carried by the wind

No, the damselfly won't be shying away.

It looks charming in your header.

Beautiful, Jo...is this one of the white flowers that fluttered so much at the Palace of the Legion of Honor. I still haven't used those photos! I'd like to go back there and see what they're like when it isn't so windy.

I like this one. The yellow and the white go so well together. This closeup makes it feel like a world wrapped in white silk.

Excellent Macro shot. I adore dragonflys, especially here in Florida. I see several variations of them everyday.
