‘Archi-texture” I am not sure that I hit today’s prompt of “luminosity” with this prompt though that is what I was hoping for. This was taken on a busy corner not far from our house where there are many office buildings. They are all different colors and textures and several of them are mirrored. When the light is right, this location makes for some kind of cool shots. The evening light was a little strange tonight. The “golden hour” did…
“Angel in the Grass” Though I try to keep my chin up and stay positive, every now and then looking down reveals a surprise.
‘Standing Together” After an unstructured afternoon, we enjoyed a short arm walk through the park this evening before dinner. The cool (for Texas in July) temperatures of the last few days are gone but it was still nice to get out and enjoy some fresh air. We discovered a new picnic spot to try once it is not so hot outside.
“Under the Bridge at Night” This is day one of my “Phone Period.” I am trying to remain positive, but it is really difficult!
“Make the Grade” I have to say that this photo was not taken today, but back at the end of June when we were in Delaware visiting my dad. Rarely do I use archived photos for my POTD. I did so today for two reasons: First of all, I am suffering from separation anxiety because I had to send my DSLR back to Nikon as the result of a recall – extraneous dust particles showing on images due to a…
“Sweet Snack” I have developed a terrible nighttime sweet tooth. Tonight I tried to appease it with a tasty peach, but the chocolate, oatmeal, and ground almond cookies were also calling my name. I put them both on the plate and realized that, with a little imagination, they looked like a sunflower. I snapped a photo. Then I ate it all.
“Not Leaving On A Jet Plane” I am a firm believer in bloom where you are planted, even if that means that you are expected to grow and bloom in conditions that are less than ideal. This philosophy made our travels home from San Diego quite pleasurable when others might have been seriously frustrated and angry. We left San Diego Monday afternoon on a 4:15 flight to Dallas with a connection in Phoenix. The first leg of our journey, San…
“Unpacking NOAH” This photo is more appropriate to this blog post than it is to the photo prompt “red,” but it will have to do double duty here if I am to have any chance of catching up with posts and photos! Traveling to the NOAH (National Organization for Albinism and Hypo-pigmentation) conference was an awesome adventure all the way around. We spent lots of time enjoying food, fun, information and time with friends both old and new. Many of us have…
“Airport Fountain” I am way out of sorts as a result of our trip to San Diego. I am still catching up on photos and have taken them out of order. It feels strange to be behind, but that is the way of it. We have had quite the adventure over the past two days trying to get home. Though we are tired, it was all good. More on that later. This photo is for the prompt from last Sunday….
“Sacred Center” I have walked by this plant, whose name I do not know, several time a day for nearly a week. To me, there is something beautifully fascinating about the sacred spiral that is the blueprint that creates the layers of petals. I have also come to realize that I have a love of natural monochromatic images. I love the gradient green tones in this. The spiral in combination with the greens, to me, make this image cry…
