Yesterday evening, 24 March 2016, we had a mix of snow and rain falling and I felt like finding something bright and cheery to post this morning. At least in my area of the city, no snow had settled anywhere, which was a relief. The ground is wet, which is desperately needed, especially for farmers. The temperature is 4C and the sky is a mix of cloud and small patches of blue sky. The next two days look good (Easter weekend), but mixed precipitation is in the forecast for the coming week.
This photo of a delicate Damselfy on an opening Lily bud was taken at the Reader Rock Garden, on 14 August 2013.
Have a superb Sunday my friends!

Delicate Arch, Ut. I stopped by Moab for an overnight stay last weekend and took the walk out to Delicate Arch. I got there about an hour and a half before sunset and the place was covered with people. I got in some good shots with people waiting in line to get their pictures taken under the arch, but there was almost zero opportunity to get any shots of the arch by itself in daylight.
The moon was already starting to rise so I waited for night to let the moon light up the arch. About 6 of us stayed at the arch after sundown and got a spectacular show with all of the stars and the moon lighting up the arch amazingly well. I took several long exposures. I thought, "Who needs to take daylight pics with all of those people when you can take them at night when no one is around."
The Delicate Arch is shot so much I wanted to take some different aspects of the Arch. This shot is from underneath the arch. I got some other ones where you can see the constellation Orion behind it. You can make out part of Orion in this particular shot. I will add some more photos of the arch soon.
A 5 km hike is worth the hike . We then waited for the sun to set being on top of the mountain was heart felt spiritual moment a must see Delicate Arch is 65-foot-tall

Taraxacum officinale. Dandelion. Wikipedia comments ~ Many Taraxacum species produce seeds asexually by apomixis, where the seeds are produced without pollination, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent plant.

The Spider's Web
The spider, dropping down from twig,
Unfolds a plan of her devising,
A thin premeditated rig
To use in rising.
And all that journey down through space,
In cool descent and loyal hearted,
She spins a ladder to the place
From where she started.
Thus I, gone forth as spiders do
In spider's web a truth discerning,
Attach one silken thread to you
For my returning.

Reeds at water’s edge provided some nice bokeh for these thistles that are already going to seed.
This is a macro shot of the common daisy. I really liked the delicate petals that are almost transparent.

Just returned from a road trip to Utah. This was taken on the first night after a 1 1/2 mile hike to the arch on the night of the summer solstice and one night shy of a full moon.
