We are badly in need of rain right now, but I have to admit that I’ve really enjoyed the warm, dry Spring we’ve had.
Everything that makes plants flourish and bloom must have happened at just the right times this year, because all the flowers and bushes are beautiful.
Here are some pictures I took out across the lake last month. It always intrigues me when the beauty of the colors is doubled by their reflection in the water.
I love …
Love …
LOVE … Spring!

Can you guess what these people are doing? Why they are lying on the ground?
They are getting the right angle for a photo like this one I used in my post about kites.
For just a second I thought maybe I too should lay down on the ground and take that photo, but then I came to my senses and just asked one of them to take the shot with my camera for me.
Age has its perks.

As we headed home from Tula early in the morning, I tried some shots of the sunrise. As sometimes happens, I didn’t get the pictures I thought I wanted, but I got some different ones that I liked. I liked the way the blurred trees in the foreground suggest brushstrokes.

No, just some color adjustment and cropping of a picture of my eye that was taken when I last got glasses.
By the way, Hubby asked me how in the world I ended up with a copy of the picture the technician took of my eye. My answer — once again, an interesting photo opportunity captured because of having a camera in my purse.

The title of my last post, Sun Up!, reminded me of the following pictures which I had taken during some tumultuous weather several months ago. I was fascinated that the stormy clouds had the appearance of growing up from the ground, or being shadows of the trees in front of them!
The sky is a continuing showcase of nature’s beauty. Fascinating.

Sunrises are like fingerprints — always different.
What a surprise — the sun does come up other places besides from our deck! This was taken on a hot, muggy summer morning in front of our house, looking east down our street, through the neighbor’s tree.
Beautiful colors painted by the hand of God.

What a beautiful view to greet a day that is predicted to be a high of 64 degrees and sunny.
Happy Friday! Wishing you a wonderful weekend.
