Warm Sun, Cool Air


Grandma and Granddaughter, enjoying the ride.

Sailing was fabulous...one of those days when you can feel the end of summer coming, but it's not giving up yet. We took the daughter and granddaughter with us, packed a picnic lunch, and spent 5 glorious hours on Saginaw Bay.

Maybe there will be a few more sailing days left?

What did you do this weekend?

Looks like a lovely weekend. I spent the weekend on "catch-up" stuff.

Though I should have been doing "catch-up," it was much more fun to sail. I struggle with leaving flare in the photo, but I think sometimes it adds something, a bit of reality, and weather info, and emphasis on the sun. I don't know.

As for the horizon line, I have been working very hard on this, and you don't see what I decide isn't good enough to show:). With the straightening tool in Photoshop Elements, I have more of a chance of keeping some of my photos!
Looks fab to me.

Spent the weekend at home with the hubby and went to church!

Happy Friday.

Love the sun shining on the water. Just have to love Photoshop - it helps create masterpieces doesn't it.

Happy Week- being home and loving photography

Roamin Meets the GPS- Stories from the Road Lisa, my favorite Curious Girl , created a wonderful idea for a week of "happy" posts. Share those things which make you happy, bring joy to your life, and generally fill you with happy thoughts (I do love the movie Hook , with Robin Williams). We are just returned from our fabulous 23-day, 5600 mile, 10 state, 4 time-zone adventure, and I am filled with happy thoughts today. I am also aware of the piles of laundry, the dirty car, the grocery shopping, and the weary body. Those are not the things I'll share today! Today it's about the joy of road-tripping. The miracle that we live in such a country that everywhere you go you see something to celebrate. I love driving down the road and seeing something new, or different, or unexpected. We drove for a very long time across the upper mid-west, while following signs for "Wall Drugs." Apparently this is a historic stop, originally a place for those who crossed the coun...

Hidden Gem

Thank you, Georgia , for helping me focus on the hidden gem, the place we love to go and not be found. Not far from home...it IS home. We call it "out back," and once there we are transported to a private place, not visible from houses or road or the casual observer. I couldn't choose just one photo, so I created a collage of this special part of our world. Enjoy.

Celebrating 100 Posts - A Challenge

Yes, we are closing in on our 100th post . Truly amazing. Thank you for reading and participating, helping keep the ideas, words and photos flowing. In honor of this momentous occasion, let's have a party. A party where "100" is featured. Do not become concerned if an idea doesn't pop into your head right away. You have one week to come up with something which includes 100 . Think party, celebration and fun. Think creatively. Think challenge. Photography is about expressing yourself, and challenging yourself. Here's a real stretcher! Celebrate with us by posting a photo (or series) which depicts the number 100 in some way. Let me know if you're going to participate and I'll create a way for everyone to link to each other's pages - chuckling, laughing, crying and surprising. You'll be amazed what you see when you start looking. Still at a loss? Here is a non-exhaustive look at the number 100: 100 years ago (something nostalgic- there's wigg...
