A cottontail in my yard today!
A cute little bunny BUT, I am planting my veggie garden in May, so I'm going to have to block the entrance holes in the fence!

Note Card Party - April 17
I rarely edit my photos, some cropping and sharpening is usually all I do. I recently started dabbling with some of the many editing buttons in photo editors, and found it's a lot of fun. Although I am truly a purist when it comes to my photos, I like some of the effects.
I found a great meme - VEE'S NOTE CARD PARTY
You search for four photographs from your own blog that would make a nice set of note cards, and post them on your blog once a month. I thought it would be a fun place to share my altered photos.
Here's my choices, all from April of 2012

A Guest Post By My Granddaughter- Hollow Log
A guest post by my granddaughter.

My granddaughter and I went for a walk together by the river last week. I was searching for geese to shoot with my T2i, and she was a bit bored, so I handed her my little Canon PowerShot, (she was thrilled) I said "take pictures of anything you want". This is a click from her pics. When we got home, she viewed her captures on the computer, and decided this was the "best" one. She edited it in Photoshop herself, (she has watched me so many times). She loved the "texturizer". I think she did a great job!
The photographer...she is 8 years old.
She is saving up for her own camera. I told her I will match every 20 dollars she saves. I now owe her 40 bucks! She is a determined kid, I expect we will be going camera shopping very soon!

I took these pics on Saturday morning. We had a beautiful mild weekend, with temps near 50F. Today we are having a mini blizzard! It's not nice to fool us Mother Nature!
