The Pink Ladies

Sensual. Startling. Vivid. Dazzling. Radiant. Beautiful. I recently found this image among my collection of orchid pictures from February's local orchid show. I find orchids very beautiful and very interesting to photograph. I am not an expert or an avid collector of orchids but I do have a few around my house and workplace which I enjoy viewing whenever they are in bloom. Taking many varieties of photographs, I do enjoy capturing flowers in bloom as well. Next on my list? An antique treasure of awesomeness. Tomorrow I am diving into the world of antiques while searching for that perfect model of timeless beauty...or perhaps better yet mysterious"ness". I wonder what I might find, I really have never "antiqued" before...should be interesting.

Three Stages Of Life

I have decided to show this image (captured in Germany) because for me it represents three stages of life and the four seasons. As Spring begins, the seeds are placed into the ground ready to awaken from their dormant slumber, for then the process of life is activated. A few weeks later the sprouts, the little inkling of green peeks through and continues to grow and grow. As time goes by, the little green buds become young plants. They are ready to show off all that they have. Before you know it, the large, beautiful plant is blooming and serving its purpose. It is living its life to the fullest and giving it all that it has. I love Spring, it's almost here...I was impatient and started my plants early this season. I am proud to have the ability to help the greenery achieve its purpose. I am very excited to move through the seasons while enjoying the warmth of the sun and the green of the plants. This is a deep entry...I feel the need to express how excited I am that Spring is around the corner and that we can soon join the outside world instead of viewing it through a window.
