Ice decorates the holly... December 31, 2009...

Woke up during the night and heard 'plink plink plink' on the skylight over our bed... freezing rain turned into snow at some point and the yard had a dusting of light snow when I awoke. Managed to wake up early enough to grab a few shots of ice decorating the holly tree before it melted completely and rather like how this one came out.

Dogwood Project photo... berries for the birds come fall...

In late winter, I decided to take at least one photo a month of my dogwood tree... for awhile this spring, I was taking a photo a day as the blossoms gradually opened to full flower stage and then gave way to leaves emerging.

Other subjects have since captured my interest and it suddenly occurred to me today that my dogwood has been neglected... so here is the latest photo for your viewing pleasure. The entire set of Dogwood Project photos is available on Flickr.
