Hmm...Needs More Sugar

We've had an especially large number of butterflies around our house this year and I was able to snap this photo one day while on my way to the pool. Getting shots like this without a DSLR (and thus without manual focus) is pretty special.

Let Me Brighten Your Day...

After having experienced almost 24 hours worth of rain, I think this photo perfectly captures the feeling in the air during those first few moments after the sun finally popped out.

A Gift for Mother’s Day

With Mother’s Day less than a month and a half away, I wanted to provide my followers with a wonderful gift idea for this special day. You can download the above photo in full resolution without any watermarks for only $0.99, and make both a beautiful and heartwarming gift for your mother by printing/framing it however you’d like. I designed it last year for my own mother as a Christmas gift, and wanted to make it available to you.

The First Flowers of Spring

No, this photo didn't come from my archives. I was looking for something worth taking a picture of this afternoon when I spotted these flowers starting to bloom and, at a distance, thought it must have been some kind of yellow yard ornament. But upon closer inspection, I realized that my Grandma's crocuses are indeed blooming. Goodbye winter!
