With possible snow or flurries forecasted for this weekend, I had to post a butterfly of some variety to think spring and look ahead to summer!!! The Gulf Fritillary is perhaps one of my favorites, in addition to any bird I can photograph. Photographed in the Dixon Gardens, Memphis, Tennessee.
Memorial Day, a day when our nation remembers, reflects and honors those men and women who have given their all in service to their country. Let us never forget.

Leaving the dog park which was filled with active dogs after three days of rain, the sunset was vivid and oh so worth seeing and capturing to share it with all of you.
We suffer primarily not from our vices or our weaknesses, but from our illusions. We are haunted, not by reality, but by those images we have put in their place.

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care
Look Ma, I can do the swing!...Orangutans are the only exclusively Asian living genus of great ape. They are among the most intelligent primates and use a variety of sophisticated tools, also making sleeping nests each night from branches and foliage. They are generally not aggressive and live a mostly solitary life foraging for food. They are the largest living arboreal animals with longer arms than other great apes. Their hair is typically reddish-brown, instead of the brown or black hair typical of other great apes.

No one knows what its like
to be mistreated, to be defeated
behind blue eyes
no one know how to say
that they're sorry and don't worry
I'm not telling lies

Odonates (Odonata), or odonatoptères are an order of insects with elongated body, with two pairs of membranous wings generally transparent, and whose large compound eyes and usually allow them to hunt their prey efficiently. They are terrestrial and aquatic as adults in the larval stage.

Someday when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow
Just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight
My favorite photo of all time. Why? Because of its simplicity and how this simple picture conveys a deeper emotion. A simple yet intricately entertwined hands says as if this is FOREVER. This is LOVE.

Where is love?
Does it fall from skies above?
Is it underneat the willow tree

Who I close my eyes to see?
Will I ever know the sweet "hello"
That's only meant for me?

fed up with you always comin up short,
tired of all the games you play,
funny how now, you've got so much to say
to say...but you never
