“The voice of conscience is so delicate that it is easy to stifle it; but it is also so clear that it is impossible to mistake it.”

One of a group of musk mallow (Malva moschata) flowers growing in lush green foliage just above the creek bank in Erba Park. Storm winds kept blowing these flowers around, but there was a lull in the wind when I snapped this shot. Flower ID: PlantNet.org. [SNY07382_lr_2000]
Thank you all for the clicks, comments & faves.
Orchids on trees! No, it's Bauhinia.
The Bauhinia Tree is also called the Orchid Tree. Imagine looking out your back door and seeing a tree simply covered with these glorious blossoms!
I love the delicate creamy stamens on their rosy filaments and the play of light and shadow they create on the pink and rose veins of its petals.
Bauhinia blakeana, Hong Kong Orchid Tree, Fabaceae

You can view Delicate Arch from upper viewing point, which is about a half mile hike up a hill. Well worth the climb, especially if you're unable to make it up to Delicate Arch itself. The arch is one of the main and most popular of the attractions at this park. The rangers allow you to walk onto the slickrock as long as you do not walk on non-rock surfaces. Sun down time, ended onto a plateau where the arch appeared almost like a vision on top of the cliffs, the deep cliffs under my foot…
I posted a photo yesterday, this one is in a bit different view, you can see the tiny Delicate Arch far away in the meddle of the photo… Most people ended up at viewpoint, could not see this view, it took a bit effort to climb to this location, few people did it, you can see three people sitting and waiting for the sunset on the edge of cliffs... Not long after taking this photo, it started raining, no real sunset...
I'm quite certain that many people would call this flower a weed. Not being sure of the identify of this plant, I'll have agree with A.A. Milne when he stated, "Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them."
From north Texas, delicate, fragrant blooms of spring I share with you, along with a little touch of blue.
It's at about this time of year I'd head over to local wildlife reserves or country parks to look for these little beauties, but for now I'll be satisfied with my archives.
This one might not be the bright blue that is so eye-catching (I'm not sure if it's an immature damselfly?), but I loved how its wings look like the most delicate stained glass.
I'm enjoying playing with textures at the moment too :)
