Carolannie--temporarily AWOL's photostream

I am increasingly finding myself photographing plants (my primary passion). I also find myself on my stomach a lot trying to do that photography since most plants in this area are constrained by the lack of rainfall. When it does rain, the plants often spring up to great heights.

In 2009, we were blessed with ample precipitation, and folks in the area were stunned by how green things are. "So much foliage! So many flowers!"

2010 here! and yet another banner year for rain on the Front Range in Colorado (USA)...the year I got at least 3 great slime molds in my yard. And the tomatoes sulked. And the peas bore fiercely, while the lettuce wussed out. Interesting weather leading to interesting results.

2011...and my eyesight has deteriorated due to cataracts and corneal dystrophy; the perils of old age. I stopped taking photos for the time being because the experience of having out of focus shots was so frustrating....but I will be getting surgery next spring, so onward and upward!



No awards please. You should feel free to just view and enjoy.
