I really enjoyed taking pictures of plants and animals this week. Yesterday, the winds reached 40 mph, and most of the tulips in my parents' yard were destroyed. When I woke up this morning, though, I saw a single surviving tulip outside my window. It was bent and covered in frozen droplets of water, but I tried to capture its unusual beauty in Shot 2. I am also especially fond of the Shot 4, which is of three robin's eggs that are in a tree outside my bedroom window. They survived the wind, and I think their color is stunning.

  1. I love your robin eggs! The color is so awesome against the color of the nest. These are all nice shots, but the iced tulip is also vintage Rexburg in the Spring! HaHa. I just hope the wind dies down soon. :) Nice work, Emily.
