Wanted ya to know that I’m still alive — just busy busy! Getting ready for the big May splash on the Hero website, and then things should settle back down to “normal” — whatever that is.
Thought I’d share some photos from the weekend before last — I took ’em on a prairie field trip to Meador Meadow that Jason organized up near Oklahoma.
These are called “shooting stars” — lovely name, and a flower that is getting rarer all the time. The wind was blowing like crazy that day, so I took a gazillion pictures to get a few good ones. So glad to have a digital camera.
Springtime in Texas is wildflower time, and that means we visit prairies all over the state. This weekend Jason and I are leading a field trip to Simpson Prairie — it’s closer to Austin than Meador Meadow, so come join the fun! Especially if you’ve never seen a prairie and you’re in central Texas.
More soon, promise!
In the meantime, have you seen the video on the Hero Arts blog today?
wow… so pretty!
Beautiful! These flowers remind me of the Cyclaam we have here in Europe, but I don’t believe it’s the same flower.
Thanks Godelieve! They ARE actually replated to the Cyclamm! :)
Great shots! Can’t wait to see more.
Lisa, that picture of the flower is so beautiful. I have a mini-obsession with taking pictures of flowers… so I have a deep appreciation for good pictures of flowers – and yours is especially impressive considering the wind!
Thanks for sharing :)
