Beast On The Loose



This dino-monster has been part of my family for a long time. Today he was out in the yard making the dogs crazy. I thought he made for a good shot. Notice how his eyes match the leaves!

Smoke


 I always wanted to know how people make good black and white smoke photos and I was stuck at home today with pink eye, so I experimented. A lot. This is what I came up with.
I like it.

86 Days To Go

            I've come a long way on this photo project.  Feels like I have what it takes!

Glow


The sun was out for 5 minutes today and the tree in my front yard was a spectacular show of bright yellow. Since everyone is talking about our first possible snow of the season overnight, I thought this may be a fitting final glimpse of color.

Please let everyone be wrong.

No Wine This Year


In the Spring I posted a photo of the grapevine and tiny green grapes that were growing in my back yard. I had great expectations that they would get big, purple, and juicy. They did, just way too late in the year. By the time they looked like this, the birds had eaten most of them and the others got a bit of frost. They are pretty, but wine would have been nice......

Cake


I stayed home all day today doing household projects and didn't even think about a photo until a minute ago. This cake is on my kitchen counter and it was a willing subject.
