Somebody hit a snooze on the little kitty! What else to do on a lazy afternoon after lunch?

I’m usually scared of spiders. However, this mister was genuinely interested in posing for me on one of my flowers in the garden. So I thought, why not! Nevertheless, it still looks so scary, doesn’t it?

This looks like a cross between a decorated pillar from a palace from the past and a fabric with rich Indian traditional designs. Bright colors and vibrant, glittering designs all speak of this rich and beautiful mix :).

Couldn’t resist glittering gold paint to enhance the richness of the bold colors used.
