Pink Beauty

I walked by this rhododedron recently and knew that I wanted to capture the blossoms when they were in bloom.  It is such an unusual shade of pale pink.  Most of our rhododedrons are either fuchsia or red.  

With the sun full bright and cooperating this weekend I was lucky enough to get a few shots of this beauty. 

Isn't this exquisite !!!

This is the time of year when you want to have your camera handy as the gardens are bounty with gorgeous blossoms from the trees and shrubs.

What's next ?

To Be of Use

At my local yarn store there is a picture that I love of a set hands knitting, There is something so right about that picture.  It looks so beautiful to see hands creating.   I've been thinking about taking a picture of my own hands while I'm knitting, so I can frame it and see it all that time.

Not long after I was thinking of hands  knitting I read this  To Be of Use , it's from a different perspective than knitting but it's all the same really.   I was going to just share the write up but the pictures convey so much meaning.   Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
