When my house full of company left I stepped outside to say goodbye and saw this beautiful sky.

Then I turned to go back into the house and heard this noise in the sky and saw this - Geese Flying in a V in a hot sky.

Thought that I would help cool you down with my thumbnail.

Vacation was great!  We had a fantastic time.  I even met Travlin!  What a fun day! (I will post some shots from our day together later)  Here are some quick shots from Mystic Seaport in Mystic CT.

For the light challenge: Sun & Bird FeederAfter  the rain.

Picking a favorite was really difficult, because I have favorites for different reasons, not so much because of good photography, but because of memories etc...so I decided to let my daughter pick for me and she said these three:
#1
#2
 #3

Bonus; yesterday on my birdfeeder I saw an Indigo Bunting.Every picture I got of it was in the shade, I am going to try to catch it in the sun soon, to really show off the color.

Another tornado watch, what's new here in SouthWest Missouri? Just felt like standing on my front porch for a while and look at the sky. Then decided to take a few shots, and this was the result:
Skyline
Skyline too
 Skyline tree
Rooftop
Powerlines

I love taking pictures here in New Mexico.  Here are a few of my recent favorites:

Sunset:  this was taken in northern New Mexico, an hour south of Farmington.

 White Sands:  This has to be one of the most photographed spots in the state.  It is gorgeous, but the glare!  It is tough [at least for me] to get a good picture.  Luckily, I live close enough to go all the time.  My kids love it, although going up isn't as much fun as coming down!

Rio Grande:  Fishing is one of our favorite things to do and we often go camping on the Rio Grande, south of Caballo Lake.  This picture was taken just as the sun was going down.

I hope you enjoyed a little look at the world I live in.

Without Photographica and all you guys, i would not have realized how good this scene could be when i saw it.   an old building really can make a great subject.  hope you like it.

Today I found 3 more spring wildflowers...

Pale Violet
Spring Beauty
Last night as I was working in my garden I looked up and seen This.
