Well, "By Jiminy!" by Weezilou

Well, "By Jiminy!"

What a surprise to see Jiminy Cricket (bent, and complaining of a crick in his back...)! Seems the little bee has a sense of humor (or "humour", if you will...) as he plays with shadows!

"All that sleeping" I've been doing caught up with me last night... Read until 2... Watched the clock turn 3...4... Lights out... *Tried to sleep*... Gave up at 5... Hand-wrote some letters, knowing the postman is still hard at work delivering my Junk Mail... Replied to some email-letters... Took photos of flowers on the other side of the yard as the sun was rising... Drank coffee, and by 9:30 was aware that I could no longer type well... Gave up without a fight and slept until 2.

I think of how nice another cup of coffee would taste, but do believe that's a cycle of addiction, so Ken made me fresh orange juice.

Using another nasturtium from last evening's golden hour so I can move forward and finish some more email connections. Perhaps tomorrow I can get to the photos I took as the sun was rising this morning...

What day is it? What time is it? Does it matter any more? Not going anywhere...
A gorgeous sunny color

Oh, Dear Louise, I absolutely know the confusion and pain of the interruption of our circadian rhythm. I do hope it is only occasional for you, and you are up and running by now.
This is a delightful and uplifting photo for me to see first thing this morning.

What a night you had. But this is a stunning shot you captured! Wow.

What a fabulous image. I love his shadow!

Wonderful capture!!! Always great to see Bees!!

What a curious little bee. Love the colors here! I've been losing track of time time being in most of the time.

A beautiful capture of the bee and his shadow! Knockout colour of your nasturtiums- love them ! Here I am in the middle of the night tossing and turning - again! I am sleeping so badly at the moment and can sympathise with you!

@pamknowler ...and that's why I just get up, try to accomplish something...anything...and go to bed again (no more reading!) when I'm finally sleepy! Good luck with that!

@Weezilou I try not to wake the boys and Barb by wandering round especially in a strange house!

That bee's shadow is wonderful. I wonder if he notices it.
April 4th, 2020  
What a fun shot!

While the bee and shadow are very nice, the inside of the flower is mesmerizing.

Fabulous detail! Fav

I know the feeling you're describing. If we get up before noon, we call it an early day. Our twenty something kids go to sleep several hours before we do. But then again, they have to get up to work several hours earlier too. I can't believe you nasturtium are out already. I haven't seen anywhere yet. But then again, I haven't been anywhere lately. Lovely photo, excellent detail. Fav

@mbrutus Thanks for the camaraderie! Nasturtiums are so giving as they reseed themselves, mingle genetically somehow, and pop their heads up in every shade! Like Danette @danette I enjoy looking at them close up, most especially because the bees do seem to enjoy them as well! (Our postings are a bit like little news broadcasts... "Nasturtiums are heading north and should arrive in your garden in the very near future!")

Great shot! Love the colors!

Lovely macro! Sorry you’re not sleeping.

Love the colours and commentary, all very Louise. Your final sentence sums up current life for me too, the only way I know what day it is by looking at the computer. Without one's usual 'marker's it's not surprising we're all a trifle adrift and unsure, not to mention bloody scared of this virus.

Well it's certainly a bright and cheerful image -- and a lovely one at that, belying the story of your night/day! Sleep well tonight, and take care . . .
April 4th, 2020  
What a beautiful image. That shadow is amazing, and the colour sublime!
April 4th, 2020  
A beautifully timed capture, Louise! Fab color and light to brighten our day! Fav.
April 4th, 2020  
wow what a perfect perspective and shadow!
April 4th, 2020  
Empathise with this one! I have a calendar that changes picture every day thankfully. That is the only way I know what day it is! Need to catch up on my emails, I am way behind. Laundry calling me first.......

Bee-utiful :) fav
April 4th, 2020  
Wow, it’s easy to lose direction these days... But this photo is lovely, great macro!
April 4th, 2020  
Wonderful close up
April 4th, 2020  
Love that shadow :)
