I was walking through the yard the other day and noticed that the cherry tree has blossomed. If I had planned it out I might have used a diffuser and/or a reflector, but for a drive-by shooting this came out quite nice.

When we moved into our house there was a box of wedding stuff in the attic from a previous owner. I pulled those items out for a recent yard sale. When they didn’t sell I thought that if I couldn’t make a dime with them at least I could make a photo. Here are the [...]
We recently went on a tour at Gibbett Hill Farm in Groton. Our local farm owns some cattle there, and they hosted a tour to let the customers see the cows and how they are raised. (To “meet the meat”, if you will.) It was great to see that all the cows are completely free [...]
I spotted these little gems at a local community airport in Stow Massachusetts. I really liked how the one flower stood out from the rest but yet shared many of the same colors as the smaller ones.

I noticed today that the bleeding heart plant we put in has flowered. The geese and goslings were in the yard this morning so I stepped out to try and get a few good shots before the parents scooted the little fuzballs away. Coming back to the house I saw these flowers in the flower [...]

I stopped in a local cemetery the other day while I was out in the car with a couple of the kids. The kids had fun running around while I hunted down a few good photos. Of the ones that I took I liked this composition the best. I would have liked to have a [...]
Lots of flowers spring up around my yard. Caught these growing out by the front porch. My daughter called them blueberries but I’m not sure I want to back her up on that one.
Got some nice photos of these blossoms while the kids were in swim class over the weekend. Love the contrast between the white petals and the blue sky. I was a little ticked that the batteries in my strobe were dead and had to deal with the on-camera flash shadows. Also might have considered moving [...]
