One of my favorite times of year for photography work is upon me, and after doing some work in my backyard to prepare for a garden, I had to pick up the camera again and enjoy the cool crisp breeze on this Saturday afternoon and let nature reveal herself to me.
Once upon a lifetime ago on myOtaku, I posted some photos of a crabapple tree in my yard, of course at the time the fruit was ripe and red on the branches. That same tree is in full bloom right now, the flowers a beautiful mix in shades of pink. Something tells me this is going to be a good photography year for me. But you don't have to take my word for it, just check out the photo and see for yourself. I like the wan the shot came out myself, got some others of the same tree, and some other wild flowers in my yard that look nice as well.
Expect to see some new additions to my DeviantArt portfolio in the next few days. I got a couple real gems that I want to share so that's where I'll put them, since that's my place for photography stuff.
I have to go on about the new "Red" color scheme that's over on theOtaku.com now. I fell in love with it the moment I saw it, it reminded me so much of those Starlight mints, the round ones with the red swirls all the way through. Being the crazy dragon that I am, I put a Starlight mint up as the BG image after setting up that theme as my main World theme. Up till "Red" came along, I didn't really like any of the color schemes, I was using the closest ones to what I was comfortable with. This one goes against my typical dark colors or green, but I never could resist a good sweet Starlight mint. I think there are two more as yet undisclosed color schemes coming, I'm curious to see what they are and if I'll like them. So, I'll warn you now, don't go to my main World if you're craving sweets, the alluring spiral of the starlight mint might just hypnotize you. Or at least make your craving ten times worse.
Not much else to cover today, hope I can get some more nice photos in the coming week.
Comments
Everyone:
I did read the comments from April 1 even though I'm being lazy and not answering them all individually like I should. Thanks for the clarification on the April Fool's Joke, I didn't check the calendar to realize that was the issue. As for adding me to messengers and on the sites, just let me know who you are so I don't go thinking you're a spam-bot trying to get me and there shouldn't be any problem. My MSN messenger is out of date and I can't upgrade to the newest one (it won't install on XP Service Pack 1 so it says), so chances are that's the one you'll have the most issues with in terms of it now always working. I will have my online messenger schedule up here soon.

We've been working on that problem and it's not a big problem, it's a humongous problem. Hopefully the notes I have will help in the solution process, but only time will tell.
I'll certainly try to have more material up.

Nice weather means the camera will be out a lot, so I'll definitely be enjoying myself now and then, and little breaks in nature are the best medicine to ease troubled minds.

I saw your post about that, hope things work out for you all right, that length of time woudl drive me insane to not be online.
Nah, I'd have mellowed out on my own eventually, I got a little help from mother Nature today as you can see from the picture up there.
