Through my lens... 5/16/16 - 5/22/16

Early Lilac's 

This week has had its ups and down, weather wise. I can feel spring coming, or do I feel summer coming this weekend? I can't tell anymore... 

Anyway I couldn't wait for my Lilacs to bloom so I picked off this small amount and brought it inside during the rain. I am quite pleased with how it turned out. With little practice I might consider more indoor shoots this coming winter...

Cherry Blossom

I captured this shot at Downs Family Park in Southampton, waiting for my sons baseball game to start. They have many Cherry Trees there. The park looks so pretty this time of year!

Peach Tree

This image of a peach tree branch was taken on my windowsill in my kitchen. This is one of my favorite spots to take still life photos inside.

Dandelion

I have never taken a dandelion photo before and I have never tried to make a background black before either. For some reason, I finally just did it. Another step in the right direction for my indoor winter photography projects.

Old Cat

What Caterpillar this was, I don't recall. But it was beautifully rusted! I just love the gold and orange color combination.

Decaying Beauty

I believe this is an old irrigation system, but I will have to look into that more. It just looked so pretty in the field with all the flowers growing around it. The patina on this was also amazing!

Ford 

I wish I could remember what this was exactly. I think it was from a tractor, but I'm  not sure at all. I just love the look of the old rust. I was very distracted, too many rusty machines to look at.
