When seeing at a distance and even when nearing the refinery, I thought it was something of the past. And then the narrator aboard the Creole Queen Historic Cruise began to tell of its history. To my surprise it is still operational and has been operating on the banks of the Mississippi River since 1909, now producing 7 million pounds of sugar per day. This Louisiana refinery is one of the region’s largest employers, providing more than 400 direct jobs. Today, the Chalmette refinery is the largest cane sugar refinery in the western hemisphere. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved Printed on a coffee mug

An amazing #sunset in #Pittsburgh tonight. That’s the aptly named Summerset neighborhood across the way from the slags above Frick Park. #grateful to have this perch less than a half mile walk from my house.

A bunny runs excitedly down a beach at high tide, to a greenish bottle that has just been washed ashore. Inside the bottle is a rolled up message.

These two vibrant images are new to the Mexico collection and exist on both websites.

The first one was taken in Mexico City in 2025 and the second one, in Puebla also 2025.

They look great in simple frames and really brighten up a wall!

Plaque Read: "The World’s Largest Fiddle located on the Sydney waterfront next to the Joan Harriss Cruise Pavilion greets visitors as they arrive via cruise ship. The fiddle and bow reach a height of 60 feet!" Made of solid steel, the giant fiddle was dubbed FIDHEAL MHOR A’ CEILIDH or the “Big Fiddle of the Ceilidh”. Ceilidh is a Gaelic word which translates into "visit." The Big Fiddle, as many call it, was designed and constructed by Cyril Hearn in 2005. It is a tribute to the folk music and traditions of the province’s Celtic community. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved Image printed on a tee shirt.

Tricolored Heron has its wings up high as it walked toward me through the water. A beautiful reflection of the bird and motion of the water add to the overall beauty of this nature image.

Tricolored Heron, with its wings spread high and wide, makes me think of angel wings.

Nestled in a field of Bluebonnets, the vibrant red & yellow of the single Indian Paintbrush flower stands out. Indian Paintbrush also known as Prairie-Fire wildflowers bloom in April and can be found in fields beside Bluebonnets or in a flowering bunch. The rural Texas meadows come alive with these radiant flowers.

The yellow plate growing on their beak is a characteristic during breeding season. While most American White #Pelicans go north to their breeding grounds, it appears this group might stay in #Oklahoma for the season.
