Default In the Daisy Patch!

Here are a few more from the Daisy Patch across the street from our home. They tore down a building and in it's place, Daisys! cool Idea. It won't last though Korean always build something new and build it quickly. I could go over there next week and find a car dealership. l.o.l

This one is not the best shot, but I loved the Bokeh.

There were lots of Dragonflys flitting aroung, but I only got one to stop for a visit.

Love those daisy patches, and who needs neighbors when you have flowers! I like the bokeh of your third one for the colors and the spectral highlights. You may have only captured one dragonfly, but it was gold-plated, very pretty and shiny. Excellent in every way and I certainly enjoyed looking at them.

I am so glad you were able to capture these little beauties before the land was developed on again. They are waaaaay nicer looking than a car dealership yard.
