Like forsythia and daffodil flowers, the rise of snowdrop flowers from the ground also signals the arrival of spring. I took these snowdrop pictures two days ago when I photographed weep cherry blossoms at Brookside Gardens.
Weeping Cherry Trees
While cherry blossom at Tidal Basin draws much attention in Washington DC areas, Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, Maryland do have lots of spring flowers to offer, especially several weeping cherry tree blossoms. It was a beautiful Easter Sunday yesterday and it drew a lots of […]
Morning Mist at the Lake
We are at Stonewall Resort, Roanoke, West Virginia joining our son’s family for a 4-day mini-vacation. I was surprised to see the morning mist (fog) in the lake from our lake side cabin yesterday. As I was ready to take pictures a row boat showed […]
Dramatic Sunset Sky
I took this picture with sun in my back during sunset two days ago in our community. The massive dark cloud and the bright houses shining by the soft sunset light really created dramatic contrast.
Signs of Spring
The first day of spring 2021 was last Saturday (March 20), I went to Brookside Gardens to check out the flowers this week. My favorite daffodil flowers were blooming beautifully. So are some early spring flowers such as hyacinths, camellia, etc.

Panoramic Images

Backyard Birds
I have a bird feeder on the deck. During this Corvid pandemic it gave me opportunities to shoot some birds visiting the feeder. Patience is the key to get some nice and sometimes cute pictures.
Snow at Monocacy Battlefield
After 5-6 inches of wet snow that stuck on the tree trunks and branches, it’s a good time to go out and shoot some photos. I drove to the nearby Monocacy National Battlefield, I walked along the snow-covered Gambrill Mill trail in the morning and […]
