Rest Stop

This gray bench against the bright Mexican sunflowers makes for a nice resting spot at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens.

I will be teaching From Snapshots to Creative Photographs at Vestavia Hills United Methodist Church's Conservatory of the Arts. Classes are from 6-8 p.m. and start Thursday September 10th for 5 weeks. You can sign up online!

Under the Red Umbrella

Here in the Deep South, autumn takes its sweet time getting here. We like it that way. Yesterday I sat under the Adams' red umbrella in the still warm October sun and admired their gorgeous garden. The Mexican sunflowers are glorious right now. They will die out soon and make way for the  autumn leaves to put on their show.  Everything has its own season.

Happy Fall Ya'll, Part I

Stay tuned for more in this series when fall actually arrives in the Magic City.
