Hot Texas Wildflowers in August (Wildflower Photo Blog)

Hi Everybody!!
No, You are not lost, I just changed the arrangement at the top and put a new image to replace my faded glory self!
So come on in. I have a nice, peaceful agenda for You tonight. By the end of the page, I hope you feel like running through fields of wildflowers!!!!!


Welcome to my friends and new friends as you find Us. This Blog is for the purpose of alternative reading on the Social Media and Internet. Everyday, You will be exposed to information and have the opportunity to look at it or not!
Most of the research information on subject is from the site: Wikipedia, as they are a free site who encourage sharing of information. Also, I present a video lineup from the site: You Tube.
The majority of photos presented here are by ME!  I have been featuring some of my friends photostudies also.
The remaining photos you will see are always credited to where they came from with links to original site.
It is not my intention to steal anything from anyone. I use all digital data from public sites on the internet. Anyone could look up the same stuff I do. I just try to make it easier here to present a bigger picture than you would see normally as most people do not take the time to look it all up!


I remind You that I do not make any money from the Blog. I do not sell anything on the Internet (Period.) The Blog is not for Sale. The Blog is not and never will be printed.


Some sites I have reshared information have changed there policy on "sharing".
I have featured stories from Space.com in the past. Those stories and photos can no longer be shared on brendasue's blog. Not to worry, You can find them shared anywhere else, but my Blog. The logo can no longer be copied or pasted, so from now on I will refer to NASA as
ASSA9, so as not to infringe on their copyright rules. I am so sure my Blog was a big threat to them!


If anyone else sees that I have used any secret information, simply ask me to take it off. Thank You.


Now Back to my Post for You tonight!

Summer Favorite: Black Eyed Susan

Rudbeckia hirta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rudbeckia hirta, the Black-eyed Susan, with the other common names of: Brown-eyed Susan, Brown Betty, Brown Daisy (Rudbeckia triloba), Gloriosa Daisy, Golden Jerusalem, Poorland Daisy, Yellow Daisy, and Yellow Ox-eye Daisy. It is a flowering plant in the familyAsteraceae. It is an upright annual (sometimes biennial or perennial) native to most of North America, and is one of a number of plants with the common name Black-eyed Susan with flowers having dark purplish brown centers. Black-eyed Susans can be established, like most other wildflowers, simply by spreading seeds throughout a designated area. They are able to reseed themselves after the first season.

The roots but not seedheads of Rudbeckia hirta can be used much like the related Echinacea purpurea. It is an astringent used as in a warm infusion as a wash for sores and swellings.[citation needed] The Ojibwa used it as a poultice for snake bites[5] and to make aninfusion for treating colds and worms in children. The plant is diuretic and was used by the Menominee and Potawatomi[6][7] Juice from the roots had been used as drops for earaches.[8]
The plant contains anthocyanins.

The Sun Has Changed. It is Larger. It is Hotter. (Sun Photo Blog)








The following video is an addition to this page this morning 7-28-2012. New Activity Just Push Play



Hi Everybody:


As You know, many things have been going on in Space Weather this July.
I do not understand what is happening, but I know big changes are happening on and outside of Earth. The Sun has changed. Three days ago, I went down to my sunset road to shoot the sunset as something was different about the Sun. It was too bright and too big for this late in the evening. So I went to see for myself. 
I have been photographing sunsets from this location on a regular basis for 3 years.  I am not a Scientist or Professional Photographer, but I am a skywatcher and amateur, hobbyist Nature Photographer. The Sun has changed. It is larger and hotter. The day is longer. I would like to know what is happening. The video lineup will shed some light on some of the concerns.

Your photostudy tonight will be of my sunset photoshoot on July 24, 2012.
This is my final sunset photoshoot. It has never been this hot and big before so close to the ground. I could see with my eyes some dots around the sun, moving. I got some on the photos. I could see other things, but I do not know what I am seeing. It is my hope someone out there will find out what is going on. If anyone wants to come stand in this location and see the dots, let me know. I have seen them off and on for 2 years, but never as many as I could see on the 24th. These dots have got to be bigger than earth. I just don't know. I will mark the ones with dots. Have a look:
 very bright this close to ground. this image has no zoom. this is a big open ranch



 a very, very  bright cloud

















 It has never been this white (hot) this close to the ground.













 There is one dot below sun and maybe 2 above it
