The new pedestrian walkway between Lafayette and West Lafayette is a nice area but also rife with all sorts of spiders looking to make their living. Sadly the wind was mind-blowing on this day so it was tough to get any of the subject matter to sit still for long, but one exception was this small fly or moth caught up for the last time.

Note the right-of-way sign that's almost entirely under water. Normally this would be a jogging path.

These fanciful yellow mushrooms, maybe Boletinellus merulioides(?) (for the record, mushroom identification is harder than it would seem) were recently mulched over so they were barely protruding from the surface.

They're missing the gills of the typical 'shroom.

I love dandelion seeds. They seem so innocuous but they're really terrible barbed little devils. All the better to snag on something as you're flying through the air, I suppose. (Click the link to see the ultra close-up version.)

The neighboring trees (some sort of Apple or Crabapple perhaps) are just awash with blooms. The perspective in this shot makes it look as if they go on forever and ever.

Seems to be missing an arrow. All users yield to flood.

Closing with this picture of Laura. For some reason it just really appeals to me. Huge sun flare on the left, simple composition and completely candid.

I like that last one, too. Some of the best pictures I've ever taken include sunflare.
I loved the underside of the mushroom, too.
Holy Noah, that's a lot of water.
Love the last one as well, something about not knowing that we're being photographed makes us all the more beautiful. :)
Good photo of the first decade of this century -- everyone in their phones in spare moments... (myself included)
If you don't have a smartphone it might look like some Sci-Fi horror where all of a sudden little machines are CONTROLLING ALL THE PEOPLE!! AAAAHHHHHHH!! Run for the hills!! The cell phone towers are mind-control transmitters!! :)
