As I pen [a metaphor] this, several important entries are in process [a term I learned from Mama, often used in academia for dubious purposes]. However, springtime's in the air in Athens, GA, with highs in the upper 70s & plenty of pollen and bugs to suit nobody's taste.
Thus I explain my yearning to conquer [figure of speech?] expression through the graphic arts. First up: photography.
Here's Mama in my first attempt at portraiture.
How patient she is, what an even temper she possesses! For she allowed me to: [1] use her digital camera, [2] publish this, my first photo ever.
I like to think of this entry as an Ode to Springtime, that season of new beginnings.
And the shot of me [above & self-shot] as paean to the Persian new year, 1386.

I'm glad to learn that you have taken up digital photography.
Your first effort is impressive; some might say you have already overtaken your mentor.
However: why does the ancient Persian civilization mark a year that's so early, if you see what I mean.
Oh, I forgot to thank your Mama for recording my thoughts [see comment above]. Your loving Grandpere.
