Weeds in the Backyard
A dragonfly lingered over the backyard for a really long time as I watched through the bedroom window this morning. I always think that dragonflies have a message for me so although my back still HURTS LIKE HELL, I grabbed my camera and macro lens and hobbled outside. I quickly realized that there was no way I could get a shot of the dragonfly so I focused my lens instead on a shady patch of weeds. The flowers were so cute, only about a 1/2 inch in diameter at most. Maybe when my back gets better I'll drag out my tripod and try to get clearer shots. Wonder what my message was.

hope your back feels better soon. found this online about dragonflies, kinda interesting.
Why are weeds with lovely flowers called "weeds"?
Sorry to hear your back is still hurting bad...not good. :( How's your cold?
Thanks Kat! That link is so interesting. Gotta go back and read it some more. There's this bird, maybe some kind of cardinal that's been tapping on our window every morning. Wendell thinks it's annoying. I think it's pretty neat.
I don't know Betty, but I think we gotta start pulling um soon. They're kinda overtaking the grass. I'm still a little congested in my lungs. I hate the back thing the worse though. I have photo shoots that I'm committed to that I don't want to cancel, but it's hard to do a good job when your back is sore.
Hey, hope you're feeling better soon...your pics still nice, even with the sore back :)
The pictures came out very nice and clear to me ^_^ Hope your back gets better soon....
Thanks Les!
Thanks Mmiissee. I'll try with a tripod next time, and we'll see if we can tell the difference.
Nice macros, love that second one! Take care of your back.
Thanks Erick!
Beautiful shots! I certainly wish you a speedy recovery ~ no fun to shoot with a sore back.
Thanks Celia!
You better go doctor...maybe you cracked some ribs ?? I know a few people that has happened to ...from coughing...remind me to tell you my "moth" story...
It's getting better Didi . . . just taking so damn long. I no more patience.
never saw prettier weeds in my life. :) hope your back gets better soon. if you can't make it to our photo-shoot, don't worry. just concentrate on feeling better.
Thanks Fawn! I should be all good by the time of our shoot.
Jalna you should tell Wendell stop playing so much damn softball and get out there and pull those damn weeds! :) Hope your back is feeling better. You should ask Wendell to take you to his masseur in Maunawili I heard he can work miracles.

AHAHAHAHA, that's sooo funny, Ross. And thank you, but nobody's getting anywhere near my back right now.
