Pot O' Gold

Thursday night was a mixture of rain and sun, a combo that's bound to make a rainbow sooner or later.

I was thinking at the time that I should probably go looking for the end of the rainbow so I could claim my pot o' gold.

M-O-O-N Spells Moon

The moon is shining brightly this evening.  It looks like a full moon, but I guess it isn't officially a full moon until Wednesday.

I didn't think I'd get too much because it was already high in the sky, but with my longest lens and some Photoshop cropping, it turned out pretty decent. 

I especially like the shadows of the craters in the upper and lower left.

Candy Stripe

My Candy Stripe Creeping Phlox is the only Phlox I have with variegated flowers.  They look good enough to eat right now.  I wonder if they taste like candy canes.  Probably not.

Walking around and enjoying all the flowers gives me the "warm fuzzies."

Bleeding Hearts

I have several bleeding heart plants in the yard.  The flowers are so delicate and dainty. 

Oh Dandy Lion

Nothing heralds in Spring like dandelions.  We spend the rest of the growing season trying to eradicate them.  But if you can get past the weed aspect, they are pretty in their own right.
