Taken back in early March when we still got an occasional freeze, and things kept having to restart their spring growth. I thought that was over, but they're forecasting a light freeze again for this morning...(=P Of course, it will be in the mid-70's by this afternoon...

One of the new houses in its original form and style, located directly on the Motława River. The façade features bay windows that cast long shadows.

Not sure what type of tree this was (perhaps a sycamore), but it had lost nearly all of its bark.

sometimes this is the attitude needed to survive around here...

Digging through the archives...from last year. A few years ago, the auto-focus on my 100mm macro lens crapped out, and I've really missed using that lens more often. Very hard to catch critters with manual focus!

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!

About as close as I could get to our blooming Allium... :)

I immediately regretted leaving my pencil lying around when I stepped away. I am still impressed by how good a memory plants have for remembering poems learned years ago.

"The hyacinths laugh and chat amongst themselves, and wink at the stars; the roses whisper sweet nothings in each other's ears."

Heinrich Heine.

When I open up my catalog in the morning to pick something to post, it opens where I was at last time. In this case, that's 2014, and I can't help but to look around a bit. This morning, this is what caught my eye...

Death seems to be approaching for this old tree, alone in a field. I wonder what all it has endured during it's struggle for life, and whether it's glad or sad that it is finally coming to an end...

On that happy note, have a good Monday, all... :)

I was about to mow the yard, so I grabbed a shot of this toadstool before I chopped it up...:)

Spring, that is. I don't know what kind of tree this was, as I saw it on a walk through some woods.

I'm glad to see some bees on my clover patch this year. The last couple of years, there hasn't been as many as usual.

The great thing about Banana Spiders is that they like to stay in the same spot. As long as they aren't disturbed, you can go back for weeks and find the same spider, although much bigger, every time.

Höckerschwan .....

Still sorting through some of last year's shots that I want to save.

Predawn long exposure of one of my favorite conservation areas. In infrared, of course... :) It was actually quite dark at the time.
