Something I’ve been wanting to experiment with for a little bit, but didn’t have a good subject in mind. It rained pretty heavily this morning and when I stepped out for the mail, I noticed that not only were the daffodils up, and spring-shower-fresh, but also that they would probably make a good test subject. The style needs some work, but it gives me a few ideas of what kind of results I can get out of it.
Taken at a nearby zoo, PP converted to Black & White. I have tried (unsuccessfully) to photograph this eagle in the past, this weekend it was just the right time of day for lighting and she was out enjoying the nice weather, so I finally got in a decent photo.
Also submitted to the “Wildlife Forever” calendar project over on Pixish.
The Easter Lily from the previous post, all grown up.
One of three giant blooms that have finally opened up on our Easter Lily. I may spend a bit more time photographing it with some better lighting later, though I really doubt I can improve much upon what nature has already created.
After one of the mildest winters I have ever witnessed, spring is on it’s way.

And woke up in the rain
And everyone turned over
Troubled in their dreams again”
