flowers and raindrops

The male platty finally cooperated with me!

Christy's fish

Trying to get clear shots of Christy's fish was a challenge! The blue gourami can be fairly aggressive, and can often be observed giving the other fish little nips.
The black-nosed one is a female platty; she's braver than her mate about posing for the camera. "Pom Pom", the pearl goldfish, looks like he swallowed a golfball. He may not be the most graceful swimmer, but he's always the first one to the top when it's feeding time!

lilies

After a weekend of rain, I finally had a chance to capture images of my huge Asiatic lilies.

columbines & coralbells

Little "elf" hats dancing in the wind.
