Graced by warm rays of Autumn sun, we smelled the sweetness of aster and shared a gentle breeze.

In this brief moment of peaceful serenity we were one..... then silently bid our farewells. Little bee and me.

Peace And Goodwill To All..... Happy Holidays ;0)

Let's play "sneak up on the rain barrel frog"

Just a game I play.....

.....trying to get super close for a decent shot..... but all the plants are a challenge. If I approach too close sometimes from the front then frog slips into the water. Oh well. I'll try again next Summer. (cute Pickerel ;0)

Berry Bokeh On A VERY Sunny Summer Day

Once ripened these berries do not stay on display very long. The birds quickly devour them.
