Stepping Back

As we await the flowers of spring,I decided to step back into my archives and share some flowers from the past.

These pictures were all taken in the summer of 2005.

I can hardly believe the quality,as I had a small point and shoot Olympus camera at the time.THis was my first camera and the one responsible for getting me hooked on photography.

One of the lilies in our garden back then.

This is a more delicate looking lily. I do like the colour and the curled back petals.

These pictures were taken while I was waiting to become a Grandma,but today my precious Kai would tell you that this is Grandma's favourite colour.

I do like pink,but this blue is amazing as well.These tiny flowers are Forget-me-nots.

One flower does not have much presence,but a cluster of them is outstanding.

I do enjoy clouds and that was the reason for this picture.

I would ask you to take a close look at this shot.Hidden among all those trees is my town of Morden.I think that is pretty amazing. I love all the trees which line our streets.The town used to have several elevators,but now has only this one.You can see in the distance a much larger elevator,this one is about three miles down the road and has replaced the smaller ones.

I found this quote in an A Rocha magazine:

We care only for what we love.
We love only what we know.
We truly know only what we experience.
