    You’ve done a lot, wow. How did you decide to settle in Dallas? Where else in the states have you been ?

      Decided on Dallas because of a job offer. I grew up near Houston so it wasn’t too big of a move. As for travel in the U.S. I’ve been to Florida quite a few times, driven through much of the southern states. I’ve also visited New Mexico, New York, New Jersey, Nevada. Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Hawaii. I haven’t done as much travel within the U.S. lately but I’m hoping to change that this year. Thanks for following 🙂

    Welcome to my blog and – thanks for the grin of the year:
    WARNING: If you ideed are terrified of butterflies, my blog may look like a minefield out of Vietnam 🙂 as I’m very into macro photography – especially through summer. And the butterfles has somehow learned that I’m not that dangerous, more a part of nature and they are willingly posing in front of my camera. One was actually landing on my glasses whilst I was wearing them! No picture of that, of course! But – you will find a lot of macro shots from butterflies, spiders, different flies and other insects that wished to play a part in this macro world of ours.
    Nearly 8000 pictures await you, nearly all in ‘full screen’! Please enjoy!
