Good #Twosday morning. I'm slowly digging out from busting my vending move this weekend with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. (Means I'm extra disabled by much exertion.) But it was worth it. #Flowers #BloomScrolling

A pair of cosmos flowers in full bloom from behind looking like a pair of pink and white antennae at dusk in a garden.

Happy #Twosday beeps. Keep an eye on my eBay store for this pair of sleepy bee cards to appear soon! They flew off my table this weekend barely 10 hours after producing them! (Yes I was up late Saturday night. ) + #bees #photos #Flowers #Photography

A pair of small colorful photo note cards showing a bunch of longhorn bees clinging to the tattered petals of a spent red and yellow Gaillardia flower in one. By contrast, the other shows a top down shot of six longhorn bees neatly arranged butts up in a circle around the center of a fresh red and yellow fully open Gaillardia flower. All snoozing sweetly away in both cases. Jan Groh Photograbee 2025. Taken July 2025.

Photo shows her two colorful sleeping bee photo note cards wrapped in cellophane in a table display with many other cards. Jan Groh Photograbee 2025.

3 dark pink roses surrounded by green leaves. It's been raining, so there are drops of water everywhere.

It's true. They're only just starting, finally.

BeeLover @beeloveds.bsky.social · 1d

We're only just beginning to get some tree color finally. It feels late to me compared to years past in Portland, OR. Others? #pdx #trees #leaves

A single colorful maple tree with a yellow orange and red top stands out amongst all green foliage on surrounding trees over residential rooftops in the sun. In southeast Portland Oregon.

Speaking of bees... I'll add a couple just bee-cause I love them so much. Then back to recovering here. ♥️🐝

PS if we're lucky, I *may* have a couple new super popular sleepy bee images available too! But you'll have to come see for yourself, else wait for me to get them up on eBay. (Working on it!)

Also, Multnomah Falls! #Oregon

👊♥️✌️🐝💐🐞

Ideally park in the NE lot near Marshall's off NE Halsey near 15th. But if you enter below or to the west, just come up to the 2nd level, and east past the ice-skating rink almost to the far east end by Marshalls. Look for the Ladybugs! 🐞🐞🐞 #LloydCenter #pdx #crafts #market #photograbee PS +

Sorry to be absent today, but I was busy attending a workshop after which I then got unexpectedly signed up to sell at a pop up craft market tomorrow, Sunday October 12th from noon to 5pm in the Lloyd Center mall!
The Spot Market is sponsored by Ladybug Homes ftw. +🐞 #pdx #photos #photography #art

Flyer for the Spot Market Oct 11, 12 and Dec 13, 14, 2025. 12-6pm Sat, 12-5pm Sun. Over 50 local businesses in the Lloyd Center near 15th and NE Halsey. Right pointing finger.

Photo showing the outside of the Lloyd Center mall entrance from the parking lot with a green arrow and labels reading 'Enter here!" and "By NE 15th and Halsey ". A green X marks the storefront of interest.

Photo shows closer view of a green sign to the right of the mall entrance of interest that reads "Reimagining Community". A green X marks the store of interest, and a finger is pointing left toward the entrance from the Parking lot.

The image shows a close-up of a blooming bellflower with several bees. In the foreground and in focus is a tall stem with numerous purple-blue flowers and buds. A bee is flying from the left toward the flowers, while at least two more bees are already sitting on the flowers, collecting pollen. The flowers are bell-shaped and have a bright purple color with a darker center.

Some sunsets are so beautiful that you have to stop and snap a picture!

#Photography #MobilePhotography #EastCoastKin #AlphabetChallenge #WeekOForOpulence #ColorADay #GreenSat #BlueSkyArtShow #Glow #PhotoHour #Scape #SunsetLovers #TravelPhotography #Sunset #Art

Nature is painting the sky and the clouds in the most opulent colors of orange, pink, yellow and grapefruit for sunset. In between there are the last remaining shades of the blue evening sky. On the horizon there are the silhouettes of an electric pole on the right side, then some trees in the middle and some windmills on the left side followed by another electric pole. In the foreground there’s a rural road making a turn to the left that’s flanked by green fields in the dark. The color of the vibrant sky paints hues of soft pink on the road.
