Last of 5 posts: Photos taken while camping Memorial Day weekend in Horseshoe Lakes Preserve, one of many Thousand Trails/NACO campgrounds.
Our 290-acre home preserve in Vermillion County, Indiana, is named for its large horseshoe-shaped lake, surrounded by 10 smaller spring-fed lakes. This is where I shot the dragonfly I use for my gravatar.
I originally set out to photograph these blooms but changed my focus when I spied these love bugs.
If you look closely, you will find one of the bugs contemplating the big leap! My focus is a little off but I did get in some practice trying to shoot from the ground up. Oh, well, practice makes perfect.

Love bugs: what fun. We have a species of them here in Texas, too. The plant appears to be a type of yucca; is that what it was?
Yes, Steve. Although I am not sure which, maybe filamentosa or flaccida. Thanks for commenting.
