In celebration of the bounty of spring flowers that one sees in abundance during the month of May, I dedicate this week to the beauty and glory of these May-flowers! Following on the heels of that pink crocus from my garden yesterday, here’s a proud daffodil on the campus of WSU today.
Category: Photo of the Day
Another personal project designed to capture and post one photo a day for the next 365 days. The photo may be the most ordinary to the most sublime. Whatever it might be, it is sure to be a slice of my day viewed by my eyes as worthy of capturing for posterity.

Rising gas prices: the bane of our existence. $4.39 and 9/10 of a cent?!!!

Poppies on campus. In commemoration of a beautiful Spring day, albeit a little windy. Also, in commemoration of a royal wedding across the Atlantic on a small island nation called Great Britain. May the newly-weds find and keep their love as brilliant as the hue of these glorious poppies!

A bust of Copernicus graces the grounds of the Detroit Public Library. Don’t miss the blooming forsythia on either side.
Wiki tells us this: Nicolaus Copernicus (19 February 1473 – 24 May 1543) was a Renaissance astronomer and the first person to formulate a comprehensive heliocentric cosmology which displaced the Earth from the center of the universe. Copernicus’ epochal book, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres), published just before his death in 1543, is often regarded as the starting point of modern astronomy and the defining epiphany that began the scientific revolution.

Open More Doors Starting This Summer— what a great exhortation! And for effect, what better place to put that message than on the outside of a set of elevator doors? Press the elevator button, and you will open doors– right now! (why wait for even the summer?!)

The sun will eclipse the brightest of street-lamps in the day, of course, but at night, I’ll bet these two lamps lined up on both sides of the street in the Tech Town area of the WSU campus in Midtown Detroit will offer more than ample light to pedestrians on the sidewalk. Note to LP: there’s your pole!
