Photographic Friday...


Yesterday, we had a rare (rare for this spring season anyway), clear, dark blue sky, nothing but sunshine kind of day. It was a little cooler but that didn't stop me and Alexa from playing outside while waiting for Fiona to come home from school...





I got out my Macro lens and started taking some pictures. I LOVE my Macro lens, it allows me to capture a view of the world that is not often seen. It's also an extremely versitile lense...







The sky was soooo blue and looked so wonderful peering through this blooming tree. I must have taken ten pictures of it. It's moments like this that cause us to really appreciate what we have; like a beautiful sunny day during a spring that has seen more rain than any other in Ohio history! What are you grateful for today?

OK, what is a Marco lens?
I am still WITHOUT a camera, as my dwindling blog posts clearly illustrate. (hubby is working on replacing mine) Ohio and New York get much of the same weather. This has been such a horrible Spring. I love your flowering tree pic with that cobalt blue sky peeking through.
Keep clickin'
Cheers

Cassie, what gorgeous pics! I will definitely have to get my hands on one of these lenses someday soon!:-)

I concur with you & manyslices that it's been a horrible spring in the midwest and northeast! It's barely broken 60 deg. here, and I'm starting to think summer might not be coming at all this year!

Beautiful beautiful photos, Cassie!!
Thank you for stopping by my blog! I was bombarded with Mother's Day orders and haven't been around my favorite blogs for a while. It was good to 'see' you! Promise I'll stop by more often~

These are beautiful photographs. I like when you get out your macro lens. Love the chair, love the sky through the flowers
