I’m seeing a few nice Bluebonnet fields here & there but unfortunately this years crop is NOTHING like last years  when we had all of that lovely Spring rain.  Everything is so bitter dry this year but those tough little guys are poking their heads up anyway so if you’ve been waiting for Bluebonnet pictures I’d say within the next week or so would probably be the optimum time.  It’s always fun to incorporate them into Senior pictures as well!  Thanks for stopping by & enjoy your weekend.

My future Hall-of-Famer!

All of the shots had to  be taken through chain-link fence which was, um, a challenge to say the least when dealing w/a big honkin’ camera & lens but I’d get up the fence and poke the end of the lens through one of the openings of the fence as best as I could.  Hopefully their next tournament will be at fields which are more photographer-friendly!!

A quick thanks for all the sweet birthday wishes yesterday whether it was through Facebook, Twitter, emails, texts, calls, etc.  I love all of you and you sure know how to make a girl feel special!  ((hugs))
