I have a great camera but let me tell you, it is not what the camera can do, but what the nut behind it can do – I am not a photographer – but I love to take pictures.  My cousin posted some beautiful photos of a dragonfly she captured.  They were amazing.  I was so enchanted by these photos I decided to stop quilting and take a stroll through the yard to take some pictures.  (Notice hers are photos, mine are merely pictures!)  I did not have any dragonflies in the yard, but I did find a bee pollinating the lemon blossoms, this is the 2nd or 3rd bloom set this year and I think we already have a couple hundred lemons going.  So here is my attempt at sharing some “pictures” with you!

Trying to capture the wings of the bee – but I don’t want to interrupt his very important work!

The hubby’s peppers are thriving – we will have lots to share!

Blueberry bushes in large pots – they are putting out a bumper crop this year!

My Passion Vine – I love this flower!

The Gardenia is getting close to sprouting fragrant flowers

Little Toot’s Rose she planted a few weeks ago – she gets so excited over the blooms!

These little beauties are not from the yard – I wish they were – but they are very pretty!
