Saturday.
Errands.
Bouquet at the farmers' market. Black-eyed Susans, butterfly weed, and I don't know what the purple is. (This color is exactly what the camera remembered.)
Berries, on shrub at the library.
I hope someone nice likes these berries; there are a ton of them!
Wetland beside the library. I didn't see one mosquito back there, which really surprised me. I didn't stay a long time, but a similar stay-in-one-place in my neighborhood would have resulted in a swarm attacking me. Odd, given the standing water.....
Queen Anne's lace, behind the library.
I walk Wilbur, then walk myself, as he wants to sniff every blade of grass and I need to keep moving or be eaten alive. He has really minded the heat, this summer, and I need to cover more ground than he can (or wants to, not sure which).
Japanese anemone.
Seems fitting, I think, that the lone stamen on that left-side petal looks so spermy. (As always, click on an image to embiggen.)
If I get the camera turned on before I stop walking, I can get two snaps before the mosquitoes land. No time to fuss. Pleased with composition in this shot.
Phlox.
Black-eyed Susans.

As always, loving your flower photos. I can't believe it - I have not gone to one single farmer's market this year. I've neglected doing quite a few things this summer...
Thanks!
You've had a lot on your plate, this summer!
I never want to get up and *go* to the farmers' market, but I'm always glad once I get there, and am especially glad, once I get home and have tomatoes, peaches, basil.....
Having my foodie daughter here is excellent for better farmers' market visitation. She gets up early and GOES, and I often go with her....
:-)
