The rewards of sweat and dirt and mud and persistence in the garden.... Harvest time is approaching!

I have an ever growing passion for bird photography, and I am slowly trying to collect one great photo of every bird species in the world.... I've got about 12 so far. (stop laughing!)

more and more often my favorite photographs are blurry and out of focus...

The gloaming...

The gloaming is the magical time just before darkness, when the last precious bits of light seem to glow off of every flower. This is the Coreopsis in my front garden.

Old Time Religion

Driving through Amish farm country yesterday.... glanced over and saw this. This tent is vivid yellow but I like this black & white version.

Summer Time....

Some recent photos taken by friends .... each of them reminds me of the essence of Summer. I love them all, and even more so as a group.
