Common Blue Damselfly upon a rain-soaked Shasta Daisy.

It has been said that s/he who laughs last, laughs best. Can you guess why publishing this made me laugh out loud?
You regulars get it, right?
Right?!?!?
The Saturday Centus prompt is in bold red type. Because I'm anal-retentive, in a good way, there are exactly 50 other words on the post before my PEACE sign-off image.
Simply beautifully captured shots...lovely!
ReplyDeleteWonderful colors and right clear lines. Great !
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos !
ReplyDeleteNow I want to know what your regulars know too !
These macros are so beautiful that I could cry of envy, not laugh.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a regular but still curious.
Beautiful pictures! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't find the peace sign.
LOVE the Peace sign...you are so creative with your photography. I am still pondering the cryptic message..now I'm gonna have to be a regular to figure it out!!! I actually don't mind at all as your photos are so beautiful. I went straight to the ocean section as that is my passion!

ReplyDeleteSeriously good photographs Cheryl but I don't get the cryptic message either.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why you are laughing, but I do adore the beauty of your shots!
ReplyDeleteThese are stunning shots - they didn't make me laugh but I certainly smiled in appreciation:-)
ReplyDeleteYour photos remind me of Georgia O'Keefe paintings!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what your regular readers no. *stamping foot*
ReplyDeletewow! phenomenal shots....love them all...:)
ReplyDeleteso beautiful..stunning shots..I too have lavender hosta in my garden.
ReplyDeletefollowing you.
ReplyDeleteThese photos are top notch, so vivid and evocative of sunshine feelings! I love them. Is there a peace sign involving a dragon fly?
ReplyDeleteNamaste..........cj
Well, I started a comment, but clicked on the damsel fly to get a better look, and had to start the comment over!...I'm not a regular, so I'm not sure why you're laughing, but could the damsel fly be looking at the sun from the daisy?
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots!
Laughter is, and so are lovely flowers and their delightful friends of so many bug families!
ReplyDeletehmmmm, well, I, for one, am so lost, I don't know where I'm lost FROM ! :))
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, tho..sure enjoyed seeing them.
xo bj
no, I don't get it.
ReplyDeleteHallelujah, it truly is! =) Wonderful captures!
ReplyDeleteI thought I was a regular but I've got nothing. Maybe I'll come back and peek in the morning after I've had my sleep.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photography as always.
That lavender hosta is stunning!
ReplyDeletebeautiful pics, I so want a new camera now
ReplyDeleteVery nice macro shots. Love all your photos.
ReplyDeletePeace, Cheryl.
ReplyDeleteOh, for Pete's sake!! Where is it?????
That draginfly is gorgeous, but the shot of the hosta is my favourite!! I have never looked at them closely, but I can see I am going to have to crawl around on the neighbours' laens and check out the view...
ReplyDeleteI like the blueness of the hosta.
ReplyDeleteYour first photo is so wonderful and clear. Love it.
ReplyDeleteomg! i'm a regular and i am not getting the crypitic ... maybe it's just me ... but wow, those shots are amazing!
ReplyDeletewow, these are stunning macro, I love the first one.
ReplyDeleteOh I just love that first shot with the dragonfly! I am always so inspired by your photos!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm a regular.
ReplyDeleteA really dumb one.
(in my defense, I am sleep-deprived)
;)
Coming back to say I just became your 185th follower...YAY...
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots!
ReplyDeleteI love the dragonfly one. He looks like he's leaning on elbows on the left side and picking from the daisy on the right. :)
Thanks for trying to email me the answer...not sure why the link did not work. My mind has still been trying to figure it out, so if you get a chance, can you email me at given2fly46@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteThanks soooo much!
Gems xx
Such beautiful photos! Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI love the photos and the PEACE sign...and your perfect word count! Well done!
ReplyDeleteCheryl, is that dragon fly in the first one playing dead while you shoot that with a macro? Is that why you laughed?
ReplyDeleteBreath taking photos. Enjoyed your commentary too. laurie
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I know I've been a little out of touch as late, but I would have called myself "a regular", if asked...
ReplyDeleteBut I don't get it...?
Well, beautiful photos, anyway. :)
Beautiful picture, especially love the last one:)
ReplyDeleteWonderful Centus!
ReplyDeletehinder the tremors
Well your photos are gorgeous but I'm not having much luck figuring out the joke. My only guess is the damselfly is actually a dragonfly that is either taking a sun bath or is quite dead. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome pics...love it :)
ReplyDeleteYour captures are fabulous! Love the damselfly. I can't talk mine into holding still long enough for a portrait. As for the joke, we'd tell them, but then we'd have to kill them. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYour bio makes me laugh. I think you would be a great and interesting person to know personally. Meantime, I love your blog - your photo's really are amazing and frame-able. Now I'm going to look those pictures over again and figure out all the riddles.
ReplyDeleteSo why are you laughing? Hmm... because you're crazy?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photographs. Other than the 'damselfly that isn't', I don't know what the joke is. I have however, just signed up to be a regular ;-)
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm not getting it! But I always like your peace sign!
ReplyDeleteAnd I always like reading your links...and this is the first time I didn't 'get it', so I'm feeling all kinds of mopey and not wanting to LOL at ALL!!!!!
