Hooray, summer's here, and that means it's time for dragonflies once again! I didn't do a whole lot of photography over the spring and early summer, but now I've been picking it back up with a lot of trips to Steinmetz Park to see the dragonflies. I do have new photos to post--most excitingly, a Great Spreadwing damselfly (it was huge)!

A bit of news: I've graduated finally, and have gotten a summer job doing computer programming for the biology professor I've mentioned before, who does research with dragonflies. So I'm getting as big a dose of dragonflies as I can stand. I'll be entering grad school in August, going for a PhD in math, and I've got an apartment and everything. Gah, it almost feels like I'm entering the real world!

In the meantime, hopefully I will have some time to be more active here on DA and catch up on all the commenting I need to do.

Thanks for sharing the tulip pattern!! I had to chop it up a bit to be able to use it for one of the 12" square blocks I've been making. (Bigger project: [link])
I think you'll still recognize it, although my background color and choice of green could have been a good bit better. It is in my notebook on Ravelry, but I had a feeling it might be a while before you discovered that if I didn't mention it directly. Next time I do this I'm going to purl the first row of each color so I can work and see the image stitches on the RS as I make them and also be able to compare them to the chart at the same time. Otherwise, I'd always favor maximizing the k and minimizing the p. Not a criticism, just a preference. Probably never would have thought of there being a difference or choice if I hadn't first worked with a pattern that did it the opposite way.
