Wings

Fragile creatures of a small blue planet, surrounded by light years of silent space.
~ Jeanette Winterson

I think dragonfly wings are pretty awesome.

  4. The shimmer is magical on those wings isn't it? Dragon flies visit us in late July through the first week in September. Thanks for sharing your friend with us now. Such a beautiful photo.

  18. We don't see many dragonflies here in Arizona (lack of water, I presume) so this is a special treat to see this beautiful specimen.

    The new color on your blog just yells "Spring!"

  21. Kerri,
    This reminded me of a boat ride we took up the Silver River. A beautiful dragonfly landed on a faerie tattoo on my back like it was really checking it out. Awesome experience! Great photo!

  36. Lovely photo and very deserving of your POTW mention!

  37. It's just beautiful! Doesn't it look as if it is forged out of stained glass? Too perfect to be real, yet it is real.

    Long ago and far away I took a class in the examination of myths and fairytales. One of the things that was discussed was that many myths about faeries, tiny winged beings flitting to and fro, may have been inspired by either hummingbirds, or dragonflies.

    It's easy to believe, isn't it? It's easy to believe in creatures from fairytales when you see something that impossibly perfect and lovely.

    Thanks for sharing! Congratulations on your post of the week mention over at Hilary's blog.
