The details of which I cannot relate, for the hour, my dears, is much too late!
For now, I’ll share some photos I took during the Golden Hour:
Goodnight!

Laura’s in Town!
My best friend is visiting with me, today. We had a lovely dinner at Roselli’s on 10th in N.Wilkesboro, NC. This was our view out the window.
In truth, there was a light wire between the window and the tree. I used Chatgpt to remove it.

Daffodils
It was overcast and warm, today, so I took some photographs of daffodils.
I used them to update our Facebook profile and cover photos.

Another photo app
This one is called BeCasso. You can try it for free (Apple products only,) but I’m so taken with it, I bought a year’s subscription. It basically re-renders your photo in different media and different artists’ styles. Here’s the hubs “painted” in pastels.
I also altered a photo of a rose I took this spring.
I took screenshots of the rose variations to show how simple it is to choose styles and effects.
I liked the last one so much, I decided to buy the “premium” subscription. I have only begun to play!

Car Hauler Collage
The only art I have claim to is the photographs and their selection for a new app, FotoDa. FotoDa combines chosen photos in different layers for a collage look.
To be continued…

Eye of the Peacock
I was shopping online for photos of peacock feathers, and thought, “I have a couple of peacock feathers, upstairs. Let’s see what I can get with the iPhone.”
These aren’t all, but I’m keeping all of them for now. Even the blurry ones can be blurred more and faded for backgrounds.
My old iPhone 6 seemed to take better macros. I still have it. I wonder if I charged it up, I could try a few super close shots? Another experiment for another day!

Peppermint Camelia
That’s what I call it, anyway.
There’s a bush full of these in our Charlotte neighborhood.

Azaleas, Rhododendrons, and Baby Blueberries!
How I love this time of year! I have a trip I dream of for this time of year. Relatives in Florida say the oranges come in, and the azaleas bloom there in February. The trip begins in Florida in February, I follow the flowers up the coast, and wind up here at home in April.
I was in Boone, NC, earlier this week. On the mountainsides, dogwoods and redbuds were blooming. When my flowers are finishing their spring show, I can go 20 miles up the mountain and extend the season! I’ve just expanded my dream trip!
Speaking of which, why not be in Florida when those February fruits are flowering? We stayed in Kissimmee one time in a hotel next to an orange grove. Whatever variety was growing in that grove was in full bloom. I remember thinking, Heaven will smell like this! (and a baby’s head, but that’s another post!) I’ll have to research when the oranges bloom and start my trip then, someday, when the grandkids are bigger and I can bear to stay away from them more than a week. (As long as it’s a dream trip, I believe I’ll just take them with me!)
For now, I’ll just enjoy the here and now:
I’ll end with this photo of baby blueberries since they are a promise of things to come!

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!!
I’ve said it before, but I think I like spring better than Christmas because the trees decorate themselves!
This is what the redbud and dogwoods are up to in my yard this year!
The bushes, and even the ground, get decorated !
My creeping phlox is up, pink flowering strawberry is in the hole, and…
Azaleas are on deck! Really! They should be blooming later this week, and I will be photographing them, then!
