I don’t usually write about very serious things, but that’s the way it is now. These are hard times, you guys. I never imagined I could ever live through something like this. It’s hard, so hard. It’s frustrating and frightful to feel so powerless. Some days are pretty good, other days are tolerable, and other … Continue reading Uncertainty

Toamna
Toamna este un anotimp al extremelor. Dimineața îți îngheață nasul și degetele când ieși din casă dar la mijlocul zilei mori de cald. La soare parcă ești într-un cuptor dar la umbră e prea răcoare. Când e soare e prea lumină, când e noros parcă e noaptea. Și pe-afară e o învălmășeală de chestii, unele … Continue reading Toamna
Red, Orange and Yellow
October is here. The weather is beautiful now and there are lots of nice things outside to photograph. I just wish I could stay outside more but there are not enough hours in a day. — I am participating in Friendly Fill-Ins hosted by Four-Legged Furballs and 15 and Meowing. 😊 Here are my fill-ins: … Continue reading Red, Orange and Yellow

Up Close
Quality macro photography is quite hard to achieve without a tripod. It’s so hard to stay crouched in the grass and keeping the camera still at the same time. I could have done better. I did a little better when I photographed the butterflies, it was raining lightly, the air was fresh, it was overcast … Continue reading Up Close
The Pretty Yellow Flowers
This little boy loves flowers. Roses are his favourites but he said these yellow flowers were pretty too. By the way, can anyone tell me their name? (Note to self: buy that app that tells you the name of all plants) Also from the garden: water for bees, greenery and a yellow leaf. It’s full … Continue reading The Pretty Yellow Flowers
Flowers, Bugs and Ducks
Surprisingly, the ducks posed for me. I thought they would freak out but they were curious. Ducks are so funny, by the way. They walk funny and talk funny and have a very high level of adorableness. Even higher than the chickens, I dare to say. While the chickens look like they’re always grumpy, ducks … Continue reading Flowers, Bugs and Ducks
