THE LOOM

"The Loom" (7-18-16 014v2) is from that folder of pix I took on the first long walk down to the beach overlook I've been able to do in years. It's cropped from a shot that took in much more of the scene, and fussed with a bit (especially color and texture). I'd say I'm content with it, especially that lacy surf.

VESSEL

"Vessel" (7-22-16 005v2) is a brand new pic, taken late yesterday and just now worked on. It was snapped on that balcony overlooking our community's pool where I often sit to wool gather (or take pix, or write, and even sometimes snooze lightly). I've been trying for some time to get a shot in which I could retain that angled shadow on the library's outside wall. This shot (rather the crop thereof) just about does it. Given the givens of the location I don't imagine I can do better. Though I'll probably keep trying, knowing me. Smile.

DANCING WITH THE BLUES

"Dancing With the Blues" (6-20-16 006v2ca) was just morphed this morning from a relatively new pic. Been a while since I've posted some sort of fern photo, so I think I might be forgiven for having indulged myself again, playing around with their delightful patterns.

THE WILLOW'S RAIN DANCE

"The Willow's Rain Dance" (7-18-16 010v5) is from the batch of pix I took on Monday's long walk to the beach overlook. It's of a willow just a few feet away from the one in yesterday's pic. Had a hard time choosing among the several versions I made of this crop as each has those shapes and lines in the trunk that I like so much.

THERE YOU ARE, OLD FRIEND!

"There You Are, Old Friend!" (7-18-16 007v3) was just taken yesterday and fixed up a wee bit this morning. This tree is quite truly an old friend. One I hadn't visited with in close to six years until yesterday, when I made the walk (at last) all the way to the ocean again. On the way back I sat for a bit in its welcome shade on my walker (I took it so I can sit when I need to, for less long walks I just use my walking stick) and kept my hand on its trunk. Wishing I wouldn't be embarrassed to hug it, as I would have done in my long ago hippie years. Smile.

CHURCH

"Church" (7-16-16 007v2a) was taken yesterday and fussed with just now. I have pix of the church that cross is from (out of frame on the left). But I much prefer this pic of plants (succulents? cacti?). And that plant spire on the right seems like a steeple for the church (if you will) this greenery springs from.
