You are creating and influencing the world around you at every moment so take a deep breath, smile and shine light into your sphere of influence.

I love lilacs. Growing up there were two huge lilac bushes outside my window and I used to love the scent just wafting into my bedroom. I need to remedy the fact that I no longer have any blooming lilacs in my yard! This beauty was shot at Yale Marsh Garden.<br />

So you've wandered the web and found my little place in the ether. My Midlife Creativities was a creative endeavor from long ago. Sadly, many of the links to my photos broke when I changed our Flikr settings to private after a creepy encounter on that site. I didn't realize the ramifications for this one. In any event, each year I have to decide whether to renew the domain name and keep this place here, or just let it go... For now, feel free to browse around and check out some of the photos from my years of 365 photo projects. <br />
