This particular park offers a beautiful flower garden to stroll through and is a place that I always enjoy visiting. HSS!

Thank you for your visits and comments, they're so appreciated. Have a great day and new week ahead!

An old-fashioned flower, bleeding hearts are blooming all over the place these days. For a bit of fun and because it's Sliders Sunday, I couldn't help but lightly edit the scene with an abstract filter and saturate the colour in Topaz Studio 2. Happy Sliders Sunday! HSS!

Thank you for your visits and comments, they're very much appreciated. Have a great day and upcoming week!

With inflation sending food prices soaring - this male spruce hen is wondering if he will end up on someone's dining table. And yes - he does taste like "chicken".

These little weigela blooms found themselves in Topaz Studio 2 where I processed them with an impressionism filter, Renoir to be exact. Happy Sliders Sunday! HSS!

Thank you for your views and comments, always appreciated! Have a great day!

I took a quick bite into one of my favorite candies, and it cracked, and then split in half perfectly! Looking down at it, I was reminded of a flower. Taking the image into Topaz - I did a couple of tweaks and decided it might be appropriate for a "Sliders Sunday" post.

Also posted for Macro Mondays theme - "Open".

HSS! and HMM!

It's snowing and blowing right now, so a time when I like to remember warmer days. This image was taken at a local park that I frequent. Most of the time I am creeping around under the bridge in my quest to find frogs and insects, but this time the huge crabapple tree took the show. HSS!

I slightly saturated the colour and added an effect in Topaz Studio 2.

Thanks for stopping by and for leaving me a comment! Have a great day!

I took this picture of leaves with the one on top covered in dew drops because it caught my eye. Later on I decided to separate the leaf from the rest of the pile by creating my own water reflections using 3 layers of motion shots of autumn color leaves at various densities.

The key is missing but are you sure it should be opened?

Il manque la clef, mais êtes-vous vraiment sûr qu'il faille ouvrir ?

This large bloom was one of the last to bloom last year. For Sliders Sunday, I decided to take it to Topaz Studio 2 where I added an impressionism filter. HSS!

Thank you for your views and comments, always appreciated! Have a wonderful day!

I wanted to make the most out of this rare daytime sighting of a black-crowned night heron... a combination of 3 images.

I have captured this cabin from just about every angle, and in every season - but I have never posted one of it in autumn. Now that I have - it is unlikely that I will ever post another.

Hey, if you need a blast of warmth, these golden coneflowers ought to do the trick! HSS!
