We have never seen so much water in our little creek. Of course we’ve only been here a year and last year at this time we were still cleaning it out. And still are.
I love it 🥰

We're back! That was scary not being able to get in this morning! To celebrate how about a Throw Back Thursday!

By Eye On the fullest moon, over any expanse of open water, it’s best to measure the earth’s curve by eye. When the moon first rises on the horizon the immense curve cannot be denied. Then as night declines, the shadow of the sky holds easily against the shadow of the earth. The chameleon colors of water become foolish in the light of day, it imagines itself to be both water the body, and water the sky.

Warm spring day at the Idaho Botanical Gardens. The image depicts a serene corner of the Garden in Boise with a stone gazebo, bench and a tree
Wife & I escaped work for a couple hours this morning for a long photo walk around the #Idaho Botanical #Garden
I think we both shot a couple rolls of 35mm film and I shot some medium format as well. Will develop later tonight.
I only took 2 phone pics, here’s one.
