This little daisy was growing wild in our grass and just before Bill mowed the lawn, I took some shots of the innocent flower. I darkened the background so the petals are the only thing that stands out. Doesn't it just make you want to pull the petals off one by one...he loves me...he loves me not...he loves me...he loves me not...HE LOVES ME!

3 May 2009 Photo: Nights In White Lilacs

I decided it was time for a night photograph. When I walked outside to see what was to be seen through the camera lens, I got a slight wift of the lilacs. Taken with a flash, I captured the brightness of the little white flowers against the darkness of the night.

Happy 2009! Here is the first photo of my photo a day blog taken on New Year's Day of my sweet Mona. There is over 9 inches of snow from the day before but today was a bright sunny day and VERY cold. Mona braved it to be my subject for my first photo! She loves the snow, although she does come in a bit quicker these days as she is getting older and doesn't like the cold quite as much. She will be 9 (or 63 in dogs years) in February. I still remember the day I picked her up from the Farmers Market in Ithaca. Went down to get some produce and found this tiny 2 month old pup in the back of a pickup truck looking for a new home. She has been a faithful companion ever since.
