be vewwy qwiet…

when the monstrosity next door went up two years ago, i thought the construction had driven out the bunnies.

today’s snowfall suggests i was wrong. yay wabbits!

monumental fiddling

photos from the dawn monument stroll. fake polaroid dry transfer technique on scanned paper bag. mixed results. ww2 monument is my least-disliked one.

fall colors

and textures, and states of decay.
oh, and snuffy.

columbine: a strange and alien flower

the appendix thing laid me out for about a week, and that plus the recent rains means i missed most of the crazy azalea action this spring (for photos, anyway). but i’ve got years’ worth of azalea photos, so it isn’t such a big deal.

last spring, i scattered a wildflower mixture that was mostly columbine, with some viola and hollyhock mixed in. none of it did much last year. this year, we have a mini-field of columbine surrounding a newly-acquired fig tree (thanks, mom!). it wasn’t until recently that i realized exactly how odd columbine flowers are.

(i’m not crazy about wordpress’ native gallery maker – many of my photos don’t center on the center of the image – but for the moment highslide doesn’t play nice with the current wp build. and so i suffer. and my meager readership suffers.)

and a few of those other flowers

photohunt: purple

sticking to the flowers in the yard. tulips are up, some more than others (and some done blooming entirely). the darker azaleas are blooming, and the paler ones are about to pop. there’s woodland poppy everywhere. and the bleeding hearts are positively dripping.

next week’s topic is “protect(ion)”. how can i not put up photos of condoms? (although i doubt i’d be able to come up with anything nearly as good as the photos in hugh rigby’s hardwear: the art of prevention. not that giving you a link does any good – apparently none of the online sellers have a screen shot of the cover.)

fred, and some frozen dogwood buds

from the last storm, which was also the first snow of the winter. it became more ice than snow, as winter storms around here are wont to. the ice globes can’t be good for the tree buds, but they are pretty.

the tennis ball gets it in the end
