I have always loved flowers. I planted several roses at my parents place before moving out, a few have survived my leaving. Since I've purchased my own home. I've planted more than 17 bushes. There were many Rose of Sharon bushes that were already planted at the house. They have been really attracting the butterflies and bees. I needed a quiet evening a few weeks ago. So I sat still and watched, and of course photographed God's wonder in action as the butterflies and bees loaded up on the pollen to spread some love.

I want to know who's reading my blog! How many show up here?

I'm also thinking about getting one of these images printed HUGE (way bigger than an 8x10). Maybe even entering it in an art competition held locally each fall. So leave a comment below to vote on your favorite butterflies/bees photograph to help me decide which image(s) to print.
