Man vs. Nature - 11/52

These two little munchkins have been digging holes to China, so I thought it fit perfectly in the "Man vs. Nature" theme.  It's so enjoyable to watch them through my back window as they use their imagination and play in the yard for hours on end. 

Lazy - 7/52

It's Not Easy Being a Weed

They may be a nuisance and bring unwanted "stickers" into the house all stuck to your clothes and pets, but sometimes you just have to step back and realize....even a weed can have a pretty side.

This weeks theme is "Lazy" and I guess that would be me! lol...Not that I was too lazy to take some shots, I just didn't search out something that truly fit the theme.

Connections - 6/52

Connections

Although, it appears these two are about to make a connection, this is more about my connection to them and all of nature. I just can't get enough of watching and shooting them.

5/52 - Slow Down & Look Back

When we have little ones the time goes so quickly. It seems just yesterday he was born and now he's already a year old. It reminds me of not only when my girls were this age but when our other grandchildren where this age. They grow so fast and time slips away quickly. Maybe it doesn't seem like it as much as you are the parent going through it when they are toddlers! lol! But soon you are longing for those innocent days again.

4/52 - My Favorite Time of Day

"My favorite time of day"......is when I sit at my computer and can look out my back window to see the nature that passes through our yard.....with my camera ready.

3/52 - Sky

This was taken while doing one of my favorite things in the world....taking a road trip! My husband had a mission and we turned it into an opportunity to visit with and deliver some household goodies to our daughter who just moved into her new apartment in Georgia.

I just love to travel the roads and see the changes in landscape, the jewels and personality of the small towns and sometimes the gifts of special scenes that make you wish you had shutters on your eyes so you could capture the moment before it's gone. Of course, I have my cameras in my lap and ready for the challenge of capturing a scene while traveling down the interstate, resisting the urge to shout "STOP! Go back!" My greatest dream would be to have the opportunity to simply drive to nowhere in particular and be able to stop at any time when I spot a scene that captures my attention, be it nature, inanimate objects or people.

2/52 - A Letter of the Alphabet

This week's assignment was " A Letter of the Alphabet" and I wanted to do something outside of the box. At first I'd spotted an Elephant Ear and thought...hey! There's a "V". But when I turned around I noticed that our Staghorn Fern offered quite a variety of letters and "W" is the one I decided to choose.
