These yucca don’t bloom like this every year – but when they do, they are just spectacular.

edge of winter

First of all – thanks to everyone for sticking with my 28 Faces project during February. When I made the commitment to myself to be a Serious Photographer, one of the things I promised was that I would never stop learning, never stop pushing myself. It took me a long time to become confident enough to photograph people and it has been an exhilarating experience. I’ll keep doing it, but for now – here’s some of the “normal” stuff. For a change.

My family call it “movie snow” – the kind that wafts gently down, huge white flakes landing lightly on everything. And then melts soon, before it gets icy and gray and annoying. We had such a movie snow toward the end of January: it snowed in the night and through the morning. By afternoon the weather system moved on and the melt began.

Two and a half flowers

Two white flowers, and one that’s already given up, are huddled together in the meager shade of the deck.
