For a long time I have wanted to try the idea of taking at least "One PIcture a Day." I have read this discipline helps one develop photographic skills. I have also wanted to develop "sharp eyes" that can see Interesting picture possibilities in the ordinary rhythm of life. I hope some of my photos will be beautiful, others may be unusual or serve as a photo journal. Some might be humorous and I expect some will be quite boring. Hopefully some will stimulate your thoughts and reflections.

The Aroma of Spring
Not far from our home is this lovely lilac bush which adds beauty to the season and to the whole neighborhood. As I got closer to take the photo I was amazed at the fragrance in the air. These blossoms are not just beautiful but they also produce an aroma that makes you think of spring.
We had a long row of lilacs on the farm where I grew up and remember that we enjoyed the beauty in the yard but also small branches cut were made into center pieces for the tables.
The color and aroma of lilacs are very seasonal so we have to enjoy them now. Soon the flowers will be gone and we are left with a lot of green leaves. Of course we will enjoy the green also.
