I beg your pardon…

…. I can’t wait til there’s a rose garden (in bloom again).
Happy Palm Sunday everyone.
Silver Blue, who reminds you to always make time to stop and smell the roses.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…

Sorry, readers, to have been away for so long. I’ve been so busy with my day job, and attempting to sneak in time for Photo Phridays, Snapshot Saturdays, and everything else that I’ve neglected the blog. So, for those who aren’t following me on Facebook, here’s a selection of photos taken at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg during their Christmas Town celebration:
Silver Blue, who hopes to be able to keep up with the blog more frequently now….
What time is it?
By Silver Blue
Ask the dandelion clock. What’s a dandelion clock?
A children’s amusement in which the number of puffs needed to blow the filamentous achenes from a dandelion is supposed to tell the time. ( http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dandelion_clock )
Silver Blue, who reminds you that when you ask the time of a dandelion clock, you must not be afraid of the answer. (paraphrased from Madeline L’Engle, A Swiftly Tilting Planet)
Plenty of new photos…
By Silver Blue
…sectioned off in Galleries for you to peruse and examine. You can find them at:

I’ve been so busy with life, photography, and trying to make a difference with the company that it seems like I’ve abandoned the blog, but I’ve not. I promise.
So….smile for a while and let’s be jolly…love shouldn’t be so melancholy… come along and share the good times while we can…
Silver Blue, who is looking forward to the change in the foliage… for it can only mean more photos on the horizon!
Little Things Mean A Lot
By Silver Blue
Thank you to everyone who has sent me kind words on the Silver Blue Photography site. Those little words of encouragement mean more than I could ever properly let you know. This rose is for you.
Silver Blue, who wonders where the weekend went.
Have A Ball!
By Silver Blue
I have to wonder if a toddler tossed this and it ended up by a flower bed; if a dog was chasing it, but called back before he could retrieve it; if a person was playing rebound off a garage wall and missed it with a racquet and because it was dusk, couldn’t find the ball to put it away for the night.
In any event, it made for an interesting shot in the morning light.
Silver Blue, who asks what in the world around you have you noticed that brings you joy?
Up in the sky…
By Silver Blue
It’s a bird… it’s a plane…. It’s SUPER MOON! No… silly… not this time. It’s the wind vane atop the Wren Building on the campus of the College of William and Mary:
LOVE the way this one turned out. It’s one of many that will be going up (eventually) to the SmugMug site.
Silver Blue, who needs a frosty bevvie in this heat!
There, on the horizon!
By Silver Blue
I can see it!
Well, maybe I can’t, but HE can. That’s John Wareing (1923-2000), Virginia Beach Police Officer, Trainer, and more. (He served in the US Navy and founded Wareing’s Gym in Virginia Beach.)
So, what can HE see, that I can’t? He can see the progress made on the official galleries, etc. He can see that photos are flowing up to the SmugMug site. He can see… lots of things.
I can’t wait to be able to make the post that allows you to, too. It’s coming! Soon!
Silver Blue, who is consumed with excitement!
Step by Step…
By Silver Blue
…bit by bit.
Just as roses don’t bloom all at once, it takes time to achieve one’s dreams.
With every step I take, I’m one step closer to my dream.
Silver Blue, who will be continuing to work on stuff once I’m home.
