used the term flurry the other day to describe something...and since then I cannot get it out of my mind totally. So, out at the strip pits the other day while I was looking through my camera lens trying to decide what kind of water fowl these were, they took flight and I snapped a photo. It isn't the greatest but I like the feel of action that it gives. And I love the yellow in the background.
These yellow flowers are every place you look...I think they are a type of coreopsis...but please feel free to correct me. I was hoping to find butterflies or dragonflies on my last vist but all that seemed to be stirring were some bee/bee type insects. I saw one dragonfly and that was it.
Anyway, the flowers blow in the wind till it is near impossible to get a really good shot of them. That and the fact that I just cannot seem to capture their full beauty no matter what.
And every time I see them, I think of a song by Coldplay and wonder if these yellow flowers everywhere are God's version of the song Yellow...
Bee-u-tee-ful! Love the flurries! =)
ReplyDeletehappy weekend, Rose
I love Coldplay and have quite a few of their C.D's. The yellow flowers are beautiful!

ReplyDeleteThat is a great shot to illustrate motion, the ducks are indeed a flurry of motion. Those look like coreopsis to me, too, but I'm sure no expert.
ReplyDeleteyellow always make me think of summer & joy.....
ReplyDeleteummm flurries, make me think of SNOW!!!
I love all the golden colours this time of year.
ReplyDeletethe birds look like geese to me and i think I hear lots of honking
ReplyDeleteThe yellow flowers really are pretty right now. There are just so many of them! Must be making the finches happy. I like your flurry of ducks :-)
ReplyDeleteI remember in Kansas the wind would blow the sunflowers around so much it could be difficult to capture them, so I sympathize. But really, these look like a carpet.
