Oh! To be this bird, perched on this fabulous rock, soaking up the sunshine. I love the sound of the birds in the morning when we visit Monhegan. It’s fabulous how the sun sparkles on the water.

A short post for today – photos this week – Have a great day and I’ll catch you back here tomorrow!

Over the Moon

Michigan Moon Over River

Be still my heart. Look at that moon! The subtle glow reflected in the pinkish water. I tell you, when I’m in Michigan I’m constantly running outside to snap photos of basically the same location. The ways in which this one view changes makes me so happy. It goes from sun, to wicked dark & stormy skies, to pop your eyes out sunrises and sunsets and now this… moon glow!

I’m over the moon with this moon shot 😉

Catch you back here tomorrow!

Geranium in the Spotlight

On way out the door the light on the geranium caught my eye. Truly a geranium in the spotlight! I grabbed my phone and snapped a photo and off we went. Later I saw that the background was black. Cool! It really makes the geranium stand out!

Whew, time flies… can you believe it’s already the second week in June? That’s crazy! I hope you find some time to enjoy your summer!

Catch you back here tomorrow!

A Michigan Sunset…

I am crazy about a sunrise or sunset. This is a Michigan sunset, near my parents house. They have such wonderful skies. Seems like it’s so dramatic a good bit of the time.

Enjoy your Saturday, take time to soak in the beautiful views wherever you may be!

What’s better than a geranium full of buds?

Truly! What is better than a geranium full of buds? They’re so pretty and illuminate the table that they are now sitting on in the yard. It seems every time I look in the backyard it is glowing. This geranium is also pretty with the wild ferns in this photo… I love the shadows in the backyard – beautiful!

Fresh as a daisy!

I have always loved daisies. They have a simple beauty about them. They aren’t bright or flashy, they’re just pretty and fresh. Hence the saying “fresh as a daisy” – full of energy and enthusiasm!

Wishing you a fresh-as-a-daisy day!

When thank you is not enough…

This is one of my favorite homes in Charleston, SC. We used to walk by it when we worked at a gallery on Broad Street. It’s got such charm! Of all the times I have walked by this house I have NEVER walked by without a car parked in front of it, so when I saw this I was ecstatic! SNAP that photo! I could sit on that porch all day long! So much to see right in this spot…

Have a wonderful Memorial Day, remember the reason behind this day off for many…. Thankful for all those who served and lost their lives fighting for this country.  🇺🇸 #thankyouisnotenough  🇺🇸

Charleston Photo: Happy Sunday!

Charleston, SC architecture is stunning. Many of these homes are very old. I love the patina of the exteriors, the intricacies of the gates, the scale of things… so grand! Can you imagine what it was like several hundred years ago building homes so detailed and so extremely large? Impressive to say the least!

Happy Sunday!

Flowers… again!

There has been a common theme to most of my posts this week… flowers. They’re stunning, in all shapes, colors and sizes they have been abundant this week! This is a photo I took of an arrangement that we had from a friend. Beautiful, isn’t it? So fresh and different!

Happy day!

When things seem impossible…

When things seem impossible… remember they are not! How can plants grow in tiny crevices between a slab of concrete and a concrete wall? Where there is a will, there is a way! Always believe it!

That’s my glass-half-full thought for the day!

Marion Square Flowers – Charleston, SC!

The plants in Marion Square (Charleston, SC) are stunning… I believe these are called Coneflowers? Correct me if I’m wrong… There are some stunning flowers in this world, isn’t there?

Keep your eyes out for the beauty… the little things… it’s there if you look! 👀

I can’t even make it through Lowes…

Beautiful, right? We were zipping through Lowes and up high on a shelf I saw these beauties… I reached up high and snapped a photo. That’s right, I can’t even make it through Lowes without taking a photo. There is probably a cure for this, but I don’t want to know what it is!

Enjoy your day!

Water Lilies – No Filter…

I took a photo of some Water Lilies while visiting a local garden center/nursery. Ah, they have beautiful flowers and plants. There is usually someone directing traffic in and out it’s that crazy. It was a very bright day, so no filter was used on this photo, the flowers don’t look real. The lily pads do, but not the flowers. It was stunning!

Happy Saturday!

Horton Hayes Fine Art – Charleston, SC!

Horton Hayes Fine Art – 12 State Street, Charleston, SC. The gallery is now located at this location as well as 27 1/2 State Street (the studio is in this location). Both locations are fabulous. I have always loved this building – it’s so classy with the black trim. All the textures in the building are stunning…  Check out the artists… top notch – and most recently added: Rhett Thurman! A perfect addition!
