Inside WA museum Boola Bardip

This morning I went to the Richmond Sunflower Festival. Many different varieties of Sunflowers as well as Dahlias and other types.

An old shed in Andover, Illinois reveals many textures on its exterior.

Clematis

These summer flowers seem to be close to the end of flowering.

VIEW OF THE SPEZIA BAY FROM MONTEMARCELLO.

Montemarcello is a frazione of the commune of Ameglia (Italy). It is the home to the Regional natural Park of Montemarcello-Magra.

There's good reason why White Pocket is one of my most popular tours. It's off the beaten path, hard to get to, and offers so much photographic potential. Here's a shot showcasing the many layers you get in the brainrock out here.

As the low, late afternoon sun illuminated the grasses into neon,

I catch a tiny flash of a different colour.

A new wildflower, I've never seen before?

Could be interesting for a pic. Let's have a look ..

No, it was these guys.

I didn't really think I'd get anything decent as everything was swaying in the the breeze, getting focus through the grass stems, and me shaky with zoom ... I gave it a go just for the practice.

Later at home, I was surprised I got 2 out of the three in focus before they did fly off into the wild green yonder, still stuck together.

More of a surprise to see one of them was holding a 'snack'.

Their version of crackers in bed, perhaps ..?

sooc..

HMM !

Update:

Many Thanks to Anuj, who just gave me the correct ID for the loving couple.

They are Robber Flies.

I haven't heard of this name, but now I look more closely, their wings aren't as long as those on Dragonflies.

for Macro Mondays: rock

Trying to do my row for the day at the same time as my shot for the day. I've worked four long days in a row so that I could have off tomorrow. I have no special plans for tomorrow and, thus, so special need to have the day off, but having a day off sounded good back when we did our late shift schedule last month. I will sleep in a bit and see where the day takes me. I plan to walk in the Women's March on Saturday so I need to come up with a poster.
