I’ve got an itch for takeout instead of leftovers. This is the same duck that I had posted here and here back in June. I didnt’ realize I…

This shot was taken last August. I’m pretty sure I was out at Saquish beach and these clouds came rolling in. Last week when I was looking the…

As I was walking over to DD Ramler Park to take yesterday’s image and passed by this tulip. How amazing are the colors and design of this flower!

Some more signs that Spring has arrived. Flowers have slowly begun to bloom this past week. It’s good to see vibrant colors once again.

Signs of Spring are finally starting to pop up out of the ground and off of branches. I just loved the color of this little flower. While Spring…
