I’m getting a lot of mileage out of the crocuses in our backyard. Something new on Monday, though!

By the way, I finally blogged again on my regular blog. I’d love to have you stop by and read/comment! It’s a humorous list of things the movies taught me about various careers.

Piled Leaves

Frost edges a pile of winter-brown leaves.

I have a little trouble finding inspiration when it is this cold out, hence a few pictures from my archives. However, the other morning as I walked past my bedroom window on some errand or another, I noticed the perfect slant of light just hitting the frost-touched leaves in our backyard. The urgency of my busy-ness forgotten, I pulled on my shoes and hat, grabbed my camera + macro lens, and spent the next half hour lying in the cold, damp grass, taking pictures. The above photo, as well as the one I’ll post on Thursday, is one of the results. I’m still playing around with a few others, and will eventually post more. In the meantime, I have a few hikes to conduct in the search for both inspiration and photos. I can’t wait!
