Alone solid
standing strong through life's storms
like so many others

Haiku 204 Turn and Jump


Turn and jump
repeat
difficult to focus.

I don't know much about spiders but this definitely had to be a jumping spider! I'm afraid of spiders unless there's a camera lens between me and the spider. But I'll admit I was a bit afraid that it would jump on me!

Haiku 203 Weed! Must Destroy


Weed! Must destroy...
or perhaps sit and marvel
delicate beauty

Today was the type of day I imagined before retiring. A school day and I spent the entire day potting plants and working in the garden and ended the day with a group bike ride. Ah... this is the life. :)

Haiku 202 Glimpse of History


Glimpse of history...
what filled these shelves 
before the pigeon waste?

Today my husband and I had the privilege of going into an old building that is being renovated by a local company. We wandered around the parts not renovated yet taking photos. It was a fun experience.

Haiku 201 Serenity For Me


Serenity for me
macro lens plus nature
for pure enjoyment

I've gotten way behind in the assignments for Dogwood Photo Challenge. 
This is what I think I'm going to submit for the Serenity challenge next week. I won't include the haiku. Nature is often my own yard, loving the macro lens makes that easy. Don't you wish there was a scratch and sniff option for this one?

Tonight I used the Photoshop App to do the text. Not thrilled with the result.

Haiku 197 Wet Clothes Dirty Hands


Wet clothes, dirty hands
having fun-catch and release
not a device in sight.

(No device? Now that's a story!)

Haiku 194 Spring Favorite


Spring favorite
until the next favorite 
blooms soon.

Haiku 193 Family Love



Family love-
kids with four paws
own a piece of our heart-forever.


Haiku 192 Last Photo School


Last photo shoot
end of life is closing in
fuck cancer

This sweet pup was diagnosed with cancer about the same time my son was last year. Unfortunately, Ella did not respond to chemo as well as my son did. Ella has the best mom and she will be deeply missed by her and rest of the family. 

We love you Ella.

Haiku 190 First Reds and Yellows


Reds and yellows first
then frilly pink and whites 
then poof-gone in the rain.

Haiku 189 Welcome Back


Welcome back
new leaves, green grass and nesting birds.
Where's the warmth hiding?
