Church Candles

Part of the day trip to St. Augustine included a visit to the Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine - well worth the visit.

Daytripping

A couple of weeks ago I made a day trip to St. Augustine. The day was drizzly and overcast but still I found some interesting things to shoot during my journey. One site which I had not seen since I was eight years old was the old fort there. It was just as I remembered, only maybe a little smaller. Or, maybe I am just a little bigger!

Tulips At The Farmers Market

"Tulips At The Market" - enhanced digital photo

I absolutely love visiting the Farmers Market on Saturday mornings in Forsyth Park and seeing, touching, smelling and tasting the best of the best of what this area has to offer in the way of produce. This time of year, tulips blaze like jewels and I couldn't resist snapping a couple of photos as I made my way through the crowd.

Pink Bunny

Pink Bunny is finally finished and soon will be on her way to her new home with Maria Lucia who is the new baby girl of my good friends Mary Beth and Rich. I wish I could take the painting myself, but the United States Postal Service will just have to do.

Roses in the Alley

"Roses In The Alley" - Enhanced Digital Collage

The photo from yesterday's blog post inspired this enhanced photo. I love the colors and textures which comprise this image. 

Lady Banks Roses

This is a prime example of extraordinary beauty in ordinary places. This beautiful Lady Banks Rose bush grows unattended next to a fence at the end of the parking lot where I park for work. Savannah was built on a bluff. River Street, where I work, is at the bottom of the bluff and Bay Street, where I park, is at the top. I make my way from my car to the shop via a maze of stairs, alleys and narrow passageways. The Lady Banks Rose sprays over the fence and forms an arch over the fire escape type stairway that I descend to reach Lower Factors Walk on my way to work. Such a lovely canopy!

Rainy Day Deck

Even a rainy day can be a source of inspiration.
