Dailies
These images are ones shot to post in the daily community on smugmug. I've been participating in this community for about six years. For the first few years, I tried to always post a shot taken either that day or the day before. Now, although I try to shoot everyday, I don't necessarily post the images on the same day they are shot.

Well past its prime tulip; really better in the larger sizes.
Thanks for all the comments on my shot of the red and white parrot tulips. Ed and Blink answered the riddle correctly: "Love is blind." Maryann had another interpretation, which was quite good, too.
Here is another challenge for you: "Persons deficient in the faculty of determining values move with impetuosity into places which pures spiritual beings view with trepidation."
I have a portrait shoot today with an older woman, one about my age. Should be interesting. Hope your week is going well!

I think you're looking for "Fools rush in where wise men fail to take pictures." =-)
