Springtime waterfalls

Springtime in central Texas usually means rain, and rain means waterfalls.  We have both RIGHT NOW, and I am out with the camera chasing after them.  I captured these shots here in Austin just last week.  It felt to me like I was in some other state - maybe Oregon - with excellent streams and waterfalls, and nice comfortable temperatures.  So awesome!

All the rain in Austin

I've got waterfalls for you today!  As you have probably heard on the news (even nationally), Austin has been hit with a serious amount of rain and flooding lately.  While there have been tragic events due to the flooding, the silver lining is that we are getting our lakes filled back up and our creeks have water in them - both of which are badly needed.  Today I share a collection of pics from a recent outing here in Austin, when I went out to shoot some waterfalls!

Portland's Japanese Garden

This Japanese Garden in the heart of Portland, OR is absolutely gorgeous!  I spent some time there with a few friends a couple of years ago (yep, Jim's a little behind in processing my pics!) and boy did I ever come back with some winners!  Sadly, it's taken me over 2 years to get around to sharing them...but finally...here they are!  Hope you enjoy the view!

The San Antonio Riverwalk

Have you ever visited San Antonio, TX?  It's very beautiful, especially the Riverwalk area, and especially at sunrise when there are no tourists in the way.  Have a look...I think you will enjoy these.  Oh, and I toss out a 5 year old sunset photo too, since I had forgotten about it.  No time like the present!
