Petals

Happy Birthday, Mom! These rose petals are for you. Love you.

Polka Dots

These are the white roses from yesterday’s shot. As you can see they weren’t all white but had pink polka dots. I love the polka dots.

White Roses

Pretty white roses. I was supposed to be flying back to Boston today from Florida but with the Nor’easter hitting I’ve switched my flight to Friday. I like…

Duck

I don’t pull out the 55-250mm lens as much as I should but when I do I’m very happy with the results. This duck was relaxing in the…

Swan

Not only are there swan boats in the Public Garden but there are also real swans. I love how this duck is looking at the swan and how…

Reaching for the Sky

I had taken a bunch of photos last Spring but never posted them because I was posting images from my Italy vacation for months. When I went back…

Line ‘Em Up

A closer shot of the tulips from yesterday’s photo. Aren’t they gorgeous?! The colors look so vibrant compared to all the snow and rain we’ve had here this…

Inside the Green

Another shot with the macro lens. I’m not sure what this bush is but it looks like some type of pine needle thingy. I liked how the little buds…

Leaf Bud

I have no idea what plant this bud is from. It’s the same as the leaves from Friday’s photo. Again, I was playing with the macro lens so…

I Didn’t Leave

Not all leaves fall of the trees and plants during the Fall. The color of these leaves caught my eye. I think they look so pretty against the…

It’s Magic

I’ve been told these berries are from an Indian Magic Crabapple Tree. I think it’s magic that the tree can still have these red berries in the bitter…

December 31, 2009: A Light Dusting of Snow

We got a light dusting of snow during the day on New Year’s Eve. Just enough to make the branches on the trees look very pretty. Maybe it…

Squirrel Snack

A couple weeks ago when I brought my camera to work I walked through the Central Burying Ground located in the Boston Commons. I spotted this squirrel and…

Snow Squirrel

The top shot is one of those shots where you think “man, I hope that one comes out.” As I was walking back to my apartment I heard…

Early Morning Snow

The nice thing about a snowstorm on a Sunday morning is that most people aren’t up yet. There’s such a wonderful feeling of tranquility when walking around in…

Red Berries

The red berries are always extra vibrant when it snows. They jumped out at me as I was walking by this bush. Not as much snow on these…

Baby, it’s getting cold outside

I mentioned that last week we had a 70° day and now the weather has turned. It’s cold in the morning, high 20s, but warms up into the…

First Snow

Talk about crazy New England weather…yesterday we had the first snow of the season (in my area anyway) while just 4 days ago I was sitting outside eating…

Gobble, Gobble

Happy Thanksgiving! There is so much to be thankful for but most of all I am thankful for my wonderful family and good friends in my life. There’s…

Blooming?

It seems as if this Magnolia tree is a little confused, winter’s approaching and yet this tree looks as if it’s starting to get ready to bloom again….

The Lone Acorn

Another image that was all about the colors and textures in the shot. I really love the natural colors of Fall and this lone acorn. There are tons…

Bare

The leaves here are quickly falling off the trees. Thankfully they are in different stages so not all trees are bare, as you can see from this image….

Water Texture

Besides the sounds of the sea I really like the look of the ocean water. Whether it is a tropical blue (Blue Grotto in Italy comes to mind)…

Flower at Post Office Square

This week I’m going back to some of my shots from the Scott Kelby World Wide Photo Walk (July). This flowers was located in Post Office Square. On…
