IT IS A FLOWER AND BENEFICIAL INSECT WEEKEND!
The above photograph is a Zinnia that was part of my photo collection from the gardens my daughter and I went to in July. I have many to choose from and liked how this one came out. I saved a rose for the next photo.
I liked how the lady bug did a cameo appearance.
I finally got a picture of a butterfly this year. I had never seen this species before. According to my butterfly book it is a "Mourning Cloak" butterfly. I met a young woman and her parents who are from Venezuela, and this young woman (@ kathe-art) has a gift with butterflies. When I say young I mean he recently graduated in the third grade). I have seen photos of them landing in the hand of "@ kathe-art". I wanted to be sure and share this photo in honor of @ kathe-art's abilities with the butterflies. Maybe it helps me make them stay still so I can take a picture. (I will also put this paragraph in Spanish for her).
Finalmente pude conseguir una fotografía de una mariposa este año. Nunca había visto esta especie antes. Según mi libro de mariposas es una mariposa "Mourning Cloak". Conocí a una joven y a sus padres que son de Venezuela, y esta joven (@kathe-art) tiene un don con las mariposas. Cuando digo joven me refiero a que se graduó recientemente en el tercer grado). He visto fotos de ellos aterrizando en la mano de"@kathe-art". Quería estar seguro y compartir esta foto en honor a las habilidades de @kathe-art con las mariposas. Tal vez me ayude a hacer que se queden quietos para que pueda tomar una foto. (También voy a poner este párrafo en español para ella). gracias
Her is a large patch of marigolds. They are sometimes also knows as Calendula flowers:
Next I wanted to share this wasp which is on one of my onion plants that is getting ready to set seeds. many people are not fond of wasp, but they are very good pollinators, which as a gardener I always need something to help with pollination. Wasps are also carnivorous, meaning they eat a lot of other bugs and help keep my garden free of insects that harm my plants.
I am not sure what flower this next one is, but I found its shape and colors fantastic. I was amazed when I downloaded my photos to my computer how some of the pestles were in the shape of little hearts. I think this is a wonderful photograph to end my post.
As always I hope you find at least one thing in my post that you enjoy.
I am getting a nice rate of return delegating to their cause, and I am paid daily.
I am seeing more people using the neoxian and palnet tags in there posts, and now creativecoin. The first two are open to most posts, although creativecoin requires that there is some creativity involved in your post. I joined their discord channel and asked about my photography and it fits their requirements. Before using any of these or others as a tag be sure it fits the intent of the token. Using these when posting on steemit can help you earn money on the other three platforms, as well as steemit. If you vote on someone's post who uses these tags you probably already having earnings in respective wallets. If you have not done so, then look into those wallets and see. With the price of Steem being low the extra earnings can help a lot.
Information an another bid-bot and/or place to delegate for more earnings is found here: https://www.neoxian.city/neoxian/@zaku/introducing-neoxag-bid-bot-sink-delegate-steem-power-and-earn-neoxag-each-and-every-day-passive-profit-for-upvote-buyers. I am receiving a fair rate of return on my delegation, and it is a way to earn more NEOXAG.
I have supported these for quite awhile. I am researching newer ones, and once I feel comfortable that they are doing what they say they are doing I may include more. Each will receive a portion of earnings from this post

Wow...there are so many Calendula flowers. Everywhere seems orange and yellow color mix. Water droplets on the rose flower nice scenery. Gorgeous captures.
Thank you very much. I just noticed I forgot to upload the last photo. Hope you end up seeing it.
Yeah I looked it finally.
;o) I am not tired...I just feel that way
Querido amigo su post es maravilloso, todas estas flores son hermosas😍🌼 Feliz noche
Muchísimas gracias. Me alegro de que lo hayas disfrutado.
De nada. Gracias a usted por compartir tanta belleza
I love your zinnia is a spectacular shot, also that is one of my favorite colors, I hope you do well on your trip with your daughter, the breaks are necessary and good, and more if it is a trip hahaha, so enjoy it .
The butterfly is very beautiful, it gives me the impression of seeing the tricolor of my flag on it (and its white dots would be the stars). My daughter @ kathe-art will love it. Thanks for your beautiful words.
And I love the last picture, it really has hearts, it's beautiful and romantic! Ideal for a wedding bouquet ❤❤
I remembered you liked Zinnias...I will have more in future posts.
Yeah a break I need. I really need a few days away.
Fascinating about the white dots on the butterfly.
When I took the photo of the last flower I had not noticed the hearts until I loaded it in my editor. I love those kinds of surprises.
Seeing it in person must be wonderful.
Both flowers and insects (especially bees and butterflies) combined with each others because bees feed by flowers. So you have captured nicely them. I love it.
Thank you very much! I appreciate it.
I love the yellow rose bud, with a little bug on it.. Your photography skills are amazing, Sir @r2cornell. Thank you for sharing these beautiful flowers with us. It's very inspiring. 💕
I will be looking forward for your photos on your upcoming boat trip!
Have a beautiful day ahead.
Thank you very much. I like surprises like the Lady Bug making an appearance on the yellow rose.
I am hoping for plenty of photographs. I will have my 500 mm lens with me in hopes of seeing some eagles in the trees along the river's edge.

