Saturday Self-Challenge: Anything Glass in B&W
I am still learning how to use my new camera (I have a feeling I'll be learning for a long time!), and wanted to try B&W in camera instead of using an editor. After some time spent learning how to use the feature, I managed to get a somewhat decent image.
Happy Easter and have a great week ahead!

Saturday Self-Challenge: Fragile
Glass is fragile even though hard. Sea shells are fragile like glass. These shells were collected locally at the beaches of Melbourne, Florida.
Have a great weekend, everyone!

A new plant I brought home the other day. I love how the flowers open up in the day and close at night.

Saturday Self-Challenge: Covid-19
One of the hallmarks of the Covid-19 pandemic are masks. Never before has a populace been so universally impacted by a disease. These are the masks I wear when out and about. My favorite is the one shown on top.

Saturday Self-Challenge: Thrown or Falling
This was quite a challenge; I finally opted to use running water from the tap to capture water drips. I used my flash to capture them more clearly. Not exactly the most clever image, but satisfactory for the challenge (plus I was happy with the results of the flash).
Have a wonderful week ahead, everyone!

Macro Mondays: Bicycles
My cruising bicycle made by Cadillac. I don't know if these are still produced, but it does ride like a Cadillac...and yes, it is pink! An alternate shot is in the note.
Have a great week ahead, everyone!

Saturday Self-Challenge: A Bottle from Above
I have always loved colored glass and the way light shines through it, creating the most interesting shadows. Another shot from a different angle is in the note.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
Thank you so much for your comments and likes, so very appreciated!

A photo taken in my garden this past summer. Thankfully I uploaded a number of photos before ipernity's upload feature went down, so I have new images to share over the coming days/weeks.
Happy Weekend, Everyone!

It has been a long time since I saw a Monarch butterfly in my garden; this one decided to pose for me!
Have a great weekend everyone!
"Air" Plants

Macro Mondays: Houseplants
Tillandsia, of the Bromeliaceae family, are better known as Air Plants. They get their nickname from the fact that they do not require soil in order to thrive, only the air and a spritz of water once or twice a week.
Have a great week, everyone!
