Saturday was my birthday, and I spent it in New York city with my husband and kids. It was snowing, and the city was bustling. We went to the Whitney, and the Frick, and I took absolutely no pictures. ;)
So today, I thought I would share just a few of the many still life photos that I shot last year. I can't wait till spring, and I get to visit some gardens again. In the meantime, we are getting lots of exercise shoveling snow, and I have to enjoy my flowers indoors... :)

It sounds like a memorable birthday! Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Mary! Spending your birthday in NYC, visiting the museums sounds like a fun time. It is snowing again here, I am really tired of winter and wish it was over now. Lovely photos and post. Thanks for hosting, enjoy your week ahead!
ReplyDeleteA very Happy Birthday to you, Mary! Sounds like a fun day in the city. Your photos are beautiful. The last one of the vase with the gorgeous flower arrangement is stunning. I am more and more attracted to dark backgrounds lately, for some reason and here, in your image, it seems like the flowers are floating so lightly and elegantly just above the vase.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting and have a lovely week!

I hope you had a wonderful birthday weekend! You deserve it. Isn't it nice to go some place and not take photos? Weird…but there is a relief in that too. These photos are stunning…that light against the dark. These could be oil paintings! xo
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Mary. I am longing for spring too. Valerie
ReplyDeleteHello dear Mary
ReplyDeleteWishing you a very Happy Birthday - how wonderful to spend it in New York with your precious family!
What could be nicer than taking in the galleries - wonderful inspiration for you!
Your photos this week are so beautiful.
The vintage photo frame and simple dandelion sitting on The Works of British Poets.
I'm inspired to have a play with some composition now too!
Hugs

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! Beautiful photos and I remember taking several British Writers courses in college-

Happy Birthday, dear Mary ~
ReplyDeleteSo glad you got to spend it doing something wonderful. Those museums look excellent.
Happy Birthday Mary!
ReplyDeleteWent to New York and took no pictures! amazing I would say - but I can understand too. One doesn't always have to be a photographer. Sometimes I am at big family events and there are cameras everywhere, and I take no photos.
Stay warm, and I hope the sunshine returns soon.
Happy Birthday Mary! Gorgeous photos this week, I really enjoyed them! Hugs, Penny
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry - Nothing to contribute this week - still dealing with water damage. :(
Thanks for hosting and have a great week.
I had come across your blog last week when I was check out some of the Sunlit Sunday post and wanted to make sure I did a collage with my pictures this week so that I could link up. Love your pictures and Happy Birthday.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday weekend, Mary! Have a wonderful and happy, healthy year ahead!
ReplyDeleteIt was your birthday so you were allowed to enjoy it how you wanted and if that included not camera, hurray!!! Sometimes I get to caught up taking photos I forget to enjoy what is happening and the people around me. Hope you had an awesome time.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good time celebrating your birthday. Beautiful photos, as always.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Mary. I think a New York weekend would be the perfect way to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful birthday Mary and enjoy my dear home town NY. Many blessings for the new year of life and always.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the party, I'm finally here with a mosaic of my Little grandaughter who was 7 yesterday, she's an Acquarious too and hubby's birthday is tomorrow as well.
