I am not sure what kind of plant this is but I took this photo in Maine a couple of weeks ago before any leaves had started to sprout.

Jelly Bean Bush, Lensbaby

With Easter fast approaching the Jelly Bean harvest is in full swing! Here is a red Jelly Bean plant that has been harvested already by the Jelly Bean farmers. Near by there were green, orange, and even black jelly bean plants all waiting to be harvested for Easter Candy!

Haha just joking obviously :) I dont know what this plant is but the berries do look like jelly beans to me!

Spark Plug, Lensbaby, Snow Blower

Another shot of our old and faithful snow blower (An 8HP International Harvester Cadet 268)  from my last post this time of the spark plug. I will probably post a few more photos of this snow blower from different angles as I found it an interesting subject!

String Reindeer, Macro, Pentax K10d, Tamron 70-300

Well I can pretty much guarantee this will be one of the strangest photoblog posts you will see today! As I was sitting at my desk I saw this string hanging from the window shade and it just kept looking like a reindeer jumping to me. I don’t know if I am suffering from cabin fever or what but I just had to take the photo and see if others thought so too! Hopefully I am not going crazy :)

Sorry there has not been as many posts by me lately with all this winter weather and cold its harder to get out and take good photos. Hopefully I will start taking more photos soon.

Here is another photo I shot this past weekend after the very small first snow storm of the year. As you can see we did not get much snow at all but I liked the way the melting snow on these leaves looked.

Fall Flowers Vine Autumn Fall

Try saying that 5 times fast :) I took this photo yesterday because I thought these decaying flowers looked really cool. The petals seem to be turning into an almost fur like substance! Here is a photo of these same flowers I posted awhile back before they started dying to compare them!

Garden, Flowers

Here is a shot I took a couple of months ago of a flower garden that was in downtown Wolfeboro, NH.

Raspberry, Berry, Macro

I know its not the prettiest Black Raspberry plant but the berries still tasted good! :)

Berry Blast

Clematis Blossoms

You may remember that back in July (see post) I was lamenting that a rabbit had eaten the Clematis flowers in our yard. Well I am happy to report that they just recently bloomed again and in fact this is the most flowers I have ever seen on the plant! So maybe having rabbits eat the early blooms is the key :)

I just took this photo about a half hour ago while playing with my new compact camera. I had been looking for a smaller compact camera to use as my “take everywhere” camera so that on the occasions when it is inconvenient to lug my DSLR and lenses with me I can still take a camera with me in case I want to take any photos. Anyways the camera I settled on was the Panasonic TZ5 mainly because it has a huge range for such a small camera (28mm-280mm) and also because it has a great video mode that can even record videos in true HD! I got it in the mail today and so far I am liking it alot. I may write a review for it here after I have had some time to play with it more.

Bee Heaven, Cone Flower, Bumblee Bee

If I were a bee these flowers would look pretty yummy to me! I did no processing at all on this shot this is right from the camera and to my photoblog.
