Thanks Peggy.

I think I was hungry!

I'm glad you're enjoying them!

Beautiful images, as usual, Miss Peggy.

Everything they make, that I've tasted, is amazing!

I'm glad you're enjoying the photos.

And thank goodness for clever husbands!

Everything looked more gorgeous than normal today. No idea why!

And you'd better believe about clever husbands! He only spent maybe 5 minutes exploring the connection between the tripod and my camera before he got them separated! Way less time with better results than I'd gotten!

I was thrilled!

I was busy thanking him, and he started singing a little tune that he made up:

Once in a while, I'm good for something, once in a while I'm good for something . . .

And then I chime in:

All of the time, you're good for something . . .

We have fun!

The first (Ranunculus?) is stunning.

Yes, those first flowers are ranunculus and they just grabbed me!

So elegantly delicate

The minute I saw them, I knew I HAD to get a photo of them. The color really got me.

one of those fancy magazine about how to properly decorate and what to serve for an afternoon garden party!
Southern Living should be jealous or maybe calling you pretty soon!

Really great photos!

There are so many gifted photographers even in my neighborhood that it's hard to comprehend.

I do appreciate your kind words a lot!

That might be the most tempting set of photos I've seen this year, and I can't have any.
Just not fair.
Lol
They are beautiful.

I can't have any of them either (except very rarely and in small amounts!). They produce these goodies every week!

And every week I look at them and sigh. We do eat their quiche and love it, so that helps.

To EVERYTHING!!!

Beautiful, and thank you!

Well, if you live anywhere near Southern CA, come on and visit!

These folks are at the market every week and there is nearly always a crowd in front of their booth.

And now you know why.

I think probably I'd zoom right past the zucchini to get to the cheesecake.

It does look wonderful! Everything they make is so good.

A ray of light on a dismal day. Thanks.

Bringing beauty to everyone here makes me happy too.

Thank you, CaliforniaPeggy for sharing them with us. I always look forward to seeing your photos. Are you a professional photographer or just a talented amateur? In my youth, I took some pretty good pictures with my point-and-shoot camera, but I seem to have lost that ability in my "golden years"! Not the only thing I've lost, trust me. LOL!

By no means am I a professional photographer. I had one college class in the field and that was it. I did have one very good friend here on DU who had a master's degree in photography; AndyS was his name and he taught me a lot of the technical stuff.

I have always had the photographer's eye.

I'll bet, if you picked up a basic camera, that you would find your ability returning. It might take some time, but I'm willing to bet that would happen.

Taking photos, or making photos can change your view of the world! That was something that Andy taught me.
