Hooray for May!
I can’t believe that (1) it’s May already and that (2) that means it’s also now less than two weeks until my birthday!! Eek! I’ll be a whopping 37 come May 16th. 😉 Meanwhile, today is the so-called, “Star Wars Day” (May the 4th be with you!) and Love and I spent the afternoon out […]
Sunset
Took this from Pier 60 at Clearwater Beach Sunday, February 2, 2014.
King of the Jungle
Today was an unseasonably beautiful day with temps in the mid-70’s. (It’s normally well into the mid-80’s by now with feels-like temps into the 90’s.) And, having worked my butt off getting 8 orders made on Sunday, packed and shipped today (hopefully) in time for Mother’s Day, I rewarded myself with an afternoon romp around […]
Boston Bruins at Tampa Bay Lightning
Love’s birthday was Monday, February 18th. (And yes, this year it WAS on President’s Day!) His favorite NHL team is the Boston Bruins. They were coming here to Tampa only once this season and that game was Thursday, February 21st. So I got him tickets to the game as his birthday present. Here’s a few […]
Kitties!
Because the internet is powered by cats. And because my girls make awesome photography subjects. Click either image for larger. – Both were taken with my Canon “Nifty Fifty” (50mm f/1.8) lens. I find it takes awesome cat photos with very crisp detail. I’m sure Canon didn’t develop the lens specifically in mind for cat […]
Nifty Fifty
Canon has a 50mm f/1.8 lens that’s known as the “Nifty Fifty” because it’s a great little lens for cheap. It’s like $110 right now on amazon for example. With savvy shopping, you can often even find it for less. The lens is known for being tack sharp and great for portraits and other detail […]
Festival of the Masters
Saturday we went out to Downtown Disney for the 37th Annual Festival of the Masters art show. It’s a great free show they do for one weekend in November each year. Last year we didn’t make it after breaking down on the side of I-4 but no such problem this year. Here’s a few random […]
Pollination
Caught this really huge bee happily drinking from a yellow flower this afternoon at the park. The bee was very intent on it’s meal and didn’t mind me pointing my camera at it at all! 😉
Sunken Gardens Part Three
Continuing Monday’s pics and Tuesday’s pics, here are some more of the historical botanical gardens, Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg, Florida. These were taken on Sunday, October 21st. Whew! Ok, I think that’s enough for now. Hope you enjoyed a look at the beautiful flowers, scenery and gardens of Sunken Gardens!
Sunken Gardens Part 2
So, continuing yesterday’s pics, here are some more of the historical botanical gardens, Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg, Florida. These were taken on Sunday, October 21st. Look for part three tomorrow! (I’m pre-scheduling them all so they’ll all post on time for sure!)
Sunken Gardens
It was a beautiful weekend weather-wise here in the Tampa Bay Area with very low humidity and cool breezes. It was lovely. I wanted to enjoy a little of it, so Sunday we went to Sunken Gardens. I had gotten a super cheap Groupon way back in May with the plans to use it when […]
