Yesterday's mail brought me the calendar that I won in Lily Hydrangea's give-away. Twelve beautiful examples of her photographic talent! If you haven't seen it yet, go to Long Island Daily Photo to have a look.

I lived on Long Island for twenty-one years, which is what first attracted me to this blog. When I discovered that she was from Farmingdale, which is near to my old home in Massapequa Park, I was hooked. Her photos are almost all scenes from places very familiar to me. They are full of color and humor and beauty.
Thank you so much, Diane! I will enjoy it every day of 2010, I know.
