Rose-of-Sharon

We sat on the deck before sunrise this morning and drank coffee. Jilda lit some incense to keep the skeeters at bay.

When the sun came up, it painted the clouds to the south, subtle hues of peach, mauve, and other shades I can't name even with the help of Google.

After coffee, we walked. While I waited for Jilda and Taz the wonder Yorkie to amble around the yard, I heard a honeybee in the Rose-of-Sharon blossoms.

I stood still for a long while trying to spot it, but I never did. I decided to snap a picture of a blossom. A breeze out of the west kept the blossom swaying, so the images I shot were blurred. I did the only sensible thing and used the stained glass filter on the image. Ok, I know I'm overusing the filter, but it resonates with me, and I can't explain why.

Happy Wednesday.
