This was back in June on our trip through Central Oregon. This unique site is waaaaay out in the middle of nowhere. When I finally got there, I was disappointed that there was this blinding white haze hanging from the sky and was afraid all the pictures would be crap. That's what they looked like on the LCD screen. But the haze actually let some of the subtleties of the color variations come out.
You are looking 35 million years into the past.
After the processing, this song popped up in my head:
'Paint It Black' by The Rolling Stones.
The first to lines are:
""I see a red door and I want it painted black.
No colours anymore, I want them to turn black.""
Sweet memories of Schiermonnikoog ;-))
Happy weekend!
I heard rumors that the painted bunting male had returned to Dix Park in Raleigh, NC so I ventured out to see him. Merlin app first told me he was around and then there he was. Breath taking bird to observe.
One more of that fabulous place, just because this one was so different being all by itself.

An Australian painted lady, Vanessa kershawi, feeding on the Jervis Bay Grevillea, Grevillea macleayana, at Hyams Beach, Jervis Bay, Australia.
The markings of the Australian painted lady are similar to the Northern Hemisphere painted lady, Vanessa cardui.

This lovely Dahlia was in perfect bloom. The nice part about this garden is that it’s run by a group of volunteers from the Dahlia Society of California. We were able to chat with them for a few minutes as they lovingly tended to all the flowers in the garden. This is clearly a labor of love, and their passion shows in the faces of all the beautiful blooms they care for.
I painted the back of a leaf and then put that on a canvas.
Happy Smile on Saturday

I was extremely surprised to see this little visitor in the yard. He hung out most of the day. This is only the second time I have seen a painted bunting in the yard. The last time was a couple of years ago. He did not allow me to get very close. He's also very fast. However, I did manage to get a couple of shots while he was here.
Have a wonderful day and happy snapping.
I don't want summer to end without posting a butterfly. Here is a Painted Lady, and as you can see it was well aware that I was taking its photograph. How lucky we are to be able to observe with our macro lens their tiny lives.
Butterflies have been the inspiration of so many fairy tales and fantastic stories, and there are so many more things that I can say about them, but for now I'm going to stop there :)
Something interesting about this butterfly:

Photography is one of my passions, and nature photography is my favorite.
I have been in Explore for more that a hundred times, and it is an awesome experience to have your photos showcased in such a special way.
I thank your for coming today, for leaving a comment, and make a favorite of yours this photo, (if that is the case) thanks again!
The best part of this forum is the contacts and friends that I have made over the years, that have the same passion for this art that is called photography!

It's been a long time since I did any painting. Trying get a little variety during this lock-down. It's painted on a stone.
Male Painted Bunting, Passerina ciris, defending its turf as I watched two males chasing each other, this one emerged as the "apparent" winner.
Finally something other than an American Lady. Nothing against American Ladies but this is the first Painted Lady I've seen this year.
Another unused photo I took for the Macro Monday theme - (Begins With) The First Letter of My Name. (White Paint)
