Random scenes from a weekend, part 3... The Finale

It had rained the night before and when we woke up the fog had rolled back in again. That wasn’t going to stop the diehard fisher-people. They were out in their ghost boats looking like they were sailing on clouds instead of water.

The long weekend was ending and the day was beautiful. It is always sad to have to head home. A few more images of all the little things that made me smile and then that long car ride. We passed the Chatterbox! Yeah! And the show car was purple! They must have known I was coming. May 30th

Random scenes from a weekend, part 2...

It was the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend, it only seemed fitting to include a flag and this was such a beautiful setting. It watched over us as we offered prayers of thanks and safety for the men and women who give so much so that we can be free.

Nature is pretty amazing. I know the flowers again but even the weeds are lovely. Poor gnome, somebody knocked his block off. May 29th

Random scenes from a weekend, part 1...

The quandary: focus on one thing and record it at all angles from all vantage points throughout the day or have fun and point my camera at whatever made me happy. The former sounded like a grand plan but the later sounded like a grand time! PS… I thought it was one bug! Now I feel like I intruded on Mother Nature but that iridescent green color was so gorgeous! May 28th

Altered art...

OK, they can’t all be prizewinners! It was late and I was tired and we were on our way out of town. I saw this pot of flowers and loved how the night lights were dancing off the petals. Did I tell you it was late? Did I mention I was tired? Oh, and the ‘good’ camera was in the car… which I could see but if I walked to it, I wasn’t walking back. So I used the point and shoot camera in my handbag, sure it wouldn’t be that bad… It isn’t horrible… It also isn’t what I saw. The focus is off and the lighting is all wrong but the colors are nice.  If you can't say something nice... Since I can’t show you my vision I thought I would play a little. I am posting the original (blah) and the fun version. I kinda like the finished product. What do you think? A little 'sketchy', right?  :-)  May 27th

Weathered beauty...

I took this after a photo session. I loved the way the white flowers looked against the weathered wood. May 26

Busted...

I don’t know why, I just loved the look of this. Someday I will tell you about my photos of trashcans. Actually, maybe I will recreate them! May 25th

Tye dyed love...

His name is Ty and he is a gift from my nine-year-old partner in crime. Ty was won in one of those claw machines a few years ago and presented to me with much love and giggles. He has been with me ever since. He guards the car so beware of the attack rabbit! May 24th
