There is a flower, a little flower
With silver crest and golden eye,
That welcomes every changing hour,
And weathers every sky.

Daisies have always been one of my favorite flowers.    I had to stop at church this morning to drop something off and these daisies were in one of the flowerbeds in front of the church  Of course, I had to go back to the car and get my camera and take a few shots. Love how I managed to capture the raindrops.  We have had rain on and off for several days now and more rain is in the forecast for the next few days.

Quiet Oasis.  We spent a great afternoon with friends.  They had a BBQ to show off their new home and to meet their little boy Oliver.  He is a 9 months old now and is just a joy    On the way home, I asked my husband to stop at the pond that I tried to get some photos of last night.  It was a little later than last night so the lighting was better.  Michael took this shot – love the reflections.  Hard to believe this little park is in the middle of several busy roads

How can this be the end of May.  Where has the time gone.  I did not intend to post another flower picture today.  Traffic was a mess coming home tonight so decided to go the back way.  I had to stop for a red light and noticed a lot of unique things in front of an antique store.   I made a quick left hand turn and ended up parking by the small park in town.  When I got out of the car some flowers caught my eye and I walked inside the gardens.  Did not realize that there was a small pond and a little waterfall.  Took a bunch of shots but was not happy with them.  Lighting was not right – will have to stop by another day at a different time of day.  Then I noticed this tree and since I am trying to use the camera in manual mode and working on depth of field I took a bunch of pictures.  Could not decide which one of these two I liked the best.  Your thoughts.

Another busy day.  I took a couple of pictures this morning before work but they didn’t turn out that great – guess it was because I did not have any chai.  Worked thru lunch and then had a company event after work so have to post a picture from yesterday.  Who knew there were that many different kinds of apples.  I bought some honey crisp – several people at cooking class were telling me how great they are.

Stopped at the local farm store to pick up some apples and apple cider – want to try the recipes from cooking class last night for the caramel apple tart and the apple cider salad dressing.  I was walking around the farm stand taking all kinds of photos – lots of good photo ops.  People probably wondered what I could possibly be taking photos of.  I’m just an obsessed photographer looking for my photo of the day.
