Waterdrop addiction

So I'm like, addicted to waterdrops lately : )

The top photo is a Hosta leaf after I watered the garden, I thought the reflections in the drop were pretty neat! The middle photo is a Ladys Mantel leaf after a rain in Dawns garden, the leaves are all hairy & holds on to the drops real nice! And the bottom photo is a drop of rain on Bleeding Heart leafs, I really like how the drop just hovers over the empty space between the leafs : )

Spring sunshine warms the heart : )

My sister gave me a twig of her Bleeding Heart plant last year, I can't believe how big it grew this spring! I just love this plant, the bold colors & shapes are truely a gorgeous addition to my tiny gardens.

Happy Spring everyone!!

Wish I could share the sounds that were all around me as I took this shot. The wonderful music of the wetlands as the day fades to night...yes peaceful, serene and a tad bit eerie...all so very good for the soul : )

DOF

I tell ya, I really, really love my 50mm lens : )

My new windchime was perfect for practicing my angle shooting, cause most of the time my photos just look crooked, blah! lol : )
I also like messing around with dof, selecting what I want to be in focus & what I want blurred, I find that to be a whole lotta fun!

Birthday Girl

Caroline, Dawns grandaughter, celebrated her first birthday last week, yup, a year old already! She is a very photogenic little gal & I had a lot of fun trying to capture all the fun she had had on her special day! : )
