WordPress Photo Challenge: Grid
Evening in an office building near old town Montreal.
Surrounded by structures built in the 1800s this window stood out one evening.
You can see many other interpretations at the original post. Or check out a few of my favorites (so far anyway) here, here and here.
And don’t miss this one, it’s a little different!
You have until next Friday to show us the grids near and dear to your heart. I’d love to see what you come up with!

WordPress Photo Challenge: Monochromatic
We are traveling, so I’m taking lots (husband says hundreds and he is right) of photos. I’m going to pick out a few from our first three days to show you monochromatic on vacation.
The first one is from our visit to Fort Niagara on the American side of the river.
Window with basket.
The second is from our visit to Niagara Falls.
Boat in mist.
And the third is from a marvelous spot in Ontario Canada called The Big Apple Pie Factory.
Green in red.
I knew about the challenge when we visited the apple pie store, so I took that last one on purpose. Even rearranged the apples in the barrel to my liking while no one was looking. I took full advantage of the permission granted to use a splash of color to set off the main values, especially on the apple shot, though I like the brown of the basket against the grey of the window too.
Looking through my photos I’ve learned that I take quite a lot of monochromatic shots. I think it’s something I’m drawn to, but I didn’t realize that until this challenge. You can go to the original post to see other people’s versions of monochromatic.
Thanks for stopping by!
See you soon!
WordPress photo challenge: Connected
My mom’s been gone eleven years now. Sometimes I still feel very connected to her.
Peaches in my mom’s old yellow bowl.
Like when I’m standing in her kitchen preparing peaches for the freezer.

What makes you feel connected?
WordPress Photo challenge: Today was a good day
I’m a lucky person. I’ve had hundreds of good days and I’ve photographed many of them. Some of the very best days happened during trips; you’ve seen lots of them right here on this blog. It seems impossible to pick just one day, much less one photo from one good day.
Still, that’s the challenge.
Yosemite grandeur
So here’s a photo from a trip to California. We wandered Yosemite National Park during a misty chilly day. It was stunning, and not just at the famous and often photographed spots. Oh sure those were amazing, the waterfalls, the mountains, all were perfect even in the mist, but it was stunning everywhere we looked. And that’s what made that day a very good day.
Go to the original post to see other interpretations. Or check out a few of my favorites here, here and here.
Now take a moment and think about your life. What makes a good day for you? Share it with us, we’d like to see!
Walk into beauty
WordPress Photo Challenge: Beneath Your Feet
My feet have been to many exotic, beautiful, interesting places. But when I think about what’s regularly beneath my feet I can only think of one thing. A fun, silly, and furry girl who is always underfoot.
Whatcha doing mama? Can I come too?
Check out a few of my favorite “Beneath Your Feet” offerings here, here and here. And look down right now. Where are your feet? Anywhere interesting? Share it with us!
NOW what are you doing mama?
WordPress Photo Challenge: Close Up II
Tuesday evening I was lucky enough to be in northern Michigan watching the sun set. This is a closeup of the water as the sun sank below the horizon.
I couldn’t resist showing it to you.
WordPress Photo Challenge: Close Up
Do you know what this is?
WordPress suggested this week we look around the house and find things that might make interesting photos up close.
I’ll let you guess what this is.
Meanwhile, stop at a few of my favorite submissions, showing bits of people’s lives up close, here, here and here.
Don’t miss this one either.
And look around your own home. I bet you find plenty of things that are more interesting up close than they were ever originally designed to be. I look forward to seeing them all!
WordPress Photo Challenge: Symbol
Symbol: a thing that represents or stands for something else, especially a material object representing something abstract.
In some cultures a person visiting a loved one’s grave leaves a memento, sometimes a pebble, to show they’ve been by. To symbolize their love, their loss. I shot this at our small and historical local cemetery.
You can see other representations of the idea of symbol at the original post, or visit a few of my favorites here, here and here.
What symbols do you see in your own life? Want to share with us? Just post a photo and link to the original post.
It’s an interesting concept to try to capture visually. I look forward to seeing what you find.
WordPress Photo Challenge: Door
Family Farm Barn Door
Windows and doors…some of my favorite things to photograph. I like this photo because it’s on the family farm, and because it shows the ingenuity of farmers who use what’s available to create hardware that works.
Look around. What doors do you take for granted that carry memories and beauty to you? Share them with us. Meanwhile, you can see the entries so far at the original post. Or see a few of my favorites (so far, it’s early, this challenge lasts until next Friday) here, here and here. Please take a moment and look at these, they are special.
I’m sure there will be more I like as the week goes on, and I might find another door or two of my own to share. We’ll see.
