Lilacs

The lilacs were cut from the yard -- the photo shot in my spare room and edited in iPhoto.  I'm still having fun with my camera.  Keep watching for more photos.


Once the sun came out on Saturday I planted more things in my garden.  Things are coming along nicely and soon I can show off the little tiny plants.


Charlie and I went hunting for asparagus this weekend as well.  We found three large stalks right away, then ALL of the rest that we found had already branched out and were too far along.  I can't wait to own my own property and plant my own asparagus.  I'm also going to attempt a mushroom patch at said property.  We don't have much luck looking for morels.  Luckily, a friend from work had terrific luck this weekend and told me she would bring in a bag of white morels for me!  I'm excited!  I must find a good recipe to use them in...
oh, but anyway -- I will post a couple of pictures of what to look for when hunting for asparagus because I promised Amy that I would write about it.  Give me a couple of days though as it is getting late tonight.


p.s. does anyone out there have a watermark program they would like to recommend?  I'd like to put a digital watermark on some of my images so I can show them to people but not have to worry about someone stealing them.  If I can't figure that out, I'll just have to lower the quality of the photos I post so they can't be printed.

I lover the photo. It is very beautiful! I usually use photoshop to add text to the photo for a copyright. You can create an action to do it with everytime and that makes it pretty quick.

Thanks for sharing your photos, can't wait to see some more!
