I love this lantern. It's in my backyard and it is probably one of my favorite things to shoot back there.
Timothy took two and three quarter days to climb the rock. He didn't mind, because when you are only three quarters of an inch tall the world is a very different place.
It really doesn't matter how we feel in a situation if we feel as though we don't measure up that is all we know.

This little bobble hangs on the willow tree in my backyard. Usually it spins and the glass ball at the bottom reflects all the beautiful sunlight. Right now the cooper wire seems to be keeping the snow enclosed inside it.

Read an inspiring quote every day. Why you may ask? Well I struggles with depression and since I started posting pictures on Flickr I started reading inspiring quotes. I figured if you weren't inspired by my photos maybe the words attached to them would inspire you instead. But guess what happened? I started feeling better. I am unsure if it is the pictures or reading all these really cool quotes but either way I feel better. That is the real win!
I was traveling to Arcata from Palo Alto last Saturday and decided to stop for lunch (we had prepared food from home). Cherry Creek Rest stop was open unlike other closed ones. This is probably the best rest stop I have been to in California! There were many picnic benches among tall redwood trees but the spring bloom was at its best. The area was filled with wild flowers and of course many bugs! I did not carry my macro lens but 100-400 did a decent job catching this lifer!
Taken at Gamble Garden, Palo Alto. Actually there are around ~6000 different species of them! This is just one!
I gather for hours, these moments where I live inside of you. Where I curl softly
in the kindness of your extended hand. Where I have composed such brilliant
language, but cannot yet speak it.

"The existence of symmetry laws is in full accordance with our daily experience. The simplest of these symmetries, the isotropy and homogeneity of space, are concepts that date back to the early history of human thought." Chen-Ning Yang
I wanted to stay 'low' to avoid further injuries on a beautiful Sunday. The Gamble Garden is booming! The bugs are not coming out yet but the annuals are!

Spare a thought for this bloke. spent the last few days in my shower.
Was so traumatizing for him watching me shower he must have bitten 2 legs off!
Unless he lost a wrap battle with the Dolophones down the street and the looser had to watch me shower for a few days.. Not sure...
I gotta admit AWKWARD!!
Jokes aside poor Huntsman he was a bit dehydrated so gave him a drink and put him out where he can have a feed.

All these years, I have only seen them in photos. Finally I was able to photograph and find more than one in one day! All thanks to Chris Orr (BFF of Lou - Bug Finder Forever:-) and Roberto. @ LA Arboretum. This one was on the butterfly bushes near Rose Garden. 9 image HDR.
This gorgeous lady flew in and sat so close to me, I had to step back to put her within shortest focusing distance at Edgewood Park. Cropped for straightening but almost a full frame.

This is straight out of the Camera. I am finally starting to see the progress in my photography. Thank you Monique <3
At first I thought, it was a drone fly nut did some more research and it looks like species of a digger bee. Seen @ Herb Garden - LA Arboretum
This does not happen everyday with a handheld 180 mm L but maybe I was in good company! :-) Lou just pointed me to a Mexican cactus fly and Roberto was photographing it. We saw a a skipper and was debating what kind it was. This Monarch just flew overhead and I clicked. Sheer luck!
