Photo Opportunities come at the oddest times. I was washing dishes when I noticed this little guy flew up and stuck on a plant. The colors in the bubble were reflections on the floaties outside the window in the pool.

Wow! I'm surprized the bubble lasted long enough for you to grab your camera! Great capture!

  This is a beauty, Cheryl. You have a great eye. I wonder if you considered lassoing the shadowed section on the left and brightening up the color in that area a bit?

  Hey Judith, thanks for the comment, and you know what? I never even noticed that dumb shadow and I'm sure that would help alot. I will work on that asit would be a great improvement. Thanks
