Month: June 2012

Red Leaves

The color in these shots look more like fall to me than Spring. However, I did take them at the beginning of June. I love how the blue…

Vibrant

I didn’t do any processing to the colors in these photos. The roses were so vibrant in the James P. Kelleher Rose Garden. I managed to also capture…

Close By

Another shot in The Fenway (part of the Emerald Necklace). This time as I was leaving work to walk to the train I came across this mother and…

Hawk

As I was walking to work along The Fenway I looked up and saw this magnificient creature. I took a few shots with my smaller camera but then…

Flat Tire

On the not so positive side, I got a flat tire on Saturday. To make it even worse I forgot my phone at home (and I never forget…

Red Robin

We saw lots of Robins. Quite a few of them were pretty plump. More springtime babies coming soon.

Lit Leaves

I loved how the light made these leaves pop.

Yellow Iris

Some more yellow that caught my eye.

Lilly Pad

The bright yellow of this bud caught my eye.

Spring Goslings

Springtime means the babies are here. These goslings were getting pretty big. Just a little fuzz and yellow left on them.

Purple Iris

Lots of lovely flowers on our photo walk through Plymouth.

Goose

Not only was the swan bathing while we were at the park but also the geese were taking a bath. Apparently, we arrived just after their lunch time…

Happy 50th Birthday, Jack!

Don’t hate me for this, Jack! I just wanted to share with everyone that my big brother turns 50 today! I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful…

Swan

On Friday, a friend and I went for a photo walk in Plymouth. At first the weather was overcast, which is good for taking closeup shots but not…

Deborah Sampson

At the 305th birthday tea celebration for the town of Plympton, Deborah Sampson made an appearance. The most interesting part I thought was the fact that the person…

Dessert Time

While I would have loved to pop a handful of these treats into my mouth, I only took one strawberry dipped in chocolate. My first week of trying…

Tea Time

Three days after I started my healthy eating (for the month of June and hopefully beyond) I went to a tea party for Plympton’s 305th birthday. They had…

Breakfast of Champions

I enjoy a good hearty breakfast. A little fruit for something sweet, an organic egg, and some chicken sausages (range free, no antibiotics, etc.) do the trick. It’s also…

Pork Chop with Black Raspberry Sauce

I had high hopes for this black raspberry sauce but it didn’t taste up to my expectations. I crushed up fresh black raspberries, added some orange juice and…

Chicken Salad with Apples, Grapes and Walnuts

Once Memorial Day is over it’s always a reminder that summer is only a few weeks away and that I need to lose the winter fat. So, on…

Turtle Time

No, I didn’t plant a golf ball or Photoshop anything into the top photo! I was actually lucky enough to catch this turtle laying her eggs. I discovered…
