As the weather warms and the rain falls, the pussy willows are making the transition from fuzzy buds to leaves.  I was able to save these two small branches for indoor photography.  They were very cooperative models.

Wolfe Street

I drove past this part of my neighborhood a few days ago and was reminded of this shot I took in 2011. I originally processed it in a sepia tone and converted it to black and white for Monochromia. On a Sunday morning as daylight was breaking my husband parked the car sideways in the street to block it as I set my tripod up on the traffic line. Everything was damp from a brief shower moments before. Flower petals everywhere. I’ll never forget it.

The Opportunist

I was cooling my heels outside a store while my friend shopped. Not wanting to stray too far while waiting, I explored the immediate surroundings with my camera and that’s when I noticed this little gem that I wouldn’t have seen otherwise. I love the way the vine has snaked it’s way through the rusted flagpole bracket. I took a moment to make three exposures, and right on time, out she came.
