Funky Fuzzy Unfurling Fern : )

I just love how ferns unfurl, each one seems to have a personality all their own. : )

Pear Tree Blossom

As soon as the Magnolia tree blossoms have all fallen, the pear tree in my side yard is in full bloom!

Petals of Pink

******************************

Ok I showed you the Magnolia tree in full bloom, a close-up of the magical inside so now time for a show of petals : )
Placing the blooms on a mirror and once again using a work lamp I was able to double the beauty. I just love the gentle curves of the petals with their soft pink tones, almost seems to me like someone used watercolors to paint each and every one : )

A Look Within

The first photo I ever posted on my blog, was a shot similar to this one! The inside of a Magnolia flower.
May celebrates my one year of Photoblogging, and your all invited to....yes, another raking party!! The Magnolia blossoms are dropping from the tree like crazy, and boy, do they make a mess : ) It's a BYOR (bring you own rake) party. The date of the party is still up in the air right now, (literally) but I'll be sure to fill you all in on the time and date!! LOL : )

Things are Looking up

I love wandering under the Magnolia tree out in my front yard, the scent has such a wonderfully soft sweet smell, Oh and the beautiful touch of pink against the blue skies of spring...it don't get any better than this! : )

Macro Magnolia Bud

Once again playing with lighting, kind of a moody shot of a Magnolia bud : )

Sweet Scent of Spring

Spring is just bursting here in New England! I love white flowers, so I picked up this Hyacinth a few days ago for next years garden. Had a bit of fun working with lighting :) & was very happy with the results...and the fragrance...WOW! it's totally incredibly awesome!

April Showers...

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

Did a photoshoot with my niece a few weeks back. Boy, did I learn a lot about lighting, pretty much that I suck at setting it up! : ) so most of the shots came out with lots and lots of shadows, but thanks to PS I'm able to sorta get rid of most of the shadows...So after a few outfit changes & a smile that was getting sore, we kind of got a bit silly : ) I also had a bit of fun in PS with her favorite color, yup you guessed it...PINK! And also she'll be turning "Sweet 16" this month! So this is for you, Lolo :) Luvs Ya!!
