Delicate Arch is a 65-foot-tall (20 m) freestanding natural arch located in Arches National Park near Moab, Utah, USA. It is the most widely recognized landmark in Arches National Park and is depicted on Utah license plates and on a postage stamp commemorating Utah's centennial anniversary of statehood in 1996.

Having much fun with my 5th macro lens in my 'carreer' and looks like this one I won't sell/give like the four others...

This is smartweed which grows in receding waterlines of lakeshores or any moist disturbed area. It's also been called swamp smartweed and birds really like the seeds of this plant. This one was growing close to a slow moving river.

I've only seen just a few poppies here and there this year but still looking lovely how they stand among the tall grass and other summer flowers.

Thank you all very much for your visit.

A tranquil night at the Delicate Arch, the iconic landmark of Utah. Two shots blended in Photoshop.

Not the best of focus, but in that day almost all birds desperately have fled of my lenses ..

Taken in Alum Rock Park. I'm just in love with how the bokeh came out on this one...

Scilla are one of the first spring flowers to show themselves. These delicate blooms were growing in someone's yard a few years ago. I should be seeing them pop up within a month, or so I hope!

Thank you for your visits and comments, much appreciated! Have a great day!

The Maudaiae type of Paphhiopedilum, single flowered hybrid called after one of the first, and most delightful, hybrids made within this group. Their oval leaves are attractively mottled in green and gray-green, sometimes darkly peppered on the undersides, and their elegant flowers, carried proudly on tall, slender stems.

Before and After

The beauty of a flower is not only what we see from above. Lifting this tulip above my head, I was struck by the simple beauty of the transition of colors. I find it interesting that in our rush to accomplish tasks of the day, we often miss what is right in front of us...or just out of sight.
