I spent Friday last week in the garden watching the ivy grow. Someone has to take note of these things.

Then this dragonfly caught my attention. Every time I had the camera ready to take his portrait, he moved to some other leaf. Our game of hide-and-seek lasted a good few minutes before he smiled and said, "cheese."

Clyde, who loves cheese, has no problem with the word; and he gave me one of his best grins. He appreciates the leafy greens, too. They keep him cool and out of the sunshine. The boy has a winning smile, that's for sure.
My world is small, but I like it.

ReplyDeleteSo very beautiful, both the leaf and dragonfly and dog! :)I think you've got a brilliant photo of the dragonfly! I can see his/her cheesy smile.. :))
ReplyDeleteThat same ivy is growing up the trees in my yard. I really need to get out and cut it down.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you had a smiley day! :-)
Hi Sandy, your small world of ivy, dragonflies and happy dog is what seems to be perfect. I am glad you shared such joy.

all are smiling in your photos today, including the leaf. The dragonfly shot is really stupendous. I've never seen such detail. I don't know, I think your world is huge.
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots! Love the shining ivy leaf.
ReplyDeletecute pup! and i'd be happy to watch ivy grow, too! wish we had a better climate for it. :)
ReplyDeleteDear Sandy, I love ivy.;) This makes me think of my white house - I planted ivy all over the north facing fence a few years back and it grew beyond belief.
ReplyDeleteI miss that house at times...
Have a great week,
xoxo
a perfect Summer post!
ReplyDeleteFeels like resting in a lovely garden for a few moments and moving on refreshed, Sandy
Have a GREAT Week

A lovely positive world indeed!
ReplyDeleteI like it too!!! Clyde is a ham and I wish I could get our kids' two Aussies to pose for me like that. They're like a couple of pre-teens -- every time I take out the camera they run.
ReplyDeleteVery attractive images: the leaf, the dragonfly and the smiling dog!
ReplyDeletei feel much better knowing that you are watching the ivy!
