Birds on pilings

I would have called them pier supports, but I am told they are called pilings. They look more like chromosomes to me, actually! This was taken at Dyes Inlet in Silverdale, Washington, in February. I just wanted to look at some water that was not rain or drizzle. Isn’t it cool that this is a color image?

Sunset over Puget Sound

We went to an event at Pike Place Market yesterday on my birthday, and forget all about the artisanal food and wine going on—there was a scenic sunset moment that got all my attention. With a seagull!

Spring scene of tree near pond

This spring scene of a tree near a pond was taken on my recent trip to Connecticut. Don’t you just love the pattern of shadows? The reflection of the spring flowers on the water surface isn’t too shabby, either. What a lovely day that was. I am so glad I always have my camera with me! Speaking of which, don’t forget to download the “7 Secrets to Better Flower Photos” at the right. You don’t need more than a pocket camera to take really nice pictures, is how I feel about it.

Forsythia hedge in Connecticut

Visiting the New York area last week, I got to travel a bit around the Greenwich, CT area. With a spring landscape that can’t be beat, bursting into bloom from the warm weather they’d been having, I was in photo heaven when I saw this forsythia hedge just exploding in front of me. The sun peeked out and snap! I got it. Lucky me!

Clouds from above

Flying to New York City last week I got to see the late rays of the sun from such an unusual angle. I always get a window seat, as you never know what you might see. Flying east meant the light dimmed very quickly, but this view of the deep blue sky and the delicate textures of the top of the clouds really impressed me.

Transparent building

This “transparent” building was decorating my ride home in Seattle the other day. I love how glass looks on buildings at times like this. Something so simple as glass doing something so magical!

Please visit  Skywatch Friday for magnificent sky photos taken around the planet. Also check out Scenic Sunday, Outdoor Wednesday, SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera), A Piece of Heaven, Weekend Reflections, and Shadow Shot Sunday 2.

I will be away for a week or so and have scheduled some blog posts for while I am gone. I hope you enjoy them and look forward to sharing some new photos with you from the New York City area when I return.

Burien rainbow

Even a plain old rainbow is worth looking at. March is definitely rainbow month around here. Hope you enjoy this one.

It’s a stretch to say this qualifies for Watery Wednesday, but all that water vapor has to be in the air, right? No water, no rainbow. Other neat places to check out are Scenic Sunday, SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera), Mellow Yellow Monday, Outdoor Wednesday, Skywatch Friday and Wordless Wednesday. Thanks for visiting here!

Sunset with Space Needle

Everybody loves sunsets. It’s just one of those human things, I guess, to love a beautiful thing that lasts but a moment. This sunset with Seattle’s iconic Space Needle in it was a silver lining, you might say, when I was trapped in traffic going down a big hill. I watched as the sky turned from gray clouds to pinkish and then peak at a deep coral with lavender undertones, and was able to stick my camera out of the side window and have at it. Just for Skywatch Friday!

Pond at Highline Botanical Garden

Browsing through the archives for a water photo for Watery Wednesday, I found this photo of the pond at Highline Botanical Garden (north of SeaTac Airport) taken exactly two years ago. We had sun like this today but it was super cold out, with actual snow decorating the lawn this morning. I was so happy that I had this fresh-looking scene to share with you today.

Bare trees against the sky

Here’s a pretty little scene for you, even though many trees are still dormant. Signs of spring are around, but the still-bare branches do have their beauty.

As you might know, Google Friend Connect has vanished from all non-Blogger sites. Darn! Please follow this blog on the sidebar at the right with the new Linky Tools. Thank you.
