blue, I'm so blue...


The movie room really put the Vacation in Vacation Bible School. I made a bunch of pop bottle fish, and one of the other ladies made the room a blue sea of tranquility. It was amazing. All we needed was a cozy chair or hammock to nap in.

mousers


Mousing is serious business for a farm kitty, even if the mouse is only wool.

not a cemetery...

I pass this on a regular basis and for a long time I thought it was the worlds smallest cemetery. In reality it marks the original site of a local church.

The Wells Fargo Wagon is a coming



They hitched up in the church parking lot, We hung around and visited with one of the geldings on the team, and one of the grooms, then we hung around for longer and shot a few pictures while they got dresses for work.

macro filter difference

It was terribly late and dark when I was playing, but the difference in these is with and with out two +4 filters stacked in front of my lens. I was playing with topaz adjust because the quality, due to the light was so poor, I could not ruin them. I like the grainy B/W, for these. I think It definitely has it's place.

grass

Another weed, when these get to the end of their life they drop off much of the top of the plant and what is left is a a starburst on a stem.

boom, bang, boom




I did not remember to bring the tripod with, so I hand held the camera, I got some nice shots, But nothing with the trails you can get with a longer shutter speed. I still took way too many.

there is something growing in broken-hearted tree...

I have always found sprouts in odd places to be fairly fascinating.

grounded


I dont know if the weight pulled the stem down or if the dogs or cats knocked them over but two of the lilies were on the ground. The looked cool that way but the photo just doesn't capture it.
