Some more Spring photos from around the yard. It won’t be long before the dogwoods and other Spring blooms will be gone. But that’s not all bad as that leads into the Summer flowers–cone flowers, dahlias, zinnias and sunflowers. Yay!

I saw this bluebird sitting up in a tree. Normally I can’t get anywhere close to these little guys, but this one let me get surprisingly close. I wish he would have turned to give me a profile so all of his beautiful blue would have shown.

Here’s hoping for a very long Spring and a very short Summer!

I’ve been thinking about upgrading my camera for a while. So Tommy and I decided since this was a big birthday, I should go ahead and do it now. I’d been reading and waiting for Nikon to come out with their upgrades. They did–one that was totally out of my price range and the other …

This was to be my entry for my photography club’s competition this month. The subject was blue. As soon as I took this picture (coming home from Wyoming in October) I knew I wanted to submit this one. I guess I’ve had so much on my mind in the past few weeks that I completely …
