parvum opus

Sometimes I stop, stunned suddenly to discover dazzling things the existence of which I never suspected.

I liked the white and yellow against the blue sky
Was hard to get w/out buildings in the background
And b/c it's been some time since the last and I've got a long way to go to reach 1000 ;-):

One of those lucky timing incidences - caught Peaches looking up through a break in his bubblenest. I've mentioned Peach's bubblenest before but don't think I've posted any pix. He blows each tiny bubble and then places them together. He works at it quite diligently and when the room is quiet, I can hear soft popping sounds.
