Happy New Year!

I’d like to wish all of my readers a Happy and Wonderful 2010! I”m going to be making some changes to my Friday links posts, starting this week. I’ve realized that as I’m spending the majority of my time photographing flowers, I’m discovering more and more wonderful resources on the web about flowers, gardening, environmental issues, and our National Parks and Wildlife Refuges. I’ve been sharing them on Twitter and Facebook, and will be adding some of them into my weekly links posts as well. I”ll still be sharing the photography links I find as well.  I hope you find the additional sections of links interesting and helpful
