Description
Sally Ride was the First Lady of Americas space program. She was the first American woman in space and passed away today of pancreatic cancer at the age of 61. In 1983, she blasted into space, on the Challenger space shuttle, at the age of 32. She had a second Challenger flight in 1984. An old photo and zoom works well!
I was infected with a nasty virus Friday, scrubbed my hard drive clean, fired up my external drives and rebuilt my laptop from scratch. A 20 hour marathon followed by 10 hours of sleep. My mind is still very angry and I do not understand why virus creators do not put their talents toward something that would benefit humanity.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

PURE BEAUTY
A beautiful dedication to this very brave woman, it must take a lot of courage to go into space. You sound to have had a nasty virus on your computer but I'm glad you were able to fix it. I wouldn't know where to start. I agree that the virus creaters could do so much good for the world instead of causing so many problems.
it can be a pain redoing computers but windows 7 goes very smooth at least for me. beautiful lily and dedication. I had not heard about her passing. a national hero for sure
Very beautiful and touching dedication to Sally. Now she is free to soar the universe, unhindered by the earthly coils that keep us grounded. Ride, Sally. Ride!
Very beautiful image Dana, loved the colors, sweet dedication!
Heard this news on the ride back to "The lost coast" today. A beautiful tribute...oh and what Mike said! :~
A brave pioneer. I feel like you do about those evil people.
A lovely lily and a lovely dedication. I hate the virus creators too can't see the point of it, glad you got sorted out and hope you didn't lose anything.
Superb capture.
Superb macrophoto !
A beautiful tribute to a fine lady, dear Dana. I am sorry you had computer problems, Glad all is well again. Hugs for all day. Di. xx
Nice dedi Dana! I understand the problem as I am still working around a virus and have yet to take my new computer out of its box where it has been sitting for a month already! If I had the fellow that created that virus here with me right now, he would never make it out of this room alive! I think they are like some of the trolls on this site who spread their venom but never post anything themselves. They are people who cannot create anything and resent those who can, so they try to build themselves up by bringing others down to their level, but they are too stupid to recognize their ploy never really works.
A lovely dedi Dana, I saw on the news last night that Sally Ride had died. Hope you didn't loose all your work on your comp, makes me so mad!! xx
beautiful Dana, it positively glows.
Sensational looking Lilly.
what a colorful flower, nice pic Dana,
Beautiful dedication to a remarkable woman.
marvelous flower and dedication
Lovely shot and dedi, Dana; glad you survived the virus. I'm with the hate-mob who'd have the virus builders on a pike!
Beautiful flower for a pioneer woman, excellent capture! :)
Fantástica foto a flor é maravilhosa belas cores.+++++++++++5 Fabulosa dedicatória
beautiful lily for a great woman
She's now forever where she wanted to be ....(smiles)....Sweet capture Dana and wonderful Dedi!..
This is a very lovely and warm dedi to a very brave lady. Thanks for the 'Jay Walking' video, very funny.
Beautiful lilly shot!
Good and sharp, ful colors.
An outstanding photograph in dedication to an outstanding woman, Dana. I thought at first that when you mentioned virus that you had come down with an influenza bug of some sorts, but still able to fix your computer.
A great photograph of this lilly in tribute to Sally Ride,a dedicated space explorer.
Out standing macro and contrast of colours, very kool ! I agree, why the f..k don't hackers do something useful with all that skill ? Neat tribute & ~Cheers~ p.s. check "Liliths Baby" animation for more Giger inspired work.
