beach day

seems that blogging interesting things along with my interest in blogging is becoming more and more of a challenge to me ... neal says I am fickle.  I think he is right.

Yesterday, though, I had him snap a couple of pictures so I could, like charlotte, look them up later, at home, and identify them.  The first is an orange sulphur / colias eurytheme



the second is a red admiral / vanessa atalanta



neither one is hard to sight, but, man!  I was reading to Neal part of the description of the red admiral and it says " common.  erratic "  uhhh ... yah.  you should have seen neal ... squatting with the camera, moving all over the beach, crab-style.  it was great comic relief.  I think that was how we both got burnt.

this was my favourite picture of the whole day, I must say.  I call it " this sand is stinkin hot "  and I think it should be added to my pieces for the studio tour this fall.  price-less.  he is actually running to the blanket.  I should have moved it, just for fun times.  at least I would have found it funny.



better watch my back ...
