Hi Terri – thanks for the nice welcome – and yes, my break was a bit longer than I had planned.
In fact, it was getting so long I was thinking I might not ever come back – and I am still trying to find a new groove.
and I hope you are doing well
🙂

I knew you were busy with the book you published. New grooves are always fun to discover. Yes, I’m doing well!

Glad you are doing well – and I feel like I always have a book in progress – hahah
about ten years ago I had extra time to write and so I started a bunch of different books. Some have 25 or 30 thousand words – but going back – I am not sure they will all become books. I think those drafts, even if long, were just part of a creative process I needed to explore. I did not delete them all because text does not take up much room

These were beautiful close-ups Terri. All that real estate for the Ladybug to travel and a perfect butterfly, not a hint of a tattered wing. It’s nesting season for our Goldfinch right now.

Thank you, Dawn. When I pre-planned this post, I meant to remind folks of my upcoming Sunday Stills color challenge. Then I saw Lens-artists and added the Yosemite shot with the yellow flowers from our recent trip and voila!
