Howdy!

Welcome to my summer blog! I am home in Texas for the summer after successfully completing my first year of college. There is lots to see, do and learn here in Texas. I hope you can discover a thing or two about Texas and get to know me a little bit as you read through these entries and look through my photography.

Meet the Bluebonnet

"The bluebonnet, a name common to several North American species of Lupinus, is the state flower of Texas. They typically grow about 0.3 m (1 ft) tall. The name may come from the shape of the petals of the flower and their resemblance to the bonnets worn by pioneer women to shield themselves from the sun."

From college I flew home to Texas where the first thing I did was admire all the wildflowers on the drive home with my folks.
It wasn't long however till my camera and I were out snapping pictures of the Bluebonnets in the neighborhood.
Day #1: Home.
Day #2: Out with my camera.
Photography is something that I very much so love to do, and the next day after I came home, I was already out with my camera taking these and other pictures of the Bluebonnets.
More pictures to come.
