180/365 - New Growth

I'll admit it - I wasn't finding anything "inspiring" to photograph today. The continuation of the hot, humid, stay inside in the A/C because it feels like a sauna outside has made me a little cranky, even for a Friday.

All of the heat, copious rain and sun has resulted in the maturation of many plants, with summer flowers now coming into bloom. It's hard to remember those fragile little buds of spring, the promise of new growth - but that new growth can still be found if you look for it (or in my case, if you happen to walk by the maple tree in the backyard because you are bored).


Still some baby leaves, waiting to grow bigger. Just the little bit of inspiration I needed today.
