Below is the original version. Do you have a preference? (let me know with a response below, if you don't mind!).
So there's today's adventure. Yesterday I found a teensy stinkbug trapped in an Agoseris puff (like a big 2½" dandelion puff) but it had escaped by this morning. Ooooooo~ big deal! (:-OStill, I am so enjoying these silent waits. Even if nothing extraordinary passes by, I feel as though by observing, considering, sketching and journaling I am more a part of the real world than I am when I sit inside at the computer all day.
Let me know what you think of the two versions above, if you don't mind.

Hi Irene.... I am so enjoying your blog and vicariously transporting myself to your "sit spots"... what a great, GREAT idea! I love the Madrone post! and I'm wondering if you avoided the poison oak?
As for the before and after Photoshop... I'm liking the sweet muted color best. I often just give a light color wash in watercolors, just to have that softness in my sketch book. Sadly, I've fallen out of the practice. My favorite spot is at a piece of beach in Santa Cruz.
Thank you for being so inspiring!
Sweet blessings, Chris
Thank you, Chris! Fortunately, I can lightly brush past poison oak and not be affected, so I try to have no contact, which means I get only a little and so far this summer I haven't "rashed up." Thanks for your opinion on the Photoshop wash.
Hope you get a chance to try your own sit spot someday. Mine has changed my life.
