Hunting for another photo, I found these perfectly pink peonies, with their soft shadows, languishing in a folder. Here’s to the bliss of summer flowers.

Heart-shaped leaves express how I feel about this season. The light coming through the leaves really makes me happy.

Someone brought these cutie cupcakes to a great party on Saturday. And it looks like someone sampled the pretty red icing, too!

The first evening we got to Seaside, Oregon, the weather was windy and the beach was pretty empty. But the light over the water! I truly love this post and am calling it my Best Post of the Week.

We went to Moses Lake WA for the first time, and I got to go to the Farmers Market and buy some fresh peaches. Is there anything prettier? I like this post very much and am calling it my Best Post of the Week.

I don’t know why I always want to take photos of boats in a marina. Maybe it’s the reflections, maybe it’s the neat picket of the masts, maybe it’s just the possibilities waiting for adventure. The Des Moines, WA marina looks good at sunset, doesn’t it?

At dinner out last night, the very late afternoon light was truly golden. A still life with shadows.
