Delicious Light

     Gorgeous, brilliant, warm sunshine mixed with blue skies, blue eyes, and a winning smile and that equals one happy photographer!

I awoke this morning to delicious light streaming into my kitchen windows, bathing the tiles on the floor in a glow that resembled the color of honey in a hive.  One of my dogs was already outside, warming himself on the wood deck, while my younger pup lay basking in those streaming rays of sunlight that flooded into the room.  Not a sound could be heard, except a distant bark from the neighbor's dog.  My dogs barely lift their heads, not a warning bark I guess.

I headed out into the yard  with my recently purchased cloth buntings from Giggleberry Creations in hand.  I spent breakfast gazing through the kitchen window, wondering where I could string these little darlings.  I found just the right two branches for their debut.  Now for a subject!  It was only 9:30 a.m., and I knew my hours would pass slowly by until my teenage daughter would be awake.  First day of spring break would keep her under the warmth of her comforter until close to noon.  No worries, buntings all by themselves are fun to shoot too!  The trees are still bare and the grass is still wearing it's dry, winter coat but the blue spruce is covered with new growth.  A sure sign that spring is very close.  After a few shots, I heard the pitter patter of teenage feet on the kitchen floor.  Fortunately for me, it doesn't take much for me to convince my daughters to model for me, in fact, all I have to do is mention a model shoot and they are off choosing fun clothing combinations. 

     A few moments later, we were out back outside and geared up for some fun poses, the warm sunshine kissing our cheeks and noses, and the wind running through our hair.  What a perfect Colorado day for being outside with camera in hand.  There's nothing like waking up to a gorgeous, sunny warm day, filled with crystal blue skies and birds singing in trees.
