Hi. Hey. Looks like new folks are joining me on my micro- & macro- adventures. Grateful to share with you. My motto-motivations are: Change your focus, change your life. & If I love it, I want you to love it, too. ~•~ Sedgesitter (Platycheirus) on sagebrush (not a sedge but we land where we can).

A darkish fly with a metallic sheen perched on a sagebrush leaf. It is a side view with large dark red eyes, abdomen slightly curled in and wings flat against it back. There appears to be a bristle appearance over the body.

You’ll also find me far too poetic about the entirety of the cosmos - near & far. L- Eupeodes, a hoverfly, on Golden Poppy. R- Helix Nebula, a planetary nebula. These photos are the same thing just arranged differently. All that we are -elements, particles, charges- are the same here as out there.

A hoverfly or flowerfly licking nectar off of the stamens in an orange poppy. The fly has a black and yellow abdomen and large reddish eye. There’s two tiny antennae on its head.