After 7 days later you posted, this is the another one great post dear uncle, I liked 5 number capture most.
Yes 7 days. I figured I better get it posted today. I had the photos ready to go earlier in the week, but my week was a little overwhelming. That 5th photo is spectacular isn't it.
Yes, 5ᵗʰ is surely spectacular than others.
the flowers, the butterfly and the bee are beautiful.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Great pictures Sir, I like all.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Very beautiful pictures, I prefer yellow rose. Have a nice day, sir.

Hola señor @r2cornell, que hermosa es tu mariposa. Nunca he visto una mariposa de esas acá donde yo vivo. Me gusta que tú dedicaras esa foto para mi, gracias. yo te voy a mostrar más fotos de mariposas cuando vuelva a tomarles fotos.
También me gusta la fotografía de la rosa amarilla porque tiene una mariquita muy bonita, he atrapado muchas mariquitas, con ellas también tengo un don. Me gustan mucho, hay de diferentes colores y mis favoritas son las de color rojo con negro y las de color negro con dorado.
Muchísimas gracias. Me alegro de que lo hayas disfrutado.
Algunas mariposas como la monarca emigran al sur durante los meses de invierno, pero no estoy seguro de ésta. Las mariquitas son maravillosas de tener alrededor porque mantienen nuestros jardines libres de algunos insectos no deseados. Además son muy guays de ver.
Espero ver más de tus mariposas.
Thank you very much. I am happy you enjoyed.
Some butterflies like the Monarch migrate south for winter months, but I am not sure about this one. Ladybugs are wonderful to have around because they keep our gardens clear of some unwanted bugs. Besides they are very cool to watch.
I look forward to seeing more of your butterflies.
Very beautiful flowers, and the butterfly too. I saw the girl's blog, very good. Thanks for sharing :D
Thank you very much. I appreciate it! and thank you for visiting @kathe-art blog.

Zinnia looks really very beautiful!
I also want the butterflies to stay quiet to take pictures, the only ones I have seen quiet, unfortunately their wings were wounded ...
Calendula, as this flower is called here, is used medicinally for inflammations.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Thank your the information on Calendula
Congratulations @r2cornell!

