Another shot from the Rockefeller Chapel at The University of Chicago. Nothing fancy here. I can't wait to head back...I just ordered my Pentax 10-17mm fish-eye and can't wait to use it. And I think the UofC has tons to offer for the fish-eye.
"The Flickr Lounge" "Weekly Theme" Translucence
A late spring frost covered the car windshield with a layer of frost last night. I read the theme for this week, just in time to catch this shot before warming temps cleared the glass.
Deleted the previous post, sorry and thank you for your wishes :)

Finally I succeeded to seize to take a nap of 90mins in today afternoon. Although anxiety is still there when the dream ends, at least I feel that today, a precious Saturday, I have done something purely for my own goodself.
Loved the wings on this bee. I find my problems with macro photography are (a) fighting the urge to crop the image or (b) moving in too close. I enjoy seeing pollinators doing what they do best: pollinating. Removing the flowers and focusing on the bee alone, while providing a cool image, isn't the whole story.
Worth a look in light box :)
A giant thank you to Jim (SARhounds) who put me on the right track for the plant ID!
