iPhone and a $20 lens attachment opens a world-- up close

Reading glasses are the one accessory that have come quickly and unexpectedly into my daily living. I'm not complaining, I'm actually grateful that anything can help me see better. My greatest joys in life are based on my ability to see. So when my husband sent me an article on Photojojo lens attachments for the iPhone, I didn't skip a beat --- I went to amazon and a day later my iPhone had reading glasses! The macro lens is addictive. This little piece of glass which is magnetically held over my iPhone lens sees detail that I miss --- and when I look at the photos, I get a rush --- call it love. The world is truly a spectacular place to see. 

OK, the above series of photos were taken this past summer. Ahhh, how we long for brilliant color and sweet scents... Seeing how we may be climbing out of the drifts of what was one of our snowiest winters ever, I must single out a few flakes from the billions that buried us for months. Again, you are looking at images taken with my phone with that little $20 magnetic macro lens. It was exhilarating shooting these (sure beat shoveling:)!
