June 5th

I am terrible at posting/sending requested pictures for people. One thing I've noticed is that I am better about it if I am to post it on this blog. Not sure why. These sunset photos I was meant to post on Facebook forever ago. Oops!

Red Rocks again

Morrison, Colorado

When I'm feeling really chilly in the midst of winter, I like to change my desktop wallpaper to that of deserts and super warm-looking settings.

I think, by the time I am thirty, I will no longer be complaining about heat, ever. I used to really dislike it, but now as each winter passes, the summer heat becomes more and more desirable. We'll see, maybe this summer will turn out to be ridiculously hot now that I've said that.

Now, this little creature I spotted on the sign directory at the entrance of McGill in Montreal. It's very interesting to watch them move about. I was thrilled to have already discovered my super-macro setting for this. :D

Another sunflower

:O)

We didn't have quite as much haze from the CA/UT fires today as we did yesterday, but the sunset was still pretty (and maybe enhanced from the smoke still?).

Ladybugs!

I guess the unusual amounts of rain we have been getting this summer have caused an infestation of ladybugs! Apparently Jefferson County has a notable amount of them (at least, enough to be mentioned on the Today Show a few weeks ago). I've noticed more than usual but this past weekend I saw the swarms of them that I've seen in other people's photos...
