This week’s Foto Friday Fun features images chosen by eight readers including some wildlife from South Africa, a double rainbow, and more.
Diane and Nigel chose #3003. While hiking along the Rainbow Rim with Jim and Gayle during June 2015 I saw this fruit on a prickly pear cactus. I love to eat the fruit but am leery of the spines. We started our hike at Parissawampitts Point on the Kaibab National Forest walking mostly through forest and had a few views into Grand Canyon.
Rita chose #480. The amazing view over False Bay from the balcony off my room a Moonglow Guesthouse in Glen Cairn, South Africa during March 2010.
Jeff chose #1968, “the last time all baseball teams shared the same opening day.” This shot of a monsoon sky over Grand Canyon was taken towards the opening of the day on 8-28-10.
Sue chose #1997, the first time she hiked the Little Wildhorse slot canyon. This was the first time I hiked in the Drakensburg Mountains on my first visit to South Africa in 2010.
Sherry and David chose #3437, “the score in the women’s NCAA basketball game I’m watching.” This shot of a water buffalo was a score while visiting Addo Elephant National Park in South Africa during my 2013 visit.
Jodee and Bill chose #1370. The matriarchs watch over the young until they are many years old and then the males go off on their own while the females stay together. I learned that on my first 2010 visit to Kruger National Park, South Africa.
Sallie and Bill chose #1874, one of four in a panorama. After a full day of play on the Kaibab National Forest I was rewarded with this double rainbow from the Kaibab Lodge where I enjoyed a delicious dinner. The structure seen is the North Rim Country Store.
Yogi chose #4583. This Gray Rhebok is being groomed of ticks by an Oxpecker bird seen in Kruger National Park, South Africa during February 2014.
My choice this week from the full moon rise the end of March taken in Yarnell, Arizona.

Do you have a favorite this week?
I give up. Every picture I saw was my favorite. I’m partial to animals in the wild, landscapes, rainbows, sunrises, sunsets and the moon. So I’ll try 4068 for next time and see if I can pull up one of those sun things. Your photography is a joy!
I have to add that the clouds in the early 3 photographs are fantastic.
Thanks Sherry. I truly like them all this week as well. #4068 for you next week.
Spectacular photo’s Gaelyn. I love em all !! Of course my favourite has to be the monsoon sky over the Grand Canyon. No 1077 for next weeks photo Friday please. Have a good weekend.
Thanks Rita. Monsoon at the canyon is my favorite time to photograph there. #1077 for you next week.
You have had amazing adventures and your photos are wonderful.
Thanks Jennifer.
Hard to pick a favorite, all of the players made great choices. Next week I’d like 6500 the amount ($65.00) I paid for the RV smog check this morning.
Sure glad I live remote so none of that smog check stuff. #6500 for next week.

That rainbow!! And it is ‘my’ picture … I feel certain it’s a lucky omen and life will be extra good this week. Gorgeous sky shot at the end too …. no wonder it is your choice out of all your beautiful pictures. Loved the animal pictures too. Elephants of course and interesting about that bird that grooms its host! Life is full of wonders.

The rainbow should definitely bring good luck for you. #917 for you.
