April Butterfly


Wow! How time flies. It's been a couple weeks since I've been here. Sorry to say that I have been busy, but not been out shooting many photos. I did catch a couple and I'll try to get a couple posted in the next couple days.


Here's one of a butterfly I spied in my front garden.

No new photos :(

Busy busy busy! No time for photos :( Hope to get back to it soon! Maybe y'all should count on Picture of the week, instead of picture of the day. Less disappointment involved.

Pear Blossom Revisited - Again


Playing more with the macro function on the camera and seem to be getting better and better shooting these up close flower blossom subjects. Hope to switch gears and find some new inspiration today.

Red Bud's a'Buddin


So much fun to walk the yard and see the daily progress of the sprouting and budding plants. I'm loving spring and daylight savings time!

Mulch Fluffin Pansy Lover


And just because someone called me a 'mulch fluffin' pansy lover', here's an other one of the toughest flowers in my back yard.

The Pear Again


Here's a somewhat more emotional photo of the pear tree outside my window for those of you who can't stand a picture just for the sake of a picture. You know who you are.

Outside my Office


A rather unremarkable picture of a blooming pear tree outside my office. My window is the middle one at ground level. The Crepe Myrtle is going to be pretty spectacular when it blooms!

Not sure how the term 'pansy' got the connotation of something weak or fragile, because these little guys are tough. The yellow and purple once survived multiple snow storms under several feet of snow at times this winter and are still going strong. The violet one is a spring to winter variety which adds a little spring color while everything else gets ready to bloom. Pansies are TOUGH!

The King of the Yard


Caught a couple good shots of spring flowers and and the pup playing in the yard. Here's my pick of the bunch.

Oldie but Goodie


This one is a couple years old, but still one of my favorites to tide you over.

Excuses Excuses

So I've been neglecting my picture posting for a couple weeks now. My latest excuse is that the hard drive on my laptop is full. Time to archive some pictures and maybe invest in an external storage device. I did have the camera out last evening and hope to get something posted later. I am thinking that I should invest some time and snap a bunch of photos so I have a reserve for those busy days that I can't get out and shoot. We'll see how that goes. Hope someones still out there checking in here from time to time.

Finally Back at It


I snapped a couple pictures yesterday after a long break. Nothing too spectacular but pictures non the less. No surprise that an old barn caught my eye. Hopefully I can keep up with a daily post again. Cheers!

Busy Busy

It's been a very busy week. I will get back to the photos after I'm settled at my new job. Forecast for some spring like weather this weekend which might be perfect for a photo shoot.

Full Moon Morning

I caught the full moon just before it slid away behind the trees for the day.

Still Plenty of Snow

The snow is subsiding and I can finally see grass in my yard again. Repeated snow storms of 1+ feet have really done a number on my landscaping. I hope the little guys pep back up in the spring. Countdown to spring = 20 days.
