Walk the shore I

This is going to take some time.. ;) Lots of pictures and little time to edit so I’m throwing
some crumbs in, whenever I got something.
In short – this walk(s) (again) took me to Lake Louisa State Park – my favorite hangout and
where I find so much of my images. The weather the last days was just drop dead gorgeous.
Cool in the morning (in the low 60’s – hey it’s Florida – so the 60’s can be called cool down here)
and combined with a pleasant breeze somewhere in the mid 80’s during the day – the last days
of spring here in Florida. No a cloud in the sky – and all of that automatically puts an extra
spring in your step.
So enjoy a couple of images.

    The cypress swamp is so very cool! Love them all, but the button bush is really something. You’ll see that blue dayflower on a card pretty soon – thanks for naming it. We didn’t know what it was – it was back in the woods behind our house.

    That first shot is really different and just something about it I love. The small blue flower – lovely! Dragonfly on the camera? How cool is that? And the butterfly has such color and detail – wow!

    Beautiful walk! I want to see trees like those again, dripping with Spanish Moss. How I miss the south! Beautiful sparkly detail on the dayflower. We have those and Button Bush here, too. Can you believe that dragonfly!?!? I guess he wanted you to take his picture? ;-) Gorgeous black Swallowtail!!

    Wonderful stuff here Klaus I especially love the dragonfly (skimmer species?) perched on your lens. I guess you have a very accomplished accomplice!
