Final Four

Today Kentucky meets Michigan for a spot in the final four at four. We await the remnant of family to come over for Sunday dinner. Melanie and I stayed home from church today. Melanie is especially flagging and so am I. I went over and got mamma from Paula's and so we wait, she reading the beloved paper and snoozing. Melanie has everything ready. On the trip back with mamma I stopped at Hill's field to see if the lavender in the field could be captured. I decided I would have to move further down to the right of the frame in order to capture it better. I then took a quick shot of the phlox starting to fill the ditches. In the backyard, after gathering three eggs, I tried to coax the chickens over for a shot, but they wouldn't comply, staying in the upper right of the frame.
The sky as you can see is a good blue and the wind is blowing the pond off the back yard. Saturation.
Again, I am in my posting funk, as usual in consternation over the lack of likes and comments.
I am liking, yet at the same time lamenting the beauty of photographers John Spohrer, Clyde Butcher, David Moynahan, Paul Marcellini and Carlton Wards photographs and the many shares and comments.
I told Melanie, they are light years above me. She disagreed. But then, I gave up on Kentucky to beat Lousville and she didn't. Oh for her positive outlook on life!!!! I could be a contender....
