Taken today....

I was trying to capture the beauty of the clouds this afternoon.  I adjusted the highlights just a little in this picture in order to make it more like what I saw.

These dudes are my best buds!

Another view of my garden.  This one highlights the purple heart that's in bloom, and the black eyed susans in the back ground.  I like the contrast of the colors.

I've been trying to take more photos and be a bit more active in Flickr and this blog.  In 3 weeks I am gone again - south this time, and for 4 months.  I will be back by Christmas, but I have no idea how frequently I will be able to post.  But I will continue to take pictures and will catch up on the posting when I get home.
