It was a pretty day today, but you could tell we were going to get some kind of weather with the thunderheads built up over the mountains - and we just had a big thunderstorm with a little bit of hail.
Forsythia are one of my favorite springtime flowers. These were captured at my sister's home back in 2011, when she still lived in northern Wisconsin.
After our two beautiful days to herald the arrival of Spring, today is back to Winter - cold and at the moment it is pouring. This is a full frame photo and was taken with my 75-300 mm lens and all three Kenko extension tubes. These African daisies are in a neighbour's garden and mine have never curled like these. I may have to ask for a cutting lol.

The grass in the park was sparkling in the sun due to the early morning mist. A couple of old leaves break up all the green with its bright colours.
... in Springtime. Lots of lovely blossom.
I took the photo with my Fujifilm camera with the kit lens, and did very little editing of my RAW image in Capture One Fujifilm Express (which is free to use). I set my camera to take JPG images at the same time, so I can delete unsuitable images straightaway on my PC, before loading the RAW ones in C1. The RAW ones are huge - about 55MB each!
I've still got my Canon 5D Mk2 with several lenses which took beautiful photos also. However, I spent much more time perfecting them in Lightroom (adjusting colour, etc.), so I save a lot of time using Fujifilm plus C1. I'm thinking about getting a Fringer adapter for the X-T3 to use my Canon lenses on it.

With all this cold weather I have still not been able to venture out with the camera, here is one from the springtime with the Buttercups in all their glory at Hatfield Forest.
the spring is here. "my" tree that I shot 2 years ago, uploaded in this site, is still there. Strong, alone and beautiful. Is the life stronger in Nature than in Human?

Volunteers at Descanso Gardens in La Cañada Flintridge, California annually plant around 30,000 tulip bulbs in January, along with hollyhocks and daffodils. This photo was taken two months later in March.
It's been awhile since I've posted any photos here. There's probably...around 4 years' worth of travels that I've yet to sort out photo-wise. The fact that most people (myself included) have no incentive to travel these days has triggered me to finally sit down and revisit these photos.
This photo was from the last time I visited Japan in Springtime - hard to imagine that it was a year and a half ago. We got there at the very tail end of the sakura blossom period, when everything is being replaced by a sea of green. For everyone who wants to get some respite from the crazy tourist hubbub of Kyoto, I would really suggest heading to Eikando Zenriji.
