The Signs Tell Us

Another beautiful day, even though it did rain this morning. The temperatures rose to the low 60's, and once it stopped raining it was actually really nice out there. Had to go for my EKG, the last item on the list in order to be cleared for my surgery on Thursday. Everything checked out ok, and now it is set to go. When we arrived home, the puppies were more than ready to go outside for their run around the yard, barking, and acting like the little monsters they are. They really go crazy. I noticed how green the grass has become, and it is getting tall. By the week's end, it will need to be mowed. A sure sign that Spring is here. Have a great night.
Isn`t it funny the little things we notice as photographers. Something so simple but makes such an interesting shot. Nice!

You did a wonderful job with that leaf. Good luck with your surgery.
March 21st, 2011  
What a great capture. Love the colours of the leaf in the grass. I was talking about you today. I was with a prayer group and mentioned your upcoming surgery. It's in good hands.
March 21st, 2011  
Glad you noticed and captured it. I am still waiting to see grass here! Much luck with your surgery. Your in my thoughts.
March 21st, 2011  
Nicely captured! Spring is upon us!

ahhhh I wish I was there! We had more snow today :(
March 21st, 2011  
God bless on your surgery Rick. We will be praying for you. Nice capture.
March 21st, 2011  
Love your composition and the colors are beautiful!
March 21st, 2011  
Oh, see, I do have some catching up to do. You will be in my thoughts and prayers too. I love the DOF and the vibrant green color of the grass.
March 21st, 2011  
Fantastic focus!
March 21st, 2011  
@hellcat Well it's nothing serious, but it is a complete joint replacement for my left thumb. I decided after consulting with an orthopedic surgeon that my best option to stop the constant pain is to have the surgery. If it stops the pain, then it will be worth it.
March 21st, 2011  
This looks so great. Nice and vibrant. Best of luck to you!
March 21st, 2011  
Love the colors- especially the green! Our greens are not that bold yet. Soon though- I hope.
March 21st, 2011  
Beautiful composition and I love the green! Prayers for you.

I love the greens in this shot. You are a little further South than I. I just got my yard partially uncovered from the snow. We did have a little snow today.
March 22nd, 2011

March 22nd, 2011  
No green grass here yet. Glad to see yours, though. We're going to be away for two weeks, so I'm certain the grass will green and the trees will bud while we're gone. Nice clear photo.

Beautiful shot, I love the bright colors.

Surgery? I either missed something or my mom brain forgot a post? Okay, I have to look back in your photos now...

awesome!
March 23rd, 2011  
I love the feeling when I come home and the dogs are jumping, barking, and just being happy to see me, isn't that great?
I wish you you are going to do well with your surgery
March 23rd, 2011  
It's amazing what they can do. I'm glad it's a small joint-- those larger ones have a long recovery time from what I can tell. Will be thinking of you, and praying for a speedy recovery. :)
March 23rd, 2011  
These colors are fantastic!
March 23rd, 2011  
Nice detail on this old leaf.

Yes every thing is growing , there is alot to do in the garden

Beautiful contrast in the colors. I'm sorry that I'm so behind in my comments.
March 25th, 2011  
Beautiful shot....it's amazing to me still how such simple things can turn into such lovely photos. You have a real talent for spotting a photo op when most would walk right by it! Nicely done.
March 26th, 2011  
I love how you got Fall and Spring in one shot, stunning!
March 26th, 2011
