shadow shot

this morning on Big Mountain

wide open space

looking through my photos

not a lot of images with negative space

something for me to work on

gotta love his goofy high-tops

jump

Tell an 8 year old to jump...and you catch her fancy toenails!

Tell an 11 year old and his friend to jump...and they'll tell you they're busy catching salamanders!

Tell an "almost 13" year old to jump...and he'll do it his way!

repetition

morning light, that's all

...taken this morning while walking to the store

I hate feeling self-conscious about carrying my camera.

Look what I would have missed.

trying to capture movement

I couldn't believe today's prompt at Picture Summer...

wind and movement

Don't they know that yesterday and the day before were incredibly windy here!

...and today, nothing.

Thank goodness my daughter brought home feathers from art class!
Just perfect!

delicious

I just have to say that we're having the most delicious cherries that I've ever had!

Don't even know where they're coming from.

They're just delicious...

Bathing Fred

a rare moment of cooperation

curves

"she" was waiting for me to notice her

bathed in sunlight

as I made my morning coffee

her curves "saturated"

collection

I'm not a collector, but I don't know what I'd do without my "collection" of brightly colored yellow pins for sewing

yesterday's rain

yesterday's rain~

today it was all about the sunshine!

Sunset over the lake

Thanks to the smoke from the fireworks,

it was THE most amazing sunset over Whitefish Lake.

Happy 4th of July!

Centering

The exercise for today ~ centering your subject

This exercise makes me realize that I center a lot of subjects...

maybe too many.

Boys just want to have fun

My two boys...

not surprising who tricked the other into going first!

Summer isn't summer without....a few dandelions!
