A Little Beauty on This Rainy Day...

Ladybug, Ladybug, fly away home....


Captured this little creature yesterday morning, around 11 a.m.  Practicing with my camera, using different aspects...I was pleasantly surprised by this shot!

These outside photographs were taken minutes apart on the same bush...

This was the lovely I had stepped outside to photograph...who kept twisting in the wind, making it very hard to capture...

Lovely ladybug shot. I enjoy seeing them outdoors - have found two in the house. Remember the year we were all inundated with ladybugs? Not pleasant.

I love the birdies!

It's raining here too and I am still in bed with the two little fur babies beside me. The Commander is across the hall painting the room I am going to do in black and white and I am taking the morning off since I am battling insomnia again hoping to get a nap in before I go downstairs and out into the studio :)

Love you!

Cute! I thought it was some kind of butterfly at first, lol. Love those ladybugs, but they have been invading the house in the past couple years and I much prefer them outside!

Great shots and birdie art. I love this time of year when we can go OUTSIDE finally (I am in southern Texas and it is hot) to take photos. I love your blog banner photo too.

thanks for stopping by my blog and 'signing up' :)

When I see such beautiful pictures, I wish I had a better camera. I like the difference in lighting.
See you tomorrow for the last Pink Thursday.
