It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

The Blossom That Started it All
So this is the blossom that started it all. I spied it on the windowsill from the living room and decided to photograph it. I started with this photograph which can be considered "the thing for what it is." It looks like an Easter Lilly blossom. As you have already seen in previous posts, I then moved in and photographed it for whatever else it could be, choosing views that were much more abstract. This is not as dramatic as the abstract views, but is sure is beautiful, isn't it?
It sure is. Last Easter, we planted ours in a pot outside after it bloomed, and a few months later, 3 new shoots had spouted, which then bloomed. There are now 4 MORE new shoots in the same pot that should grow and bloom in about 1 month or two. It's quite a plant, I had no idea.
