First snow of the year, my evergreen loves it!

My evergreen after the first measurable snow this year. But that's okay cause it's supposed to be 67 degrees today. If you don't like the weather in Kansas City, just stick around till tomorrow, it'll change.

Renaissance Festival in Bonner Springs, Kansas

I love the Renaissance Festival! There is lots to do and see. From the buildings to the costumes, to all the games, shows and activities, it really makes you feel like you stepped back in time. This guy is in the middle of the stage, balancing on the ladder (as in no support) while blowing fire out his mouth. A few minutes before this same guy put his whole body through a tennis racket.

Fisher Woman Fountain

This is my favorite fountain in Kansas City, located downtown on Main St. It has a big bottom part to it but I elected to crop it out to make a better photo.

Kansas City Fountain

This fountain was in an odd location- just inside of a parking garage. I couldn't get a good angle on it (because the garage was in the way!) so I took the best shot I could and then replaced the background with one of my own in Photoshop. I call her "Lady in Bronze".

Marigolds

This is a fountain in Kansas City. I honestly don't know how all the marigolds got in there. Perhaps people were using it for a wishing well and the marigolds were more abundant than coins. I fished out as many marigolds as I could, threw them all in at once and started shooting wildly before they moved swiftly away.

Kansas City Sunset

My love of photography has taken a back seat to my art lately, and that's ok. Sometimes it's the other way around. I really need a break from this cold blistery winter so I thought I would post some of my photos during the warmer months here in my hometown of Kansas City. Oh Spring, where the heck are you?
