What is This?

Can you guess what this is? I imagine that most of you see this everyday of your life....well, maybe! It's not as pretty as our last picture but just as useful!

Lori, thank you for your comment! I will try to keep these pics coming!

What is This? The Answer!

The answer that was the closest was from Kerri Shotts. But, it is probably plastic and not glass. Here is a bigger photo.


Actually, it is a broken reflector from either a car, bike or motorcyle. Don't know which as I only saw it AFTER it was broken and left lonely and in pieces in a parking lot. Doesn't it have a pretty design though? It proves that something that we see as broken and worthless can have a beauty all its own!

What is This?

Can you guess what this is? It is amazing to me how beautiful something can be and I have never noticed it before. Hint: I saw this out walking one day...

What is This? The Answer!

Several of you had great guesses as to what this could possibly be. Personally, I would have guessed a stuffed animal left out in the rain all night - but WAIT! That's not it!!! Mindy, you guessed right! Here is a pic that shows the whole object. A fuzzy, wet leaf!

Dragonfly Portraits

Have you ever looked at a bee or dragonfly up close? Perhaps not. They move so fast and unfortunately, some sting - hard! Fortunately for me (or not) I feel invincible when I have a camera in front of my face. I have been able to get some fantastic closeups of bugs, bees and dragonflies. AND some not so closeups of snakes!
As I was wondering in the park the other day (looking for something to shoot - with my camera) a dragonfly landed right in front of me. He was a vain little guy and willingly posed as I snapped pictures of him. He let me get within inches! He would just turn his little head as if to say, "What about this pose?" or "How about this?" I took so many pics that I finally walked away even though he was saying "Just one more! Please?"


Just looking at the detail in these tiny, little creatures makes me aware of how God is interested in every small detail of our lives. If He can take so much time to make this seemingly insignificant creature so beautiful, what can He do for us?!
