Oh my sweetums, today I wandered in the garden. It was beautiful! Gorgeous! Came pretty close to being spectacular! The plants are poppin’. The temperature was perfect. And there were bunnies EVERYWHERE. Easter Jackrabbits en masse, reminding me again why it’s not a good idea to plant a vegetable garden.

Ever the multi-tasker, I had the phone with me and chatted with the kids while I was outside. Remember the days when phones were tethered to the wall, when you ALWAYS knew where it was? And when it wasn’t a camera?

Well, since I had my phone-which-is-a-camera with me, I not only noticed how the sun did magic things in the garden, I was able to snap a few shots.

And since I’m a painter I decided to throw them into a painting app and art them up a bit. Here they are:

Nothing says SPRING to me like a Dogwood in bloom. Nothing.

Except maybe Lilacs. I loves me my Lilacs.

This is my exhale spot, one of my favorite places in the garden.

What’s your favorite photo app? I’m always open to playing with something new. Tell us about it in the comments below.
