Here's the Dragonfly shot I told you about. 
I didn't really "capture" it (as in putting it in a jar)...I captured it with my camera.  hahaha 
I don't think I've ever seen one colored quite like this one. 
He was fluttering around all over the garden and finally landed on the wooden walkway about 6 feet away.  That's when I snapped the pic.

<< this is the first cropping I did to the photo to bring him in closer. 





Then I cropped it even more to show the detail in the wings. 
Cool huh? 



And now for a little HOT SUMMER COLOR.......... try this one full size.

OMGosh!  It's still HOT.  Some of our Heat Index's have been up to 115 degrees!  I don't do much in the heat.  Even tho I stay inside it still seems to just zap me just thinking about how hot it is.  
Yep!  I'm a wimp and freely admit it.  lol

Haven't been back to sew for awhile and I'm between 'what to sew' and 'need to quilt'.   Can't make up my mind about which to do......
So....   I turn into a slug and play games on the puter.

I have been out (on one of the nicer days) and took some pics of the summer flowers. 
So here you go.... Enjoy...My one and only Stargazer Lily.  It's a beauty isn't it?

You really should click the pics to enlarge to see them in all their glory. 

 I have more garden pics I'll share in the next few days.  I can't wait to show you the really weird dragonfly I captured.   Stay tuned.
