The beauty in the everyday....

Not just you with problems...
Sometimes let's me, others not, sometimes use drop and drag, sometimes it post 3 at once, sometimes it just works...

I'd ring up the IT depth but it's one of those 'Intermittent Problems'...

I know.

And I know I'm not the only one.

Tbh I cba to go thru all the procedures that are supposed to ensure success .

I just take what comes as some kind of sign from 'On high'..

"Today is a picture posting day"..

Or else it's - not ..

Which is a shame as I found a very beautiful bug in the spinach the other day ...

Keep witnessing the everyday beauty tho.

Oh , and then suddenly I can.. :-)

Anyone know what it is??
Quite magnified here


In real life it's about the size of an ant .

I'm thinking / hoping it's a young lacewing / hoverfly..

I think your correct, unlike so many, and its a Shield Bug rather than an insect.

You may be right..

We do get a lot of shield bugs here, aren't they beautiful, and no bother to crops neither??
..
I guess they've got to start out as very wee.

[Gillstay]

Sorry i was not clearer. many people call all insects bugs when they are not. Pedants of the world unite !

Eucalyptus, taken August last year. Unfortunately the branch on the left came down in one of the recent storms (you can see previous damage on it).
