I guess until school gets done, I will only have Sunday to work on my fun stuff - like Photographica. I miss you guys and look forward to chatting with some of you this summer during down time.

Here is one for the challenge:Blue Sky Reflected

These are bonus shots one taken at Sunday Brunch and the other in the courtyard at school.

I've been working way too many hours lately and have had almost no time to get with my gear. So in desperation, I grabbed a few shots in the backyard and played around with them a bit on Photoshop.

We visited our nation's capital last weekend, during the peak weekend for viewing (and photographing) the cherry blossoms.  I took 150 photos - these were some of the best.

Today I spent the day cleaning up my garden and pulling Weeds.One of my Cats was Helping Me. My Tulips are starting to grow.

Here are a few shots I took of my tulips...In the Pink and Colors.

This is my first real post.  A couple of previus attempts didn't go so well (guess I should have paid attention to the directions - thanks to codepoit for helping me out).  This first shot is Art's Deli in Studio City.  The next is a shot of the temple at the Aladdin in Las Vegas (this image was enhanced a little with photoshop in order to make the moon stand out).  I took a picture of these tulips at Disneyland a couple of weekends ago.  I really like the way it came out.  And last, but not least, the lake at Harveston in Temecula.  Enjoy!

With my new Nikon D50!!!  My husband surprised me with it on Saturday!  I have SO much to learn.  But I can't wait!
