Weekly Photo Challenge: Spring
Weekly Photo Challenge These three photos all scream “Spring” to me. From the unbridled enthusiasm of my grandson, racing to find the most hidden Easter Eggs, to the lovely simplicity of a Lily of The Valley on an outdoor cafe table, on the… Continue Reading “Weekly Photo Challenge: Spring”
Weekly Photo Challenge: Letters
This series of photographs is posted in response to the prompt “letters“. Upon first glance, these two photos, are a welcome banner and a logo on a cap. For me, though, when I look at these photos, I am instantly transported to the mountains… Continue Reading “Weekly Photo Challenge: Letters”
Weekly Photo Challenge: On Top
My entry(a little late, this week) for The Weekly Photo Challenge:On Top.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Threshold
The trail leading to the cliffside path that rims glacier lake in the heart of the Mohonk Preserve beckons in a tantalizing, yet ominous, way. The signpost stands as a beacon, warning of the danger (and promise) that lay in store. I know that… Continue Reading “Weekly Photo Challenge: Threshold”

The beautiful, nearly fully opened hibiscus blossom had fallen during a rain storm, landing atop a trash receptacle, in a rain puddle. Which proves… Continue Reading “Weekly Photo Challenge: One Shot, Two Ways”
