Well, it was Bloggus Interruptus once again as my kids were with me this past week. Now that they are again with their mom, it is eerily quiet. I don’t know if that is good or bad.
Here’s some more snapshots from around the house; I hope one will brighten your day!
Masako and Spam Musubi 
Incredible shots!
Luck rears its head once again!
I disagree. It isn’t luck it’s pure talent. 🙂
really beautiful post – I like the words/descriptions you have given to them – and I also really love the first two – with the purple/maroon background…. so nice. 🙂
Why, thank you so much for the kind thoughts!
Ethereal! Kudos~
I learn more new words from you, Cindy!
wow!!! true beauties… domo arigato, Koji-san! my very best and respectful regards, Merani-san 🙂
That’s cute… “Merani-san”! Very Japanesey spelling indeed! 🙂
At least one of them did! Actually I enjoyed them all. But the first one is my favorite. 🙂
Thanks! Always too kind!
“Just some snapshots” with you is never really “Just” – they are always beautiful!
Aw, shucks, ma’am.
Do you shape trees, Koji-san?
Yes… with a rusty katana! 😉
Nice close ups. Did you use macro lens?
Yes, indeed. A used (and old) macro…
Ha! Bloggus Interruptus. Very funny, Koji. And I understand about that quiet after the kids leave — both good and bad. The quiet can be tough, but just look at the beauty your created in your silence. Awesome.
You are much too kind, Jan! And I loved your photo at the Beauty and the Beast and its accompanying story!
🙂 Thanks, Koji. I’m going to post my first Cee’s Photo Challenge today on Shadows.
Wow! These photos are beautiful! 🙂
I’m humbled. Thank you very much!
These are fabulous shots, Koji. Really wonderful. I hope the quiet isn’t too intense! I’m sure you really enjoyed having the children for their spring break. And I’m sure they enjoyed being with you, too!
Yes, it is quiet and yet, I’m not getting anything done of significance. The ex and I alternate having the kids so luckily, I had them for this past weekend. Their break started yesterday… And thank you for your compliment on the photos. They aren’t a colorful as yours, that’s for sure!
Stunning! These gave me great delight.
Thank you, Hilary. You are always so kind.
You really have captured the beauty of these flowers!
Thank you for stopping by and visiting!
These are so beautiful 🙂
Jeepers (from Dennis the Menace)! Thanks!
“Just snapshots”. An understatement if there ever was one..lol Those are outstanding!
Thanks, Kevin… But I do truly wish I knew more about photography. 🙂
You know more than I do. 😉
