There she goes again...

What, just because I'm taking more images of people these days, did you actually think I could give up on the flowers?

Nope. Can't do it. I saw these guys and instantly, my brain thought, "Must. take. picture." That's what's great these days. I feel like wherever I go, I'm thinking more and more like a photographer and finding an excuse to make art. I shudder to think of what will happen if — down the line — I can pick up that macro lens I want.

These beautiful poppies belong to a neighbor down the road from us. Ironically enough, his name is Steve Bell. He's a retired BSU t-com prof and was the former anchorman for ABC's Good Morning America back in the '80s. I figured, if he came out finding a person taking photos of flowers in his driveway, at least I could explain that I knew him (and I interviewed him when he retired from BSU, so all's fair I say ...) Anyway, I say this a lot about flowers, but poppies truly are one of my favorites. They are just so gorgeous. I mean, these shots are straight out of camera — and anything this bold and this beautiful deserves to be a favorite in my book.

Hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. I've got another fun project to process this week and get up on the blog before Nick and I take off this coming weekend to meet our new niece in Tennessee!
