Between a rock and a hard place.

I noticed this pine cone on the way up to my apartment one day. I thought it had fallen in such an unusual spot I had to take pictures. Of course with my lack of knowledge, ability, and equipment (I'm working on all three) I didn't get "the shot" I was looking for, but these are some of the better ones. Click to enlarge.

It reminds me....

This reminds me of the little verse "Alice". It goes like this:

Alice stepped in the bathtub
Slipped on a bar of soap

Oh my goodness!
Bless my soul!
There goes Alice down the hole!
WHOOOOOOPS!

It seems like these little guys are on a mission to fish Alice back out again. At least that's what I tell myself instead of the alternative, which is that my son was just trying to make trouble.

I Don't know why

I don't really know why, but there's something about spring that makes me gravitate towards plants. This tree is in the courtyard of our apartment building. I love that the colors are what you'd expect for fall, but in spring! They aren't the best shots, I just had a point and shoot, but they'll do.

Ray of Sunshine

This photo inspires me. I looked out our sliding glass door and couldn't help but feel uplifted. The composition seemed so poignant to me. A dark ominous looking future, but there is always a ray of hope somewhere.
