Always a pleasure to see what you have blooming and then how you frame it up for us to admire. <br /><br />That rain is so precious when it comes to a thirsty garden and then it adds another level of quiet beauty to photos. Just beautiful.<br /><br />Love the colors, too. And what a great capture of the hummingbird. I honestly don't think I've ever seen one (in person) sitting still like that. And you have skippers!... the others are close behind...

Good thing it does it’s blooming before it becomes swallowed up by the banana!<br /><br />Dirt Princess, <br />It sounded like a choir of angels! Hey BTW would you just believe I found out I had comments on Blotanical? I thought it would let me know by email. Sorry I didn’t get yours way back.<br /><br />Betsy,<br />Some of those daylilies can be so similar you can’t tell them apart.<br /> <br />Jan,<br />I think you are right. I did do something to the blooms. We don’t have nearly as many as we should this time of year.<br /> <br />Marilyn,<br />The Macro setting on the cameras does all the work. I just point and shoot; thankfully the new camera has a thing that compensates for shaky hands too.

That means time to work on the new bed. <br /><br />Marnie, <br />It really just depends on the light with the red. But now, my trust old DSC-F717 picked up truest red you have ever seen in a digital camera. It has a failing lcd screen on it so I only pull it out for special times. <br /><br />Lisa,<br />Sometimes the quiet times are the most special ones. :-)--RandyRandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03840964031964028578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8675228133704777909.post-36117465078828337172009-07-08T11:03:37.965-05:002009-07-08T11:03:37.965-05:00It ok to sit quietly with friends and enjoy nature...It ok to sit quietly with friends and enjoy nature.
