It was a gorgeous frosty morning in beautiful Kuna, Idaho. I took my camera out and tried to capture some of the scenes around the neighborhood.

365 Project
So, as you all may remember, I failed miserably at my first attempt at 365 pictures in 365 days. But THIS is THE YEAR. 2010 – a year in pictures. I’m trying again and I think I’ll make it this time.
Some branches that we stole borrowed from someone else’s tree in town. And I’ve been playing with making some of my own textures again … lots of fun!

I took a walk this afternoon in Kathryn Albertson Park. KA has spectacular fall colors, and gorgeous summer flowers. I wasn’t sure what I would find to photograph so early in the spring before all the big, impressive blooms appear – but my walk turned into an interesting exploration of textures.
Take a look at this fuzzy thing … it’s sort-of like a poufy ball of cotton candy:
And then there were these dry, papery grasses:
And I saw lots of these red twigs- can’t wait to see these bushes in bloom:
See all the soggy, slimy grasses and branches in the water next to this crane?
When this park is in bloom, it is gorgeous. I would venture to say that it is one of the most-photographed areas of Boise. Every time I am there – even this afternoon- there are other people taking pictures. It is so easy to find photograph worthy subjects later in the year, but it pushes your creativity a bit when you visit a place like this in the off season – everything is dull, and dry and dead. You have to look closer and pay attention to texture and pattern to get interesting images. It was a good way to remind me to slow down and pay attention to the details.

Look, this morning I made delicious cinnamon rolls from scratch*. All warm and sweet and gooey:
*Ok, ok, so technically it was the dough boy who made them from “scratch”. But I totally popped that tube open all by myself and baked them.
