Okay, to get us started. I still need to calibrate my 'Pollyanna' settings before I can turn out any joy-ful images, but I can write the word (Alphabet Art), colour it (AutoPaint), blend and wreck (Union & Decim8), texture (BeCasso oil with sliders!), rinse & repeat. :mobibabe:

Lovely...

And, *joy* can be many things... Hands dug deep in soil, a favorite book, cooking dinner... With so much negativity in the news these days I thought this would be great positive energy to put out into the Universe.
 
Every year there is a time when I have a hitchhiker with me. He or she just hop onto a window of my car and let me drive from home to work or vice versa. I have no idea what this little critter really is. It must be from the grasshopper family or crickets, but I never heard it play its instrument. Anyway these critters are some of my fancy, because they are as lazy as a chameleon when they drive with me or better as long as they attach themselves to my car. Mainly on my side window. And most of them have a longer an a shorter antenna , rarely I've seen some with equal length. I don't know if it's the difference between female/male or whether they fight to chip off the rival's feeler.
Nevertheless it seems they are intelligent. Instead of hopping across the city with all those dangers of traffic they just jump on a car to meet new friends in an unknown territory. [emoji1]
Well, another possibility is I'm driving around the same one each year and he knows where and when the best yum yums are at my place or where I work. [emoji23] and I mostly pick 'em up somewhere where grass or bushes are a couple of meters away. Strange hoppers[emoji1], but quite beautiful. Like made of glass. [emoji7]

Long story, now getting to the nitty gritty: I felt joy when I spotted Hitch One (of 2016) today at my window. We drove from work to the shopping centre and then home, where I spent a quarter of an hour to get a shot of him/her. It was getting dark when I came home, so the slightly noisy and twilighted images are no intentions, just my today's moment of joy.
Wonder if he is awaiting me in morning to drive back. I had one for three days as guest. Though I'm not completely sure it was the same, but he sat at the same spot, so I suppose he was. [emoji1]

Hitch One I - 6s+, native camera or RedDotCam, "enlighted" in cam roll editor

Hitch One II
Multicam plus macro lens. (And though this green friend was just 20-25mm long it's already too big to fit in the macro image! [emoji1]

PS: if anyone knows what it is called and tells me, I'd be glad and have another moment of joy. Couldn't find it on the internet yet.

He's beautiful! I love your first shot with all the bokeh... :inlove: I'm guessing it's a type of grasshopper.

Could be this Katydid type found in Hawaii.

Rain drops on Roses (Leaves)

Some people don't like the rain, but we needed some as the ground was hard and cracked, so this morning's rain brought me joy and a photo op. :D 6, Camera+ (Very impressed with the macro on C+) and a little bit of Snapseed lovin.

I love the rain.... Maybe because I spent the first half of my life living in the Pacific Northwest... We've been having light rain and cooler temps recently and I'm loving it!

...and wow, that's a vivid green. Really lovely image Jilly. :inlove:

Looks pretty like it! Found another similar one in wiki in German. It's called Kurzflügeliege Schwertschrecke. By word translated short winged sword cricket. But the clear brown stripe on the back is missing. Maybe she still grows and it will be clearer later. But I've learned Hitch One must be female because of the long bend egg lying tube on her backside. [emoji4]
