It was a last minute decision to pop out before dinner and take a few shots. I had to do it as all day there were very limited photo opportunities. Boy was I glad that I popped out….a great scene greeted me….mirror like reflections and magical light…only if I didn’t deliberate for so long…..

Not much is known about the Asian Golden Cat. It is a rather elusive predator, and most of what is known about it has been found out in captivity. The Asian Golden Cat lives throughout Southeast Asia, ranging from Tibet and Nepal to Southern China, India, and Sumatra. It prefers forest habitats interspersed with rocky areas, and is found in deciduous, subtropical evergreen, and tropical rainforests. The Asian Golden Cat is occasionally found in more open terrain. It ranges from the lowlands to altitudes of up to 3000 meters in the Himalayas. The exact population of the Asian Golden Cat is unknown. It is hunted for its fur and, increasingly, for its bones in traditional Chinese medicine. However, the greatest risk posed towards the species is habitat destruction. There are few of these felines in zoos, and they do not breed well in captivity. If you would like to buy a card, print or poster just go to ‘buy/preview’

Spirit of Delight ~ Chena River Autumn Colours / Tanana River Valley / Interior Alaska Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved “A gold fringe on the purpling hem Of hills the river runs, / As down its long, green valley falls The last of summer’s suns. / Along its tawny gravel-bed Broad-flowing, swift, and still, / As if its meadow levels felt The hurry of the hill, / Noiseless between its banks of green From curve to curve it slips; / The drowsy maple-shadows rest Like fingers on its lips. / A waif from Carroll’s wildest hills, Unstoried and unknown; / The ursine legend of its name Prowls on its banks alone. / Yet flowers as fair its slopes adorn As ever Yarrow knew, / Or, under rainy Irish skies, By Spenser’s Mulla grew; / And through the gaps of leaning trees Its mountain cradle shows / The gold against the amethyst, The green against the rose. / Touched by a light that hath no name, A glory never sung, / Aloft on sky and mountain wall Are God’s great pictures hung. / How changed the summits vast and old! No longer granite-browed, / They melt in rosy mist; the rock is softer than the cloud; / The valley holds its breath; no leaf Of all its elms is twirled; / The silence of eternity Seems falling on the world. / The pause before the breaking seals Of mystery is this; / Yon miracle-play of night and day makes dumb its witnesses. / What unseen altar crowns the hills that reach up stair on stair? / What eyes look through, what white wings fan These purple veils of air? / What Presence from the heavenly heights To those of earth stoops down? / Not vainly Hellas dreamed of gods On Ida’s snowy crown! / Slow fades the vision of the sky, The golden water pales, / And over all the valley-land A gray-winged vapour sails. / I go the common way of all; The sunset fires will burn, / The flowers will blow, the river flow, When I no more return. / No whisper from the mountain pine Nor lapsing stream shall tell / The stranger, treading where I tread, Of him who loved them well. / But beauty seen is never lost, God’s colours all are fast; / The glory of this sunset heaven into my soul has passed, / A sense of gladness unconfined To mortal date or clime; / As the soul liveth, it shall live Beyond the years of time. / Beside the mystic asphodels Shall bloom the home-born flowers, / And new horizons flush and glow With sunset hues of ours. / Farewell! these smiling hills must wear Too soon their wintry frown, / And snow-cold winds from off them shake The maple’s red leaves down. / But I shall see a summer sun still setting broad and low; / The mountain slopes shall blush and bloom, The golden water flow. / A lover’s claim is mine on all I see to have and hold, / The rose-light of perpetual hills, And sunsets never cold!” Poetry by John Greenleaf Whittier 1876 ~ Featured Member’s Choice Outdoors Fall Scenics October 2007 Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi /

