Just a Walk in the Park with an old Canon

I love getting rid of ‘stuff,’ perhaps obsessively, so for the past few months, I’ve been on a decluttering mission. Unwanted items are disposed of, saved for garage sale, or taken to the Goodwill. Today, while going through some drawers, I came across my… Continue Reading “Just a Walk in the Park with an old Canon”

Back in the Pink

Last week at this time I was pretty miserable with whatever’s going around (I haven’t been that sick since covid.) But I’m finally back ‘in the pink’ so I’m here with a gallery to celebrate. Sharing with #SundayStills, Pink. That is all. ~ Susanne

Geometric Fields – Daffodils and Tulips

January is a dreary month if you live in the Pacific Northwest, there’s just no way around it. The days are short and gray with lots of rain, it makes me long for spring! Fortunately, it won’t be too much longer till I can… Continue Reading “Geometric Fields – Daffodils and Tulips”

Happy Sunday Flowers – and my Ketchup and Mustard Rose

I recently showed you pictures of a little rosebud that overcame being planted in the wrong place in the spring, then being cut back and transplanted at the wrong time, in the middle of summer. You may remember I was so happy to see… Continue Reading “Happy Sunday Flowers – and my Ketchup and Mustard Rose”

I planted the ketchup and mustard rose earlier this spring but as sometimes happens,… Continue Reading “Raindrops on Roses”

Don’t Worry – Bee Happy!

For this week’s #Sunday Stills color challenge – ORANGE – I looked no further than my own back yard. And I squared all seven pictures for #SevenforSeptember. ~ Susanne

Seven Colors of the Rainbow

Did you know there are seven colors in the rainbow? I guess I did, though I forgot the specifics until I began to look for sevens, for #SevenforSeptember. We don’t get many rainbows here in the Great Northwest though we do get lots of… Continue Reading “Seven Colors of the Rainbow”

Seven Squared Bugs?

What’s that you say? Squared pictures. Seven of them. Bugs. (I use the term loosely. All bugs are insects, not all insects are bugs!) So I can ‘double dip’ into two photo challenges, #Sunday Stills and #SevenforSeptember. I’ll start with an ordinary ‘bug’ resting… Continue Reading “Seven Squared Bugs?”

Clematis – Two Ways

I’ve shared many pictures of Clematis Montana, a faithful, pink, prolific climber, that lights up my garden every year in May. But rising above the fray, here and there, is another clematis with large white blossoms few and far between. It stays put year… Continue Reading “Clematis – Two Ways”

Busy as a Bee in Summer

Six Bees for #SixWordSaturday. ~ Susanne
