The counterpart to the photo everyone takes. This is the view, through a telescope on the observation platform, back towards the Black Sun sculpture.

Found at the Heartland of America Park. Does anyone know what kind of flower this is? That looks like a hosta in the background, but this doesn’t look to me like the flowers of a hosta, which are generally bell-shaped, a little less vivid in color, and not usually blooming until June.

Inside the “Desert Dome” at the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha, Nebraska. It was pretty impressive, with multiple desert environments separated by the stone hills seen here; there was also a cool nocturnal exhibit underneath.
