Echium Bloom

It's exciting to see the first little, purple blooms on this Echium open up.  Soon this will be a purple spike covered in little blooms. 

Early Spring

We must be having an early Spring.. The Vibernum 'Spring Bouquet' is already blooming!

Beach Art

Someone dropped Carnations all along the beach where we were walking.  I caught this one right as the surf was passing by.  Flowers on the beach have a unexpected, beautiful tranquillity about them.  

Horse Teeth

I love the way this picture of these old horse teeth turned out.  It's amazing how something like a skull or rotten teeth can photograph so well.  I call this Ansel Adams teeth for the up close style photography.

Texas Lavender

Check out this dreamy picture of Lavendula provance lavender on a West Texas ranch.  I left my camera setting on 'close up' which made an interesting fade effect.

Caterpillar on Lemon tree

Check out this huge white saddleback caterpillar on my Lemon tree!  I honestly don't know what kind of caterpillar it is, but it is awesome.  Does anyone know what kind of caterpillar it is?

Plumeria blooming in fall

I never knew Plumeria could bloom in late October but this little pink Plumeria is blooming away!
