These were the first to bloom in our yard.
Got home this evening and saw couple of daffodils in bloom. I wasn’t really up to lying in the ground to take the pictures this evening. So had to cut this and take it indoor to picture this. Shooting indoors gives me much control in setting up the background and also I don’t have to deal with wind and such.
Although I have to admit, this would have been even prettier in its natural setting 😉
Bonus picture….
We bought this NB toddler sneakers for our little boy couple of months ago and with the nice weather outside, we thought of trying it out this evening. To our surprise our little ones feet is too big to fit in this cute little sneakers already. There goes another pair of sneakers to charity.
I bet this should make someone happy

I was pleasantly surprised this morning when I saw the beets germination – these pots were sitting in the tray atop the refrigerator (I had purposely seated them there to keep them warm). Previously I had read that it takes about 7-14 days for them to germinate. In my case it took only 5 days. Only thing I could think of is because I had the seeds soaked in cold water for a day before sowing them.
I love the colors of the emerging plant. I bet the beets will taste good as well 😉
Bought 2×50′ soaker hose from Costco this evening to replace our 5 year old Sears bought Craftsman soaker hose. Over the period of past 5yrs it has worn out quite a bit and has been patched and re-patched umpteen times.
While deciding on what to shoot for today’s post, I saw this shinny coupling and took few pictures with my trusty Nikkor 60mm macro lens using window lighting. I am really pleased the way it turned out. As soaker hose was dark, it worked out as a backdrop for this shinny coupling.
Bought these habanero chilies this evening to make homemade repellent to keep away rabbits from munching our flower/vegetable garden 😉
Yeah rabbits are cute – as long as they stay away from our garden…hopefully the spray I made of these hot chili peppers should keep them away.
Another macro capture using Nikkor 60mm macro. Never thought this lens will be used this often in my Photo 365 project. I will have to start using my other lenses in the days to come.
We had a perfect spring weather here in St. Louis and we visited St. Louis zoo today. Few pictures from our visit to the zoo.
