I thought spring was here.

By Silver Blue

Mother Nature seems to have other plans. Still, there is joy to be found. Here’s a memory I call “Kiss the Rain.”

Roses, rain. Somehow the two seem to compliment each other. – Silver Blue

Sometimes, it’s best not to try to steer the river, but merely go with the flow. – Silver Blue

Apologies…

By Silver Blue

….but I couldn’t get IN to make a blog post last night due to network issues. Today is a new day, however, and so I will present you with a seagull attempting to replicate the famous Barbra Streisand “People” album cover.

There may have been snow yesterday…

By Silver Blue

…but in my heart, it’s summer. Ergo, allow me to share an awesome shot of roses, taken last year at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens.

I beg your pardon…

Happy Palm Sunday everyone.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…

By Silver Blue

Sorry, readers, to have been away for so long. I’ve been so busy with my day job, and attempting to sneak in time for Photo Phridays, Snapshot Saturdays, and everything else that I’ve neglected the blog. So, for those who aren’t following  me on Facebook, here’s a selection of photos taken at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg during their Christmas Town celebration:

What time is it?

By Silver Blue

Ask the dandelion clock. What’s a dandelion clock?

A children’s amusement in which the number of puffs needed to blow the filamentous achenes from a dandelion is supposed to tell the time.  ( http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dandelion_clock )

Silver Blue, who reminds you that when you ask the time of a dandelion clock, you must not be afraid of the answer.  (paraphrased from Madeline L’Engle, A Swiftly Tilting Planet)

It’s Electric.

By Silver Blue

I’m just glad it’s air-to-air, and not air-to-ground.
