When the snow begins to melt in late winter, a calm brook becomes a raucous waterfall.

I’m trying a new thing. Clicking on the image will take you to a larger view in my DA gallery. Lemme know if anyone has problems!

A pink lily next to a concrete wall. The original shot was so dull I almost deleted it…. but I’m pretty happy with it now.

Just like the economy. But this one has a nice purple dot at the center.

Or possibly, Exploding Greenery.

Holy shit, I’m getting feedback on DA. From people who don’t *know* me. It’s… nice, but also strange. And hey, I’ve had random strangers love my stuff before…. but it’s always a little disconcerting. (This would be the shy part of me, as opposed to the anti-social part.)

Oh, and it occurs to me that I should actually post a link to the gallery: http://julie-karasik.deviantart.com/

One of the very few animal portraits I’ve done. (though I want to do my cats at some point.)

Starting today, I’ll be cross posting the daily pictures to my Deviant Art account. (tiny baby steps towards self-promotion….)

Actually, it’s Sunrise mountain, heading toward the top lookout. But that line always made me think of this one spot.

It’s a humble flower, but so far as I’m concerned, not a weed.
