Lately most of my photography has been sewing and craft related, so I haven’t had many new wallpapers to share with you. However, came across these gorgeous July calendars today. I love that he has so many because I tend to change my wallpaper every few days. 
These are just few examples, to see all of them and get the size you need for your screen or device, go here. Enjoy!
Last year I thought it would be a nice idea to plant some strawberries in one of our raised beds. I order 25 plants of Gurney’s Fort Laramie strawberry.
What a bummer it was to read the directions and find that for the first year I was supposed to pick off all the blossoms from June to July. This meant we got a grand total of six strawberries last year. 
This morning, after picking a bowlful I can attest that it was worth the wait! These are tender, delicate little berries that you will never find in a supermarket. Their flavor is incredible, sweet and tart and full to bursting.
If you’re thinking about planting strawberries yourself, here are a few things to consider:
I’m off to dice some strawberries into my granola. Enjoy the wallpaper!

Just in time for Easter I’m coming out of photography hibernation and have this lovely hyacinth background for you. I’m really pleased with the way this one came out; the soft colors and dreamy background are just perfect.
One thing I’m learning as a photographer is that it’s the gray overcast days that make for nice photos. I’m a big fan of bright sunshine, so it’s taken me a while to get a grip on that idea. :-)
It had been hoped by many that I would have more winter pics this year. There were several times when I thought of you all and saw photo ops (particularly one brook that I drive by regularly that looked lovely with its banks all covered with snow.) However, I could never seem to persuade myself to pull the car over (anyhow there was no place closer than ½ mile to park because of the snow) then trudge through knee to waist deep snow only to risk falling into the brook myself while taking the photo. (My husband will agree, owing to my inherent klutziness, that that’s a definite possibility.) So, yeah, it never happened. Sorry. Hope you like flower pictures.

Even in the dead of winter, these buds give me hope for spring. It WILL come, it always does, just as he has promised.

This little sage plant must be tough, to be able to withstand all the snow we’ve had in New England so far this winter.

With several inches of newly fallen snow, and some time to kill at my son’s doctor’s office, I decided to it would be a shame to stay warm and dry in the car. Instead I bundled up and ventured out to see what I could see. (Something, you’ll note, I don’t do often, judging by the dire lack of photos in the “Winter” category!)
Mind you, this was in suburbia and there were no lovely snowy vistas to be found. However, it’s amazing what you find when you put your camera in macro mode.
Hope you enjoy this one as much as I have. To make Snow Berries your widescreen desktop wallpaper, click here, or here for standard format.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

This handsome fellow was seen at King Richard’s Faire when he was 10 months old. He is a rare male white tiger and his name is Lord Ivory. He is lordly indeed!
I just love cats, I think it’s something about that smug air of superiority they all have, whether wild or domestic. Such amazing creatures.

I had a layover in Las Vegas on my way home from a trip to New Mexico. It occurred to me that we just might be flying over the Grand Canyon, and a peek at a map confirmed this.
I’m so glad I thought of it, because the pilot never even mentioned that we were going to pass right over this natural wonder.
Anyhow, this is one of the few shots I got without the wing in the way. I hope you enjoy this spectacular bit of God’s creation.

Doesn’t this just make you want to go apple picking or hop on a hayride? It’s the quintessential New England scene.
Actually, at least one Sunday out of every October for the past several years, I’ve walked out of church, looked up at those gorgeous autumn leaves against the crisp blue sky and said, “I oughtta take a picture of that.” Finally, this year, my husband grabbed the camera and did so.

P.S. Not only is this a lovely scene, it’s also my home church, Grace Bible in East Bridgewater. You can learn more about it at www.gracebiblehome.org.
This lovely sunflower is from a collection I planted along my patio, it’s called Autumn Beauty
When I planted, I had visions of bringing you gorgeous photos of a mass of sunflowers of all different types, colors and heights. It was wonderful in my mind. Sadly, the neighborhood critters had different ideas. I had to cut and bring all of my sunflowers inside to enjoy, as the squirrels were destroying them to get at the seeds. They had the nerve to break off the stalks, rip off the heads, and then go sit at my picnic table to feast. (My husband suggested I just put the rest of the flowers on a silver platter for ‘em. )
Now that it’s October and getting chilly, I finally have to accept that summer is over. I love the warm weather, but, for consolation, the colors this time of year are glorious. I hope to bring you more soon.
