This weeks challenge was sepia or black and white. Here are my best shots!
One of my “wild” gardens near the house. That is an old windmill frame in the distance. The cedar fence post is covered in lichens.
Have a good week everyone:)
Here is the “wild” garden in color! :)
The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was Birds and Bees.
I found some bees…
Then one evening after a rain I caught this one with his wings folded over whilst he was sucking the nectar out of a Centaurea montana ‘Blue’ ( A perennial Bachelors Button).
Since we got leaves on the trees the birds in the yard are harder to photograph.
I did manage a photograph of some Canada Geese with their babies. They are such good parents.
Have a good week everyone!
Summer officially starts this next week and the days get shorter. Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads out there! :)
The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was yellow. Now yellow is one of my favorite flower colors. But other than dandelions..and a water lily about to bloom..yellow was scarce this week.
I tried to catch the triple reflection in the watery ripples..this was my best shot.
My Grandson was fishing.
His fishing rod was yellow. I took this photo this afternoon, it was a cool day to be out on the lake:)
Hello everyone! I have really missed the Sunday Stills Challenges. I am going to try harder to make time for them. I am working almost full time, and my “fun” time is limited to late nights and early mornings. Thanks goodness it is seasonal and come October 01 I will be footloose and fancy free again. I accepted a position as Executive Director at a local Historical Museum.
Now on to the potluck challenge!
And now for some real potluck..
Have a great week everyone, I will try to get around and see some of your photos this week! :)
The challenge this week was Wildflowers and Flowers. Fine. Nothing is blooming. We still have snow in the woods. The lakes are frozen. It is freaking cold..The high Saturday was 42 degrees.
I found some pussy willows ( Salix discolor). 
I had better luck at the grocery store.
One look at the pollen and my husband started to sneeze…we worked too many years in the greenhouses. We don’t allow any flowers in the house.
Happy Easter everyone..it is supposed to be 60 degrees above zero for us..we will see..I am not holding my breath:(
The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was to take four photos standing at the same spot, but capturing all the points of the compass.
We are dreary and brown here in Minnesota. But we tried our best..Chance helped!

This is a spot at the bottom of a hill that is about two miles from our house. Have a good week everyone:)
This weeks challenge was something blue..but not sky and no archives. I took all of these photos on Saturday March 26, 2011.
My husband likes blue..so we have lots of blue dishes.
