I've found an interesting little Thursday activity that fits very well with my photo of the week plan. It's called 'A Thousand Words Thursday' and it's an activity put together by Jen at Cheaper than Therapy. I also found another blogger doing something similar over at I Should be Folding Laundry.
It's a great idea and I can't wait to play along.
I took this picture on a solo fishing outing...People float by these flowers everyday with nary a glance. We take things like this for granted. It's amazing how easy it is for adults to overlook the obvious when we have kids at home (newborns in my case) that have yet to see the beauty of the outdoors.
I can't wait to take my little girl for walks in the woods or canoe trips down the river to expose her to some of the simple things everyone else fails to see.

Great blog! I love parenthood from a father's perspective.
You are so right about people failing to notice the many beautiful things in our world. Your daughter will be lucky to have you to show her.
Great capture.

Those are gorgeous irises. It's nice when we can take a moment and just enjoy what is around us.
I've taken my son fishing a couple of times and I've never bothered to enjoy the flowers that grow along the shore. I'll have to do that on our next outing.
It's so easy to overlook the little and the big things in life. I love it when I remember to look up. The sky is so beautiful. It is peaceful. Same goes with the small things- like the flower. I look forward to the same- when my kids can enjoy the same. -Jason
