NEW Photo of the Week #13

frozen stream

I thought I’d experiment with a few B/W photos.  However…since our frozen world around here doesn’t seem to have much more than a lot of white….this isn’t too far off the original!  Don’t get me wrong though!….I LOVE living where there are four distinct seasons and the VARIETY which that brings!  Although I have to admit, the older I get, the winters aren’t quite as welcome as they once were :o)  Have a good week everyone!

NEW Photo of my week #12

lamp post with aspens

As I left for my Sunday shoot this morning, I mentioned to my hubby that I hoped to get some good shots from the car!  So when I returned, he asked me if I had to get out of the car.  The answer was…..yes……once!  I love, loVE, LOVE these statues of children!  To  me, they express the joy that children are in our lives!  I thought it was interesting, since these two statues were in totally separate locations on my Sunday shooting drive this morning!  Best wishes for a great week ahead, everyone!

NEW Photo of my week #11

quail

Cute little quails, right?  Ha!  You know back in Photo of my week #8, where I wondered if I was turning into a whimpy photographer?  Well, it’s official!  I’m whimpy!  This is how I got this capture:  I looked out my window and saw these fellas…so I grabbed my camera, opened the front door (didn’t even step out onto the porch because it was soooo cold)….snapped the photo and promptly shut the door as quickly as possible!  Maybe come spring I’ll actually venture out and not be so whimpy!

NEW snowman ideas

It’s snowing!….Still!  :o)  We’ve had a few days of this white stuff, and I’ve noticed more than a few snowmen in my travels.  My wonderful neighbor, a man (I’m guessing in his late 60’s), was out building a snowman on Saturday with his grandchildren.  In prior years, I’ve seen him across the street building one all by himself!  He’s COOL like that! :o)  Then I saw a few really great snowmen ideas on my travels around the internet, so I thought I’d share.   How fun are these???
