Very nice! Love how the dragonfly is carefree and the thunder is hopeful. A neat reversal of expectation.
ReplyDeleteI take no credit. It was an experience I had just this past Sunday morning. Nature is truly an inspiration.
DeleteLuv the contrast of delicate dragonfly against the thunder clap
ReplyDeleteMuch love...
