A very cool wet spring delayed the emergence of many wildflowers but they will not be deterred.

Thanks for the shout out, thinking it could be Gerronema strombodes

This could be Gerronema strombodes at least from appearance but would depend on your region; found throughout southern US east of Texas. Neat find!

So true, Lori! The undersides of many mushrooms and polypores are always worth checking out. Some are quite dazzling 😊

Could mean a few different things, and there are fixes. A good computer tech will be able to get your data even if the hard drive is shot. I've had numerous computers blow up on me over the years and never lost any of the data.

Does it start and just won't complete the start up, or does it not power up?

Thanks Larry, so very kind of you to say that. I only started 4 years ago & a lot of my early photos were pretty rough. Just takes practice & finding your sweet spot with techniques that work best for you, as well as subjects that really motivate you. You'll get there but make sure you have fun!

I learned today, through trial and error, that if you’re building a feed based on a hashtag, you don’t put the # in front of it in the builder thing. I have deleted and rebuilt the #PhotographyBreak feed.
Have a nice weekend! πŸ’§πŸ€
