Magic Fairy Dust

It's time for some spring magic! May the butterflies sprinkle you with fairy dust! :)

It's Friday!

It's finally spring. It's warm and sunny, and time to think about the weekend! Is it time to present a rose to your special someone and ask if they would like to spend a little time with you? This intriguing close up of a soft pink rose is sure to awaken their romantic side and spark an answer of yes!

Gentle Breeze

This delicate dandelion began losing it's tiny seedlings as the wind gently rocked the bloom while I was setting up this shot. The wispy adventurers were about to set off on their journey but I was blessed to be able to capture them before they were swept away. It can be said that dandelions are a nuisance, but I prefer to think of it as witnessing the life cycle come the full circle.

Pop Fly

I love birds. They fascinate me. (You know, the whole "flying" aspect that represents freedom, the majesty of gliding in the sky...I can watch them forever.) I even have an affinity for the much-abhorred pigeon. I believe all creatures deserve respect and no one is more important than any other. This belief allows me to see beauty where many overlook it. If you've read any of my previous posts, you also know that I am drawn to bright colors and like to celebrate the joyful moments that occur everyday.

Hello

This flower looked like it was smiling at me as I walked by so I had to snap it's photo!

Pop Corn

When is food more than something to eat? When you take the time to do more than look at an object; when you delve deeper and actually study it, the beauty that had been overlooked becomes unmistakable. Suddenly, the playful curves of the husk that had so valiantly protected the corn as it grew twirled in front of me as if they wanted to dance. The kernels cascaded down the cob in complete disarray, not following the straight and narrow at all. It called out to be photographed and to show that even food can have a touch of whimsy. Please enjoy the journey of a humble ear of corn on it's way to becoming "Pop Corn".

Extroverts

I have always been drawn to the sunny side of life. Whether it is the glimmer of a new bud transforming into a perfect bloom, the beauty of a butterfly gliding by as its wings glisten in the light, or going outside to greet the sun itself, I like to surround myself with all things bright and cheery. Color makes me happy. "Happy" is my favorite emotion; it makes me feel empowered and ready to tackle the world. And I believe emotions along with their subsequent reactions are what drive me to capture the even the simple moments. This collection of color represents all that engaging in life.
