Seven days...

Makes one weak...

Some southern baptist humor thing... whatever.

It's been a week and feels like a month since I've been able to read or post. There was a wedding, a band's promo shoot, 5 baseball games, and working with the editor getting ready for the country music festival in about 2 weeks. All this and that little 40 hour a week job....

Anyway, you guys have been posting some great stuff. Here's some from around the house today, I decided to take a break

Nice macros. That 3rd one looks like a big one on the outside of my LCD!

Hope life get less hectic for you (I think). Although being very busy can be very good too

[AmberC]

Great shots! I really like the third one tho a lot!

Thanks folks.

Being busy can be good...

Honestly, I would rather be doing something other than sports and weddings. Guess you gotta pay your dues though and N/W doesn't come as easy as the others for me. It's cool though I'm going on vacation in a few days.

Great shot's Payn! I have to agree with Amber, the third shot would be my favorite from these.

I agree the 3rd is..... very nice!(in my best Borat impression) The BG really makes it stand out. I like the 1st one best.Nice vibrant color.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Wow - you have those bugs about the house !!

Yep, I have several small gardens designed to draw insects and butterflies. This is the first spring since setting it up, so we'll see how it goes. So far, I have counted about 15 different types of insect and a praying mantis has left it's young on one plant. The total mantis count is 9 as near as I can tell.

Roger - NG does not accept submissions, and I would never even try at least not for a few years from now. But, thanks for the compliment!!

Thanks for all the replies everyone.
