Colors of Summer

I usually photograph scenes of nature and nautical images, however, I wanted to do something different, which can be seen in this photo.

Have a happy summer and be safe!

A Springtime Stroll.....

While enjoying the warm Michigan weather we've had lately, I decided to take a drive to the local greenhouse. The owners of Bogie Lake Greenhouse, Mark and Patty, are super people, as well as thier wonderful staff. Having an open inviation to come and visit and photograph in any of thier greenhouses, I took the opportunity. On a recent warm and sunny morning, I took a leisurely stroll through the greenhouses, taking a few photographs (including this gorgeous flower above), and appreciating the TLC put into every single flower, herb, plant....every single piece of greenery there. They should be very proud of thier accomplishments!

Welcome to my blog. This is my first post, as this is all new to me. Photography has been a passion of mine for many years and I'm ready to share my experience and my work with others.

Summer was wonderful, a cooler one, but I didn't mind one bit. Went to a few art shows and spoke with fellow photographers. They are all so talented with thier own style. Some were art show veterans and for some, this was thier first year and I must add, they were doing very well!

Autumn is my favorite season, so I will be in my glory soon! Well, as long as we have the fall colors, not too sure about that with the cooler summer we've had in Michigan. I love everything about Autumn, the cool crisp air, you can actually smell a difference in the air! I love apple picking and the pumpkin patches! My goal this fall is to tour lighthouses with the fall colors complimenting them. Hopefully we have some great weather. Regardless, I will have a great Autumn season and I hope everyone reading this does too!
