Pure Water


I just read that this little fly is the symbol of pure water to the Novajo people. I found this to be interesting considering we found him alive and floating around in our lab's water bowl. I'm guessing he was too wet to be airborne. It wasn't very long before he buzzed up and away.

No Two Are The Same


I closed the door to my car, nervous and excited to be alone, there were vacationers in and out of cars snapping pictures and playing in the surf. I came to capture the coastal sun to share. I once read that no two sunsets are the same and if that is true then my photo is an original. It's a nice thought. When the sun begins to sink it sinks quickly. I found myself sprinting back and forth placing the camera and my body in different positions only hoping to achieve bragging rights to a sunset that will never be any one's to brag on. After running about snapping pictures as if my very existence depended on it, I couldn't help but think of how nice it would have been to sit and watch it blaze down into the coastal sound---maybe tomorrow.

Wasp up?


Spring is awesome and so is most everything that is associated with it. With the exception of tornadoes, pollen, snakes and this little guy. Let me hear one buzzing in my car or around me and I'll put on the most amazing dance moves. His nest is outside of my bedroom window and from the safety of my room it's nice watching him at work ..even if it's in vain. We'll be pressure washing our windows next week.
