The third picture looks like the mantis is laughing at you. Good shots, tho. Next time make sure your reach does not exceed your grasp.
A Bishop, A Knight, The King Checkmate
Liked them all. Downloads are very good too. But I agree, the Windstar takes the cake. I could almost smell the salt air and hear a few gulls overhead.
1. Before the show
2. Okay girls, straighten up!
3. Ah - The Asian Star of the show is primed and ready.
1. Yellow tries to overwhelm the purple ladies, but burns out before the finish.
2. Orange surges to the front then fades to black.
3. Roses start strong and steadily out paces them all.
My favorite is Number 3
There you go - half an hour down the rabbit hole!
I really liked the second one. The kid is never going to know who ate his candy; will probably blame older sibling or Dad.
As for the mother with the crying baby, I understand her wanting to separate from the child. At times I wanted to
be separate from my children but they just latched on and wouldn't let go.
Don't see that very often. Nice shot.
#1 Open Wide
#2 Pushy little greens
#3 Eye Wide Open
#4 Amazing what a little contrast will do
# 5 Yellow dancing
My favorite - #4
I believe the boat shows just how large the cliffs are and how puny man-made things are by comparison.
Looks like the falls will last all summer. By now I think they are usually dried up.
I, too, am an only child. But I regard my husband's family as my family. I even regard my ex's family as mine because there is a blood relationship to them even if I'm not in the true bloodline. Your wife may understand
your feelings, but if she were me, I'd be hurt that you have cut yourself off from her/my children.
The only good wasp is a dead wasp as far as I'm concerned. Glad you got this one and could have the picture for posterity.
70 years old and all of them are familiar. There's also "the cat's pajamas"
Love your shots. On the last one, it looks like it's a female with kits (cubs?) near by. If so, did the cubs ever
make an appearance?
