96: Pastels

The assignment at Picture Spring today was to take a picture of some pastels.  I love hanging my clothes out because they smell so fresh when I take them in.

95: Moose

On the way to my mother-in-law's house, we saw this big girl looking back at us.  She was standing about 400 feet from the house.  Yikes!

94: Weed

For Picture Spring we had to place our camera on the ground and snap away.  I didn't have much luck; this was the best of the bunch.  I didn't know there was a weed growing in the grass but I'm glad I found it.

93: Crocus

The warm temperatures made the crocuses pop out.  It's so nice to see color!

92: Feather

Today's assignment at Picture Spring is to take 30 steps in any direction and take a picture of what we see.  I went outside and 30 steps took me to the edge of the driveway.  I snapped a bare tree, a weedy garden, the dead lawn.  Then looked straight down and saw this feather just lying there like a gift.

91: Good Morning, Breakfast

For the second day of Picture Spring, our prompt was to photograph something about our morning ritual.  This is my breakfast: 1 slice of homemade whole wheat toast with turkey breast, a glass of water, and a banana.  
I know this looks similar to a picture I posted last week of the daffodils but it's where I was sitting this morning when I read the new prompt for today.

90: Baby Leaves

I started an online photography workshop today called Picture Spring.  Our first prompt was to take a picture of something that symbolizes new beginnings to us.  I went for a walk through the Smith Hydro Park not expecting to see any green shoots but was surpised to see these poking out like flames.
