I note that summer has returned once more. Things are a lot warmer, I am a lot redder:)

I noticed these thistely seedy things blowing around in what breeze there was , and was fascinated by them.

Wonderfully fluffy shot.

Don't you just love PaDing? It makes you look at things you'd never stop to notice before. I can't imagine life without a PaD...maybe I just need to get a life? LOL

Wonderful shot, Lee. Very well composed.

This is so soft looking and gives the feel of late summer. Very nice.

For some reason, it makes me think of blonde hair and barbie dolls. :) Lovely image.
