No, I wasn’t at the dog show stealing leashes! I was just ‘swiping’ them! 🙂 My photography friends will know what I mean! A swipe is an image taken while moving the camera up and down to create an abstract of the scene. (Thank you John Barclay!) I’ve always wanted to try this with the colorful leashes that are for sale at the dog shows! What fun! The leash vendor probably thought I was nuts! 🙂 I think I’ll be ‘swiping’ more leashes in the future!

How could I take the elevator when this beautiful staircase was beckoning? I love the colors and design!

Today is the day that the boats must be removed from the water at the lake. Beginning tomorrow, all remnants of summer will be removed – docks, buoys, and these rope floats. These are the floats that separate the swimming area from the boating/water skiing area on the water. Such a contrast seeing them with the reflected color from the trees. I’m thankful that the boats and docks were allowed to be left in the water a little longer this year as they make a nice focal point for Fall photoraphy. I spent a little while photographing before sunset yesterday enjoying the last light of the day.

This afternoon I spent a little while photographing the flowers in my garden. My most favorite, Honeysuckle, is in bloom and the fragrance in the garden is delightful! With the mild winter and lots of rain we’ve had this spring, my flowers are blooming better than ever! The Honeysuckle is starting to fade, so I wanted to snap a few images before it is too late. When I came back in the house, I turned on the computer and visited some of my favorite blogs. I found a beautiful post by my friend, Sam Gray, featuring a Honeysuckle. Check out his post here and be sure to visit his photo blog often – his work is amazing: http://designbysamgray.com/blog/2012/06/09/sweet-smelling-honeysuckle/
Below are some more images of “What’s In Bloom” currently in my garden: Clematis, Daisy and Spirea.
