It's a girl. The husband has been eaten.

Ironfist. Please get a camera. Your photos are brilliant and you've obviously got the eye.

But digital cameras were only invented to make amateur porn photos easier.

Am not sure if this counts as nature, but snapped this sunset on my iphone 4 when walking at a local hill fort with the kids recently - am sure is technically poor and not sure what caused the sunlight to react in way it has, but I like it!

Still very cool.

Could be some refracture light off a water drop or moisture in the air which caused the light to break like that...

These are the flowers and early seeds of a Castor Oil plant, which grows wild in Israel and is actually quite poisonous.

I bet it would be hard to reproduce. Maybe something to do with the lens?

Pretty cool though.

It's lens flare. It's a nice effect here especially with the children in the image.

It's about the size of a 10p.

No idea what these are called, but there's plenty of them around and they're about an inch long...
