Flowers – Page 16 – Daffodil Hill Photography

The Fleabane is flourishing on our place and that is fine with me. I can count on them to be available for a photo-op now until the end of July. I needed that availability today since I could not find the new place on our face as I hoped. So I went took a few shots of my ever faithful Fleabane. So here is a Fleabane And A Long-Horned Grasshopper Nymph.

A Bee And A Bloom

A Walkabout At The Lake

The Bride and I spent several hours walking around the lake this afternoon. Here are several captures from the day. Hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed the day.

Not What It Seems Part II

I took a picture of these roses and some may think they were shot outside but…

…they were on the table next to ours at a restaurant last night!

One From Awhile Ago

Shot with my Nikon Coolpix 4600. Trying a little bit of shooting into the sun experiment.

Work has kept me pretty busy lately so no new captures for today. I have several I need to download but busy is getting in the way of my fun 🙂 Being a grown up stinks sometimes 😉 Till the next time here is one from awhile ago!

More Little Treasures

The bride to The Boy to the creek today after work. When they came back she told me about a little vine with purple flowers on it she had found. I went with her and The Boy back down to the creek. I found the vines by said little purple flowers about the same time the clouds found the sun. Since I am who I am I took the shot(s) of this little treasure. Below, accompanying the purple flower, is a Fleabane I found with a little moth on it.

Both the above picture were taken with my Canon Powershot SX10is

A Bee In The Apple Tree

The bees have arrived and are enjoying the Apple Blossoms!

The last time I posted an Apple Blossom the bees had not shown up yet. They arrived mid-week and I have this capture to prove it 😉 There hopefully will bee more to come (both bees and pictures)!

A Photo Potpourri

I knew today was going to be mostly cloudy but I was hopeful that the Sun would show up for a few cameos. Well no such luck so I went to my default setting and just took the shot(s). Here is a few from the day!

The fine folks at the road dept have created green spaces at varies entrance/exit ramps. I do not know if this is true all through our fine Commonwealth but it so in my part of it. The poppies are popping and I hope to get back when the sun is shinning and the wind is NOT blowing!

Do you wish, as I do, that old and abandon places could talk?

I was taking a few pictures of a nearby Fleabane when I noticed these wildflowers. I was drawn to the unopened blooms when I noticed this ant. Quite the poser he is!

Fleabane: Filling station for pollinators!

A Bee On An Overcast Day

I have been digging the wonderful sunshine since it finally showed up around here but today it took a half day off. I was hoping to get home and take pics of the bees in the apple tree. Seems they took off half the day as well…..the half I wanted to take pictures of them during! Oh well, this fellow decide to buck the trend and showed up for an evening fill up overcast or not. Enjoy!
