Tulip Poplar Flower

I was blessed with a rare find, a fallen Tulip Poplar flower. Normally I find petals not the whole flower, and since I’m not tree climbing straight up 75′ or more I was pleased with this delicate find.

Broken = Beginnings

The broken bird egg shell on my front porch told the story. My expecting moments no longer had to wait. The young robins were arriving, each struggling to make their appearance. Three were out before I caught on, but I was able to chronicle their beginnings with welcome breaks from my Memorial Day weekend gardening. Another new life is welcomed.

A Spring Welcome

The Spring welcome to Stan Hywett Hall, Akron Ohio.

Spring Rains – Pop Go the Mushrooms!

I walked out the door to capture some low light photos from the flower garden. This mini forest of cap mushrooms greeted me at the front step. There is more beauty in the garden than just the flowers.

I’m not sure if these are technically macro shots, but I’m excited to see what I could do with my kit lens. Each shot represents an experiment. Photos are as is off the camera. You’re feed back will be instructive and helpful.

Thanks for taking a look!

Ancient Spring

Spring Tulips Against Stan Hywett Hall

Looking at the back terrace of Stan Hywett Hall, Tudor mansion , Akron Ohio. Capturing the essence of eternal spring against the backdrop of aged elegance.  And if it was not for the flower pots I’d have almost perfect symmetry

Enveloped – by curious little hands

Boys and Toads

When our three and a half year old neighbor boy proudly showed to me the  toad enveloped in his little hands, I new I had my subject for the Weekly Photo Challenge.
