day 449 - tulips in black and white

now that we have coloured photos, why do we still want to take them in black and white, especially when the subject are flowers? a case of nostalgia, maybe? nope! i just wanted to see what my new canon can do for me, 'tis all.

day 448 - st. isidore revisited

a beautiful albeit a tad cooler spring day today. i went with the family to church but there was a lot of distractions inside so i went outside with my camera. this churchgrounds never fail to amaze me. the grass is so lush and the gardens are teeming with flowers and it pains me that i won't see them in full bloom in a few days. in any case, i really wanted to take again a photograph of this statue by the cemetery entrance using my new canon. see day 106 for my shot of the same statue last year.
