I won’t be doing that. I am taking a break until November, nothing serious but I’m very busy and a break is needed. I will be back.

Nose to the Grindstone
Nose to the grindstone is not a phrase I am partial to, having seen a grindstone. But this bee fits the phrase as commonly used.

Wrong
Some of the leaves are out of focus and overexposed and the background is imperfect. But I doubt any of that matters, It’s a tulip after all.

Evil Incarnate
It seems evil is easier to see for some than for others. Ignoring it tends to bite you in the rear sooner or later.

Dragonfly
Dragonflies have been rare this year, or at least I haven’t seen many. The black dot on its eye is where the lenses of the eye focused on bright light.

Turning One’s Back
Now is not the time to turn one’s back in hope that things will change. We need to speak up any way we can.

Cabbage White
This butterfly is mainly black and white with the exception of its eyes which are green. In black and white the eyes were highlighted better than in colour.

Crazy Windows
Black and white helped me highlight the centre window using selective brightness and contrast.

Screech
Some bird calls are less pleasant than others, more like a screech. On the other hand if that’s what it takes, by all means screech.

Wasp
I would not be surprised if wasps, like this, inspired some of the Star Wars costumes.

Discipline and Leadership
Leadership builds cooperative teams and results in loyalty, pride, productivity and often safety. Too much discipline, too many rules of behavior, at their worst kill spirit and motivation.

Bee in Flight
I didn’t have time to change my depth of field or shutter speed, so this was a lucky shot. Plus it has a surreal black and white TV look to it.

Female Merganser
A long lens got me close to this duck. She was fishing, diving deep in the water and coming up for air.

Stormy
I guess this bird feels like most us, hovering over a precipice waiting for disruption or commonsense to prevail.
