No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow. ~Proverb
Spring brings new beginnings and fresh starts.
The outpatient therapy section of the hospital is next to a geriatric care center, and between the two facilities there is a lovely little garden designed for the geriatric patients and staff.
I have always loved photography and I was even attending college studying website development and graphic design before I got sick. In the past few weeks I have found myself taking the camera to my appointments and wandering into the garden to take pictures. I find myself setting the cane down, and forgetting all about it and my limitations. I am crouching on the ground, climbing around objects and getting a real workout while trying to take a few pictures. It is my own private garden version of occupational and physiotherapy while I wait for my official hospital appointments. I am thinking about making a set of note cards or a photo-book to give to the geriatric center.
I am ready to start creating again.

Thank-you Grace.
Linda, the card idea sounds best to me but the photo book isn't a bad idea. You have some real talent in this field. And your passion for it is taking you beyond your 'limits'. I hope you're thinking about pursuing this a little further.
Stunning!
These pictures are so moving to a gardener like me.
Hi Linda .. thanks for following my blog .. good to be here .. and I hope you continue to get therapeutic exercise taking wonderful pictures such as these ..
Cheers and have a happy weekend ..Hilary
Thank-you everyone. I really do love taking this kind of picture!
Hilary it was nice to see your blog and I am glad to "meet" you.
Beautiful. It is amazing how when I'm doing something I'm absorbed in, I forget all about my discomforts. I like to shoot animals/people with a telephoto and I've been worried about not being able to control the camera with only one hand.
Spring-the awesome season makes all happy. Its very interesting therapy you been developed. I am looking forward about using it.
