That is such a cool shot.
ReplyDeleteFabulous! X
ReplyDeleteWow! That's wonderfully vivid. I love hibiscuses (hibisci? A hibiscus and its friends?)
ReplyDeleteCute! It's such a funny thing about June Bugs, their life span being rather short lived, and they say if exposed with too much sunlight they die...although every morning I find from 1 to 6 of them swimming (YES!) swimming with their frail little buggy legs, in my kitty cat's water! When I dump it, they are still moving! I Had no idea how long they can fight for life! When I grew up in Michigan they were really thick, and just driving down the road they would dive bomb our car...not so much any more!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful hibiscus! :-)

ReplyDeleteTHANKS to each and every one!!! i don't know if you'll see this note by me...maybe i'll send a quick email...but i had a ROOT CANAL and an EXTRACTION yesterday afternoon...and believe it or not...i'm NOT in pain this morning! just a dull kind of ache. yay, June is here...just had the FULL moon...and i plan to get back in the swing of things. i have a lot to catch up on since i had such a (shitty) May.
ReplyDeletethanks again for stopping by...even though i haven't stopped by YOU! but i will...i can feel life getting back to ,,,uh...normal??!! normal for me, anyway! :) >>laura
So glad to hear the root canal & extraction went OK - glad the pain is gone. Upward & onward, now, into a hopefully-better June! Take care of yourself, Laura. The rest of us are still hangin' in there with you, so get back to cyberspace ONLY when you feel up to it. We'll all be here...
ReplyDeletethanks Ladybug!! i'm on the mend...and PLAN to do a post in the next few days...but first...i have LOTS of catching up to do...some world traveling via cyberspace!
DeleteCool shot. I love how the stylus and the shadow are in focus. I have a hard time doing that with my macro lens. Yikes on the dental work. Glad it went OK. Hope you're feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. B
ReplyDeleteI hope all is well with the root canal. I had one in February. It wasn't too bad. I think it often depends on the dentist/endodontist who does it.
ReplyDeleteI just looked at your "...rather than a thousand words" post. Your photos are incredible. Thanks for sharing all that beauty.
THANKS again to all you who took time to leave a note...and for all the kind words! :)
