Today would have been Terry’s 63rd birthday. I was never sure if he liked this day because it was his birthday or that he liked to celebrate Cinco de Mayo (you know–drinking beer!)

A Few More Photos
Here are a few more shots taken over the past days. The view—I never tire of looking at it or taking photos of it. This was just down the road from the barn (Uncle Bob said it was a shed and he knows because he’s from the farming area of south Chicago) that I submitted …
A Moment in Time
There was an article in the NY Times (thanks for finding this Tommy) about photographers world wide contributing photos taken at a particular Moment in Time. For those of us in EST we were to take a picture at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday, May 2. Tommy and I left the house about 9:30 and headed …

We’re Being Overrun!
Our whole neighborhood is overrun with dandelions this year. Of course most people look at them and think, “Ugh–weeds.” I however think, “photo ops!” :) I told Tommy the other day that we couldn’t cut the grass until I was able to get out and take some pictures. I think that he thinks he’s married …
Yippee! A Finalist!
One of my photos was selected as a finalist for Day 3 in Pioneer Woman’s Macro Photography contest.Pioneer Woman – Day 3 Macro Contest I had entered several shots and this was not my favorite, but I’m thrilled! I didn’t know it until Amanda called me and asked, “Have you looked at the internet today?” …
