Good Morning Gail... Just as I expected. This is such a happy place to visit early this morning. Beautiful reflection of the lily flower in the water. Each and every picture clearly speaks professionalism on the part of the photographer....that being YOU. Such beauty! Hope Double D enjoyed his Birthday!! hugs, shug
You surely do make it hard to choose a favorite, Gail. These are all just amazing. The water lily might just find itself on my desktop background. :) The detail on the dragonfly is gorgeous.
Guess what I checked out of the library today? The Big Year. Super excited to watch it tonight after the kids are in bed - it looks really cute! Thanks for the recommendation.

I was SO impressed by your magnificent nature featuring pictures♡♡♡ I never knew about flower the bluebonnet until Theresa introduced us p;) Really beautiful, aren't they♪♪♪ And my dragonfly fly lover husband started to telling me how he enjoyed catching them and playing with them when young. Also how they land the top of these things like in your pictures. He SO praised your GORGEOUS pictures(^_^)v
Sending you Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my dear Gail, xoxo Miyako*
