOUR PIC'S ARE BEAUTIFUL...NICE JOB!

Speshall ... Frogfish is of the Asian variety/India .. "Indian".

Lol, NC is right. I'm from the country India Not Native American...

so sorry, common misconseption, indian is used for native americans i sometimes say "dell teck support' or "dot" indians, no offense though.










P.S. i do a great indian accent, just sayin

I've lost most of my Indian accent...

ooooh, that explains why you went to india!!! yeah, i can do any accent axept irish. i can do lots of different voices too.

if i offended you in any way, i am sorry. does any body have any pic of yosemite? i have always wanted ot go there. its a very pretty place. i think i am going there on my next vacation.

I've lived in India for some time speshall. We just went for a visit last year.

All my pictures of Yosemite are film photographs, and tucked away in an album. I'm too lazy to dig them up and scan them, but it IS a pretty place.

you went there too? my GOD! oh, wait. nvmd, i forgot that your parents are doctors. lucky. you get to go places. i was in crater lake 2 years ago, and it was my first real vacation. not that we're poor, its just the trip was REALLY expensive. first class all the way.

We also lived in California for some time. We lived in La Jolla Shores, a suburb of San Diego.

i was in norhtern california, redwoods and fern canyon and such. it was nice.

Wow .. those are awesome pix Speshall ..

ah, yes, i know you all adore me, but i must say, your pics are very good as well. your leader has spoken.

As an Metal detectorist I already got an prophet who is my leader!
Nice pics.

snoopy rocks nativechick! i love snoopy!

I'm an artist I guess, but for whatever reason Photography has always elluded me. This is the only decent pictures I've taken ever. hahah. It has a funny story too.

People always ask me what this little gal was thinking of when I took this picture. I can tell you that. It's a photo of my daughter I took at Mele Cascades in the country of Vanuatu. She was about 16 at the time. She's giving me that classic "Oh mom" look, because I'd asked her to come out of the water and put a t-shirt on. In this area of Vanuatu, it's considered taboo for women to show their thighs or shoulders (nevermind that on some islands in the country, it's OK for women to be bare breasted, but they're still required to cover their thighs. :-) In this particular area, covered thighs and shoulders are the rule, so I got the "look" haha

And no worries about posting this photograph, it was used in a commercial tourism campaign, this isn't the first time it's been on a Web site.

Me too .. I adore Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts Gang ..
