Another year, another robin’s nest. I love the eggs. I love seeing them hatch but I hate sharing my deck once they do hatch because I have to limit my chill time. Gonna be a few weeks with these loud needy babies but it’s all good. Update: I went to peep out at the nest […]

You came into my life & stole my heart and I love you more every day. Now it’s you that I am dreaming of. I want you more than words can say. I need you more each passing day… When I think of you. The words that you say to me… They drive me crazy. […]

While searching for an image of a rose that photographed 6 years ago (that I never found), I stumbled across this long forgotten image of a tiger lily from one of my old gardens taken in 2006. They were some kind of hybrid double tiger lily that I loved. Finding this made me smile and […]

I can’t remember the last time I pulled out my camera to take macro photos of flowers. It was quite fun & relaxing to do these photos with begonias from my garden. A nice throwback to one of my first photography passion. I only photographed 3 flowers but I took over 60 photos. I went […]

Late this spring, I started a new exercise plan that included cardio & weight lifting 3-4 times weekly in addition to daily power walks with the goal of 10 miles per week. It started off rough but after a month, I was really in my groove! Once I hit my stride, I significantly increased my […]

My King Tut Papyrus plants are going crazy & I’m loving it. The stalks make for cool cuts in a vase & they last for several days. Simple summer pleasures!

What’s not to love about tiger lilies? Especially bright pink ones… Actually, the lilies in my garden are your standard range variety but sometimes when I’m processing images, my mind wonders, then I tend to chop & screw colors like Michael Watts does beats. Life would be the bomb, if you could alter reality with […]

As I made my way home this evening, I decided to stop to pick some wild sunflowers. They are all over the place creating small seas of sunshine. Once I got home, I took a few photos to unwind. As I wrapped up, I heard this rapid buzzing sound. When I looked up, I was […]

For shits and giggles, I used an iPad as a light table to illuminate this white henryi trumpet lily. I, then took a few photos of it with my iPhone using Camera+. After I was done playing with Camera+, I realized that I should capture this with my “real” camera. This was a fun & […]
