I literally sat for about 15 minutes trying to capture at least a butterfly. I also did some crouching, standing, laying down until I realized an old man was giggling observing my persistence. Ha!
I did take quite a few flower pics. I even spotted a poppy flower. If only I could find a poppy FIELD :)
A lone tree hangs on to the cliff's edge as the late-day sun illuminates the walls of Bryce Canyon's amphitheater.

A revisit to my earlier work. I enhanced some areas and added few more items.
Can you identify them? ~Syd

Persistence and the good fortune to be able to travel widely in the UK and abroad will ensure that I remain a major contributor to CRWDP and similar sites. Today, I am posting five pictures from the Brighton area.

Atop Cathederal Ledge a pine tree, likely considerably older than its relatively small size would suggest, persists in a place it has no business being.

Sculpture
By Paul Chimera
Dali Historian
(Mr. Chimera worked directly with Dali Museum founder Reynolds Morse, as the publicity director of the original Dali Museum when it was located in Beachwood, Ohio.
Eureka! Your Salvador Dali Society, Inc. blogger has suddenly come up with an entirely new interpretation of Dali’s iconic and immortal “soft watch!” This is a historical moment, so hold onto your surreal seats, dear readers, as I don’t know – as a Dali historian and writer, who’s studied the artist’s work and life for more than 45 years – if this interpretation has ever quite been stated before:
The dripping, melting watch suggest that time is running out!
Like an ice cube, let’s say, that drips, drips, drips to oblivion, so too does the reality of life mean that, with every ticking second, time is running out. Life is running out. Our time here is finite, short, precious, ever-changing, ever-shortening!
And, of course, interpretation gets supplanted by fact when we consider this: Salvador Dali’s soft watch motif has made for not only his most universally famous painting, “The Persistence of Memory” of 1931, but also arguably the single most famous work of art of the entire 20th century.
So here, a single watch, flopped over a tree branch…dripping…melting…forms the basis for one of Salvador Dali’s most important sculptural pieces. DaVinci had his Mona Lisa. Warhol had his soup cans. Dali – his remarkable watches. Said Dali: Hard or soft, the principal thing is that the watch gives the exact time.”
Astonishing fact: Dali didn’t wear a watch. Not only did he not need to know himself what time it was – he had others to depend on for that – but it may be entirely true that he didn’t quite know how to tell time! Just as he had no real concept of what a particular denomination of money was worth.
Such is the unique life of geniuses.

6 LEDs setup like this: flickr.com/photos/randomskk/2158769361/
They flash on and off at high speed, so when waved about produce a message.
This new version has a little switch on the breadboard, when pressed it flashes the message once. This allows me to just have the message go by on the correct swing direction, and also makes it a LOT easier to get a good photograph.
I'm looking at using an accelerometer to do the same, but it would be able to automatically detect direction and speed and hopefully compensate to get a 'perfect' display.

After nearly a year of asking Peckham Post Office to replace the post box which was removed during a refurbishment, a new one is finally installed. Many thanks to Fiona Colley for her help with this. Now I just need one outside Camberwell Post Office :)
This moth kept returning to under our house, demanding to have its portrait taken. So I did.
A search revealed it to be a zodiac moth (Alcides metaurus) a diurnal feeder, also called the North Queensland day moth.
You obviously have to look a bit snazzier if you're going out in the daytime!
