Photography Now & Then #92
Our Azaleas are approaching peak blossom time – and cold weather is forecast, with the potential for freezing temperatures April 3rd and 4th (Tuesday and Wednesday) nights after a very warm Tuesday.
Now: Azalea blossoms before a freeze? West-central Arkansas, April 2, 2018 (Apple iPhone 6s)
This pink azalea started out as a gift miniature 30 years. Planted outside, it stayed small for many years, then started getting larger until it is the same size as the others.

We’ve seen signs warning of rattlesnakes in quite a few places. We watch for them, but rarely see them. However, we have seen a few, including one in a place in South Dakota where a parent was being less than attentive on a trail – “Mommy! Look at me!”.

Photography Now & Then Notes:
- Series Photos
- The Now photo is one that is almost always taken the day of the blog post. In some instances, posts may be backdated if internet access is not available on the day of the photo or other reasons prevent posting Photography Now and Then.
- The Then photo is usually a randomly selected older photograph from a batch of photos specifically “curated” for Photography Now and Then.
- Each photo in this series is an “original work” – a copyright term – of Michael Goad.
- Reference links were accessed on the date the blog post was published, unless otherwise stated.
- The title convention for Photography Now & Then blog posts evolved early on from one word related to each photo separated by “&” to usually being the first word in the caption description for each photo.
