At the marina on the Inner Harbour of Victoria, British Columbia, this morning shot of the boats, and the very calm water. Gentle ripples, and no one stirring this early. The world seemed to be holding its breath. I loved the boats-such a wide variety, with no two even remotely alike. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/serene/

Photo Challenge…Experimental..What WAS that against the sky?
When I'm out with my camera, I like pointing it up at the sky. Sometimes I find interesting shapes. This one is on the outside of the building where I work. It's the top of the ladder to the roof, but seen against a blue sky, it's art. Then, at night, in Arizona, again pointing …

Temporary-Beautiful Things That Don’t Last
The fact that cloud formations are by their nature temporary makes you appreciate them more. How often have you looked up at spectacular clouds, and had to keep watching as they scud across the sky at the mercy of winds on high? Our skies out here in Western Washington State are often gray, but there …
Peek at some architecture-Photo Challenge
This piece of building, obviously in ruins now, was the beginning of a breakthrough that formed the beginnings of Gothic architecture. Want to see the rest of this very old building? Here it is. You can see the tracery wall in the middle front of the medieval castle. A peek into history. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/peek/
‘Round the Backyard-Photo Challenge
Circles within circles, in the snow. A frozen birdbath. And 'round the bird feeder, the Pine Siskins chase each other around the outside perch, to eat at any of the circular openings. Maybe the one next door has more seed? https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/rounded/
Photo Challenge A Significant Glow
This is the view from the deck of our vacation house in Bigfork, Montana, on September 7, the day after we got there from Washington. You can't see much, due to the smoke from the terrible wildfires, that closed Glacier National Park, and prevented our group from doing most outdoor activities. And on September 10, …
Photo Challenge…Pedestrian
Most people drive or cycle through cities these days. From the window of a car, or the seat of a bicycle, you can miss the details that only a pedestrian, walking along at a slow pace, can see. On our walk through Uptown Port Townsend, I caught these details that might have been overlooked from …
Seen through a window…at 60 miles per hour!
I have gotten pretty good at taking photos from the passenger-side windows of our car. On our way to Montana and back, I shot these photos from the moving vehicle-I really wanted my friends to see what the air quality was, as a result of the wildfires in Montana and Eastern Washington. This was just …

A New Photo Challenge: Layered
Hubby and I spent the week after Labor Day in Bigfork, Montana, at a Ricochet meet up that had been planned for over a year. There was no way we could have predicted that most of Washington, Idaho, and Montana would be shrouded in smoke from multiple wildfires in Eastern Washington and Montana. When we …
Photo Challenge…….Waiting
Kikyo is looking up through the clerestory window high up in the east wall of our family room. She sat like that for 15 minutes without moving a muscle, waiting for a bird to appear in the vine maple tree just outside the window. One never did. Waiting in vain. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/waiting-2017/
