Our assignment from Beth at I Should Be Folding Laundry this week was “nature”. Quite a bit easier than “feel”!
I was practicing my sun flare for this shot. I love my lilac bush right now-it smells AWESOME! And it’s right below our bedroom window so our room smells really nice!
I took this shot at the park the other day. I love the bark and how it curls at the end. I’ve never seen a tree like this before.
There was one other bit of nature I sort of wish I’d caught on camera, but not really. The other night, I was about to head upstairs to bed, when I started to hear a sort of screaming. At first I thought it was one of the boys, but it didn’t really sound like that. I asked Andy if he could hear it (he was upstairs already) and he said it was coming from outside. I was really creeped out! We looked outside, but couldn’t see anything, and the screaming stopped. Then we saw it. The fox. He came traipsing down the street, seemingly content, probably with a full belly. Full of rabbit, I think. Keep in mind that I live in the suburbs. Not the “country” by any means. But we are full of wildlife around here. And we experience the circle of life like anywhere else. Ick.
Check out the other captures!
Well, I do not know if I would have loved the fox but that tree is amazing!!!
I can smell those flowers from here – fantastic and creative!
Beautiful shots! I love lilac but it’s not the easiest to shoot…you did a great job of creating an original and lovely photo!
Your captures are awesome. I love lilacs and the sun flare is amazing.
Are those lilacs. I’m jealous ours got froze out. And the bark on that tree is awesome. Great job.
Love your pictures. I have never seen a tree like that.
Perfectly beautiful! Your first shot is amazing – great flare and HOW did you get it to be purple to match the lilacs!?
love them, especially the first one!

Your sun flare throught the lilac bush is stunning. STUNNING! I love how the sun is a purplish color. The tree is so full of wonderful texture.
How crazy to have a hungry fox in your neighborhood. We have them out here, but I live in the sticks!
Awesome shots!
