A few old pictures and a few new make up my entries this week. For one of these I just didn’t want to try to compete w/ an old picture I had (Sun Flare).
All taken w/ Canon Rebel XS or my HTC Thunderbolt.

A Simple Thing:
The beautiful scent of our lilac bushes drew me outside. The butterflies littering the bushes were my simple pleasure for the week.

Great set of photos, I love your cloud shot!
@Anesha,
Thanks Anesha. I took that shot a few years back and remain proud of it to this day 🙂
Beautiful!!! So pretty!
Whoa. The first picture is crazy cool! Beautiful. Great set.
@Abby,
Thanks! I took that shot just standing in my driveway. I saw the rainbow and just had to capture it.
Nice set. Love the first one.
Hi there!
Visiting from the simple things blog. I adore the picture of the butterfly on the purple flowers. Something about it is so peaceful and still…

@Allison,
That was one of my favorite shots from this week. Funny thing was there was a heck of a wind so the butterflies kept shutting their wings every time the flowers started blowing around. It seems so much more peaceful than those poor things had it LOL
Your clouds and sun flare are my favorites although I honestly love them all. The quotes all add to the beauty. Have a great day!
@Karen,
Thanks Karen. I love adding quotes to my weekly shots. I love the process of finding them 🙂
Sun Flare is definitely one of my favorites too 🙂
Visiting from Simple Things.
Love all the images and quotes. As a crocheter, I especially love the sunburst coming through the afghan. Lovely.
@Kelly Chiodi,
Thanks, Kelly!! I made that afghan almost 8 years ago before my daughters birth. Today it’s one of their favorites, and that makes me so happy.
When I saw the sun shining through the afghan when I had it on the line I had to get this shot. It just made me so happy.
oooh those clouds are absolutely beautiful – to capture a rainbow within them…very impressive.
beautiful sun flare!
These are all really great.
Love the Clouds and the fabulous Rainbow amongst them.
Wonderful Sun Flare
