Backyard Blossoms

Our backyard is still blooming beautifully. (Try saying that five times fast) I was trying out the close up setting on my camera and here are some of the shots I came up with.

Hump Day Hunt - Week 27

The word of the week at Fotopherrets is: Fountain

I have so many pictures of fountains. It's hard to decide which one I like the best. It seems every garden that you go to has at least one fountain.





These are two views of a fountain I spotted in downtown Hershey. It's probably one of only a handful of fountain shots that aren't in a garden.

Ducks and Geese, Oh My!

Seen at Hershey Gardens

Blooms

I've been very meticulous with the garden this year. Between my nephew and I we've planted loads of marigolds, snapdragons, african daisies. You name it, we've planted it.

Here are a few fruits or rather flowers of our labors.

Hump Day Hunt - Week 26

The word of the week at Fotopherrets is: Statue

My photo is of the usual type statue found in gardens, a handmaiden and her jug.



Now I will commence whining about wanting to go back to Hershey!

Butterflies

Violas

I was fiddling with my close up setting this weekend. Aren't these violas lovely

Butterfly On My Shoe

This little guy landed on me while we were in the butterfly house at Hershey Gardens. Poor little thing was injured.

Favorite 5 Photos

I'm a day late and a dollar short, but here are my 5 favorite shots from mid-May through Mid-June, care of Favorite Five Photos

Hump Day Hunt

The word of the week at Fotopherrets is cute.

In the past few weeks I've taken loads of pictures of cuteness.



It was so hard to decide what shot to use. I do think this family of Canadian geese are adorable. After all, I think I've posted most of my prairie dog pictures already.

So go on and give these cute little birds some lovin'.
