You probably had to live in the "60s" to understand the title of today's post. These photos go back to my little walk down the street to the "wild flowers" from about a week ago. I posted several from that jaunt earlier this week. A little less weird than yesterdays abstract on Phun Phriday! I still have plenty of scenic shots from my Uinta trip, including tomorrow's Sunset Sunday.
Side note - Be careful what you tell your children, they might believe you. When I was a child my dad would tease that dragon flies would sew your mouth or your eyes shut. I think I was in my forties before I wasn't afraid of these things. Of course now I think they are beautiful and I have no fear at all, but it took a while.
Don't be shy - leave a comment or email me. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hiya Scott,
Am so enjoying rummaging through your archives. This coneflower jumps out at one. So clear. You mentioned using f5.6 for DOF control in an earlier post. It seems the control here is just as good with f8. Wish I understood these settings.
Incredible photos, the flowers today and the others on your blog.
Beautiful as always. I absolutely love dragonflies.. and my memories of being a flower child wannabe. ;)
I love dragonflies and am always amazed at how many colors there are from around the world! The coneflower is exquisite! What a beautiful portrait of such a unique flower.
Impressive that the first photo!
Kisses.
You mean it's not true?? Oh.
Beautiful pictures.I wonder what I was told as a child,about grasshoppers.I am not a youngster,but still despise these critters.
Blessings,Ruth
I'm not sure what's with me lately - but I'm really drawn to orange...
beautiful images!
Really nice. I've been trying for bokeh like that, but haven't been able to achieve it yet. It seems like a simple thing, but it's kinda tricky!
I have forgotten all about that, but someone told me as a young child they would sew my mouth shut also.
Funny. And those photos, unbelievable.
A couple of real winners,my favorite though is the top one. It's good to be able to vist and spend some time on your blog instead of looking over my shoulder. Cann't wait for your post tomorrow.
I just keep scrolling back to see your photograph of the coneflower. That photograph is absolutely beautiful. I like the photograph of the dragonfly as well.
Man o Man these are beautiful. You capture my heart over and over again with your true gorgious ones.
Hugs Dagmar
Love your rudbeckia!

Hello Scott i just loved this macro shoots wonderful captures
I feel like a flower child, and your photos drew me in to that moment. WOW. I adore your macros. Such a great style, and you know all the fancy stuff. Trying to catch up on blogging. Wanted to drop by to see what you are up to. Big stuff I see...
I wish the top one was mine...WOW it stole my heart! I love these flowers and if I ever get a shot like that one it will be in my dining room in the largest frame I can get! BEAUTIFUL so BEAUTIFUL!