Golden Malayan Coconut Palm Tree Trunk Detail / Kahului Maui Hawai’i © 2009 Fine Art Photography by Sharon Anne Mau Featured 30 May 2009 Nature’s Macro Canvas Featured May 2009 Inspired Art Featured 15 February 2009 As Is Featured 15 February 2009 Textures Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi / As Is / Shooting Date/Time 15 Pepeluali 2009 14:55:10 / Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/100 / Av( Aperture Value ) 6.3 / ISO Speed 100 / Lens EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM The Golden Coconut Palm or Golden Malayan Palm is native to the Pacific Islands. The difference with the Golden palm and the Green Coconut palm is the color of the fruit. The Golden Malayan having a gold coloured fruit. The Coconut Palm is the most universally known palm tree. It is the first thing most people think of when the words “palm tree” are spoken. With good reason too, the coconut palm is found throughout tropical regions around the world, though it originates in the south pacific and Caribbean. Information Source: The Golden Malayan Coconut Palm Moku Coconut Palm Frond Weaving “This beautiful palm embodies the romance of the tropics and is also of great economic value. There are many varieties, from dwarfs to the familiar tall growing types that reach 50-80 ft. All have graceful gray trunks topped by a crown of pinnately compound yellow-green leaves. Each leaf is 12-15 ft long with many leaflets. This is an extremely important plant, including . It appears that Coconut Palms were introduced throughout the Tropics and the Hawaiian islands by ancient Polynesians. Coconut fibers were used to make twine by Ancient Hawaiians. The Hawaiians evidently grew two types of coconut. One was best for making rope and the other was best for consumption. The scientific name for coconut is Cocos nucifera. The Coconut Palm (Cocos nucifera) is a member of the Family Arecaceae. Coconut trees are palms that grow up to 90 feet high grow throughout the tropics. , they Their trunks are ringed with scars where old leaves have fallen. The top of the trunk is crowned with a rosette of leaves. Leaves are feather-shaped and split into lots of leaflets. Long leaves can grow up to 20 feet long and can have 250 leaflets. They are used for matting, weaving and thatching. Flowers – male and female flowers grow on the same plants on flowering branches. Flowers are pale yellow and are about 1 cm long. The base of flowering branches are tapped for sap. Coconut fruits are oval and covered with a smooth skin which can be bright green, brilliant orange or ivory coloured. Underneath this skin is a thick fibrous layer which is used for coir. The next layer is the shell of the seed with the three characteristic ‘eyes’. The shell may be used to make charcoal and eating utensils. The inside of the shell is lined with a white, edible layer called the meat. This is also made into chemical, industrial and medicinal products. The fluid inside the seed cavity is known as coconut water (not milk). When seeds germinate, the new shoot sprouts from one of the eyes. The coconut is the only species in the genus Cocos. In India it has been called the ‘tree of heaven’ or ‘kalpavriksha‘. Coconut palms are known as the ‘Tree of Life’ because of their huge variety of uses. The large spirally arranged leaves are up to 12 feet or more in length, and are pinnately divided into numerous strap shaped segments. The separate male and female flowers are in axillary panicles. The male flowers have 3 yellow petals and 2 stamens. The ovoid coconut is up to a foot long, and is composed of a thick fibrous husk, a hard shell, and a single seed with the copra lining the interior, and water (coconut milk) filling the cavity when it is young. Coconut palms have two natural subgroups simply referred to as “Tall” and “Dwarf”. Most commercial plantings use high yielding, longer lived Tall cultivars, and each region has its own selections, e.g., ‘Ceylon Tall’, Indian Tall’, ‘Jamaica Tall’ (syn. ‘Atlantic Tall’), ‘Panama Tall’ (syn. ‘Pacific Tall’). The Tall cultivar group is sometimes given the name Cocos nucifera var. typica, and the dwarf cultivar group C. nucifera var. nana. Samoan Coconut Trees are in this dwarf group. Dwarf cultivars, particularly the popular ornamentals, are largely self-pollinating as opposed to the Tall cultivars of commerce which rarely pollinate themselves. Coconuts are large, dry drupes, ovoid in shape, up to 15” long and 12” wide. The exocarp or skin is green, yellow, or bronze-gold, turning to brown, depending on cultivar and maturity. The mesocarp is fibrous and dry at maturity; the product coir is derived from this layer. The endocarp is the hard shell enclosing the seed. Seeds are the largest of any plant, and have a thin brown seed coat. Seeds are filled with endosperm, which is solid and adherent to the seed coat, and also in liquid form, called “milk”. Copra is derived from the solid endosperm Coconut is a pan-tropical species usually found in humid coastal areas between latitudes 26 degrees north and south. The origin of this plant is uncertain, but many experts believe it’s from the west Pacific and Indian Ocean islands.” /
