A human being is a single being. Unique and unrepeatable. Eileen Caddy Isn’t it strange that I find this halfway bloom beautiful? I have shots of the same Azalea plant with flowers in full bloom and yet this one caught my eye. Have you ever considered yourself peculiar at times? I’d like to use…

Rare Weeds
I don’t know what is it with dandelions, they have a way of getting into me. It’s like each one of them stand out on their own. It is considered a weed, but it commands attention. Maybe, I’m just an easy to please person….I don’t know. How can a tiny stem like that hold such…
Of Rainbows & Storms
As I was finishing up my Tangled Beauty blog post, my daughter called me for what she said another photo opportunity. And it sure was something not to be missed. Who would say no to rainbows? As I ran out to our front porch with my DLSR camera and smartphone in hand, the dark clouds…
Tangled Beauty
How can someone or something that is tangled up…be beautiful? In short, is there such a thing as beautifully confused or beautifully complicated and chaotic?

Life in Black & White
I love writing. I love photography. I have to have both. My photos give life to my writing and vice versa. Without these two, I don’t think I would be who I am. Something would be missing. Not too long ago, someone…a very dear friend, told me to quit listening to music or reading things…
Masked Blooms
This month has been warmer than usual which resulted in unexpected and yet beautiful blooms all around. Pretty unusual this time of year. Could it be a sign of what summer is going to be like? Masked blooms. Too early for spring and pretty dangerous for the winter. It may be too early for the…
Camouflage
We had our first snow last Friday night into Saturday morning. I love snow. It is so pretty to look at. But…if it’s mixed with ice and you get snowed in for days…that’s a different story. Despite the freezing temperature and the lack of a stronger lens, I ventured out and decided to create some…
Backyard Beauty
I don’t know if it’s the fact that we live in a rural area or was it the fact that I am desperate for photos. I don’t know about you, but I find wildflowers and weeds beautiful. I love how they sprout in unlikely places and make their presence known. Just like life, relationships and…
