026 : Plum bloom against blue sky

Yay, some blue sky! Had to get of the plum blooms against it, since there's not telling when we might see it again! Tried to get as close as I could to the blooms... love the little pokers coming out of its center.

025 : Wet daffodil against light

Cold and wet most of today, but managed to get some sunshine on my lunch break. Really liked how the sun reflected of the walkway stone from a few posts ago, so thought I'd try something similar with the sun bouncing off the rock from behind... sure makes for a dynamic backdrop.

024 : Dandelions

Looks like the dandelions are poking up again... fortunately these were in the garden, so Jill won't bother picking them! Still not sure why people hate them so... if they were bigger, I think people would plant them in their gardens, as I think they're a neat looking bloom!

023 : Daffodil bud birdseye

Pretty dim out, but enough light to get this looking-down shot on this daffodil. Loved the green and orange groundcover of the righthand side.

022 : Daffodil bud against reflective stone

This photo turned out pretty well I think... I really thought the backdrop was the interesting part, as it was a wet stepping stone which was reflecting the sun, creating some interesting highlights, coupled with the shadow of another daffodil (top right). I thought it almost looked like a shimmering pool of water.

021 : Raindropped fallen Camellia

Tons of sun today, but also lots of rain (and a little bit of hail!) Found this camellia in the tree, and loved the tiny bit of sun it got. Actually used the flash on this one, and really seemed to bring out the droplets towards the back pretty well. Love the texture of the petals.

020 : Flashed two-toned daffodil

Had to break out the flash for this one... just too dark outside. It was actually pretty nice today, but overcast by the time I got home. Love these two-toned daffodils... can't wait for a few more to pop up.