beautiful photos of nature
Thank you very much, and thank you for visiting my blog. Welcome!
Beautiful flowers, enjoy weekend, Namaste
Thank you very much.
Grandpaa @r2cornell,
I really love the butterfly and bug photography. Now I can expect some wild bird photography too. Flowers are really beautiful as well.
The very last flower photography with a very unique shade of pink color is really looking beautiful and it is really a very precise one in my honest opinion.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
I have yet to loo at my photos from yesterday's boating trip. Did see a lot of birds, including Bald Eagles, yet even with my 500 mm lens I do not know for sure how well they came out. I will try and check them out today if time allows.
Grandfather, I am very pleased this time. I feel like the butterfly and the flowers are the intimate lovers. When you bring out some photographic skills to capture a butterfly sitting on the flower, then it makes that moment very special. This time some different types of flavor to the photography and I want more of it.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Oh..wasps are also carnivorous
I was not aware of that. But I think insects are good as you can take shots of some tiny insects
Posted using Partiko Android
Thank you very much. Yes wasps eat a lot of other bugs, and can help keep garden free of pests.
Beneficial insects are damn cute and they are very delicate. I am sure you must have used some high quality lens to capture the lovely images of flowers and cute beneficial insects. During cold climate, you could find more bugs and insects. Once again a lovely blog of the weekend. Thanks you and wish you good health.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Awesome photography .
Enjoy weekend . Namaste
Thank you very much.
Inside of the rose flower I see beauty insect living. Absolutely beautiful to see every shots.
Thank you very much.
The very first flower is wonderful and deserves at the first place. I feel as if I am hovering at its top and looking at the macro details of the flowers. Not to mention, its color is unique too. As such all flowers are beautiful, but when you tend to look at the macro details through the lens, the real beauty you explore from it. That is why i love your weekend blog. This time it is even little different with insect and butterfly. So its a lovely experience to stop by.
Thank you...steem on and stay blissful...
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
One bug was trying to hide in the yellow petals of rose, but you cleverly took the shot of the yellow rose and that has really come good. Excellent photography.
About Butterfly- I can say-- awesome....
Thank you sir.
Thank you very much, and thank you for visiting my blog. Welcome!
Magnificent color of flowers and very wisely chosen by you to post in this blog. But if you ask me to rate the best one then I would choose the very last one, I m just getting transfixed by its beauty and I have no words to describe it. Thank you for bringing awesome natural colors to Steem blockchain.
Thank you very much, and thank you for visiting my blog. Welcome!
That last was turned out pretty amazing.
So many cool things happening in this post, @r2cornell.
First the Zinnia, one very common flower in my country, a lovely wild thing that comes in so many bright colors.
Second, the spanish writing. It feels great to read one's own language in someone one may consider foreign. It was a beautiful gesture. Makes people feel at home.
The butterfly itself looks magical. The flag seems to come out of its wings.
I loved the yellow rose. Not very common, but a lovely one. One of my favorite writer's favorite (Garcia Marquez). On top of that the flower came with an extra present. the cute little mariquitao the left. Perfect!
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Glad you liked the paragraph of Spanish writing. I wanted @kathe-art to easily read what I had to say without going to translator. I am learning to use one translator initially, and then running the translation through another back into English. Sometimes translations are not perfect, but I like to use them when I feel it is important.
It is and i think that whoever understand the importance of intercultural communication gains a lot from other cultures. Translators are not perfect, but are better that nothing.
That is one of the wonderful aspects of being involved with these social medium platforms; we get to learn so much about other peoples and their culture.
Ese es uno de los aspectos maravillosos de estar involucrado con estas plataformas de medios sociales; aprendemos mucho sobre otros pueblos y su cultura.
incredible photographs sir, it is difficult to capture the bee and Butterfly pic i tried so many times but failed and you did it nicely, i like the yellow flowers they are just beautiful, have a good day to you sir stay blessed and healthy
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Yes it is difficult getting pictures of many flying insects that like to stay busy. I frequently follow them around and then give up. They cooperated the day I took these.
very beautiful

Hello sir @r2cornell, nice to meet you. many flowers that you display. what I like the most is Calendula. this flower looks very beautiful. and I like the wasps that you take. for people who have gardens, wasps are very helpful in being pollinators for flowers.
I am also grateful for those of you who provided information about Neoxian. at the moment I have 1k more power in my wallet. and will continue to add it. I say many thanks for your kindness. I hope your days are always fun.

Thank you
Its a pleasure go through the pics of flowers and insects photography. Awesome clicking of nature's gift.
Thank you
I am fascinated by the nature's color and your photographic skills. How beautiful the nature is, most of the time we are not aware of that. But when I look at the pics uploaded by you, I can realize the beautiful nature around us.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Your post made me remember this:
"Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. "
Thank you @zammie for this quote. I love it.
I had never seen those beautiful flowers. Its look very beautiful. I hope that your next post will be with pontoon boat riding with your daughter & son in law. Yes you're absolutely right the last one is a wonderful photograph for best end your blog. Finally you said about posting tag! Yes after a long time i posted a travelling post on my stremit blog & using neoxian tag but i was using firstly travel & photography tag. Do you know that is that mandatory for neoxian tag at first?
I never using that planet tag but next time i do it. Hopefully it will be good for earning some steem for blogging. Thanks for the information.
Great photography
Thank you @rachel1990. Good to have you visit. Reminds me I have not checked your blog in awhile.
Those are very beautiful flowers especially the Calendula, spectacular color it has @r2cornell
I just wished that I could go to a park or a garden somewhere just to see the beauty of these types of flowers, trees, insects, and animals.
Thank you. It would be great if you could have the opportunity to see this in person, but for now at least you get to see it through someones lens.
Wwow this flower is very beautifull .and not just this photo your all photo are really beautifull .and your mind also very clear and beautifull as flower
Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind words.
