I’ve recently discovered how much fun it is to take photos of moving water with long exposures. Because you have to leave the shutter open for several seconds for these shots, which lets a lot of light in, these photos were taken when it was almost dark out. I could buy an expensive filter that would allow me to do this in the daylight, but then I’d rob the mosquitos the chance to bite me at dusk.

I added some whimsical features to my garden this year and they have been really fun to photograph.
Orange blooms of the blanket flower contrast with the tiny blue birdhouse.
Bright rudbeckia in the front corner with our border behind. Some decorative birdhouses can be seen on the clothesline pole behind. A toddler’s rocking chair, a yard sale find, serves as a stand for a basket of annuals.
An old wooden stepladder holds the small birdhouses.
My faithful gargoyle, Murphy, stands guard.

The wait for this dahlia to bloom was worth it.

A peach-coloured double daylily, given to me by a lovely friend.
Enjoy the blooms where you are.

As I begin this blog, I think (at this time anyway) that it will be a blog of few words and many photographs. I love to take and share photographs and, well, we will see where this takes me.
To begin, here are a few of my favourites from the last few weeks.
Flowers on the mallow plant, in my mother in law’s garden.
Lupines growing wild in rural Ontario.
