Rose with Water Drops...

It is a late season bloom on one of my roses. It rained the other night and you can see the drops of water on the petals.

I saw the bee on the bloom and wanted to get a photo of it. I was not able to get he camera in place fast enough so i was able to get him trying to land on another bloom on the plant.

I woke up this morning and look what i saw. I was amazed to find this Lilly blooming in my yard. We had a little rain yesterday, but not much. I guess what we did get made this bloom. I have a rose bush that is back in bloom as well. I wonder if all the dry weather has something to do with the blooms this summer.

The Blog...

Over the next week i will be in transition to a new location. I will have several photos posted till the 9th of July and then my Co-Author, Jimmy Freeman, will be taking the blog over for a few days till i get settled. I will be able to post photos from my LGVX8600 Cam Phone but no big posts or photos from Flickr till i get settled and have internet service. So from July 9 till July 14, i will not be posting any big photos.

See you soon!

This spider lives by our front door. I watched him last night repairing his web. I took a series of photos and then i decided to crop this one. I used a flash on this photo as it was near dark when i took the original photo.
