Honeysuckle


My honeysuckle almost died this year, but I take a picture of it every year and this year the flowers were just as nice, even with only half of the plant.

Tree Rat


There is nothing I dislike more than photos of brown animals and my least favorite are squirrels. I don't dislike squirrels exactly, just wasting photos of them and finding them proudly displayed on friends websites! So, I happened upon this mangy thing in my backyard and thought of my friend Mario in Montreal who is the biggest offender of this. His squirrel photos are WAY better(supposing there's a rating system for crappy squirrel photos)... he cares more about getting them just right and capturing the essence of squirrel life.

Me? After I quickly snapped this picture and posted it here, I deleted all traces of the rat-like animal from my computer. This guy was far above me and I shot it at 450mm to keep my distance. Although I always secretly wish one will jump at Mario so he'll stop taking pictures of them, I didn't want it to happen to me. Just thinking about it made me scream like a girl and run into the house.

So, to my friend Mario... I was thinking about you buddy and this one's for you!

La Bella Luna

The moon looked kind of cool against the sky last night, so I took a few shots.

My main site is 'under repair'. Looking forward to having it back in a week or two.



This year, I noticed that just about everyone did a dandelion shot. I thought I'd do one and try not to do one with that single seed floating away.
