Okay, so I cheated again. This is another Mr. Lovely Ray Ban self portrait. (Sutter Butte Hike) It really was THAT green. And don't I look skinny? Mr. Lovely's glasses are lovely!!

On my lunch break, I took a drive around St. Bernard Parish, which is just east of Orleans Parish. It is a little more rural and there are a lot of pecan groves, tractors and cows. This tractor and wooden gate just seemed ready to be photographed. I took this from inside my car, parked on the side of the road with my hazards on.

Another day full of flowers, but this gate caught my eye. Its rusty and green and there is a touch of yellow...and the background of yellow flowers and green grass just seemed to fit in right behind it. Natural vs unnatural...but it works.

This was a hard day to decide on a photo. I took a 5 hour hike in the Sutter Buttes. The spring colors were fantastic! The grasses were green, the oaks had new buds and there were lichens and mosses and flowers everywhere! And in all different colors! I don't know why but this dry flower caught my eye. See my number two choice here.

This is the only picture I took. My lucky turtle at work, also given to me by the same Aunt that gave me the wooden one. I am super lucky! (and my computer is a bit dusty!)
