Personal Photo Project of the Week #132 Alpha
The Girl in the Blue Skirt Beta – 2012 Even though my lily patch didn’t take off quite like I had hoped this year (due to neglect and heat), all of these lily pictures are either my lilies or my Mom’s lilies.

Happy Things – 2012 This week’s project was to photograph coneflowers. Coneflowers are probably a top 5 flower for me.

The rest of the Happy Things – 2012… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #128
