Where's Spring ?

Despite the incredibly terrible winter we had and the slow start of spring. Things are getting better. The daffodils are up and the tulips aren't far behind.

Portrait of a Fly

I got lucky today. Some insects are starting to emerge with the warmer weather. I captured this common house fly with a Canon Powershot sx 50 hs with a Raynox 250 filter. I am happy with this first attempt on an insect but I plan on getting better.

Upper Rapids of Niagara Falls

I turned sixty one today.I celebrated with a seventeen mile bicycle ride. On the way I stopped to catch this photo of the upper rapids.
