As per the rules, this last challenge is supposed to be photos we have not posted before. Like Tina, many of my photos are plants and critters, from my back yard first, then other places. We are fortunate to have a yard with plants that turn gorgeous colors in Autumn, especially our Japanese Maple trees. …

For much of this week, we have had what the weather guys call an “atmospheric river” bringing heavy rain to our area from that big water to our west, known as the Pacific Ocean. Here are some photos and videos showing our waters. First, Snoqualmie Falls. https://twitter.com/markskaggs10/status/1998898875147628652?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ And here’s one from a helicopter. https://twitter.com/pnwconservative/status/1998872381176344595?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Note …
Hubby and I went out for dinner tonight, at a place near the Everett Marina. On the way in, I noticed that some of the boats near the restaurant had already put up Christmas lights on their masts and around their edges. So I told him that we should stop on the way home and …

This article for us Mark Steyn Cub members relates very well how today's so-called Feminists have stopped supporting ordinary women, ignoring the total degradation of "asylum-seekers" who rape women and girls all over Europe. Leftists are Leftist First, everything else later, including feminist. ~I'm old enough to remember when stand-up comedians did rape jokes. Not …
Earlier this week, Hubby and I had a little getaway to LaConner, situated on the Swinomish Channel. It’s a long tidal channel northwest of Seattle. On the West side of the Channel is the Swinomish Indian Reservation, and on the West side is the picturesque town of LaConner. We go there often, as it’s only …
In August of 2001, just after I started dating my now-husband, he rented a small airplane, and we flew from Everett to Friday Harbor in the San Juan Islands. Here are some of the pictures I took from the co-pilot seat in the Cessna 182, and on the ground. Snohomish County and Mount Baker Anacortes …

Living in the Pacific Northwest, we have lots of shorelines within a few minutes, or hours drive. And we have lakes and rivers, which also have shorelines, along with the oceans. The shoreline closest to me is along Silver Lake. This was early in the morning on my way to work. About 50% of the …

Ooh, this is going to be fun! I have been a transportation buff since the mid-1980s, when I spent a year as an apprentice to a transportation consultant. Whenever I see a train, I try to watch it until it is out of sight. Living in the Pacific Northwest surrounded by bodies of water, we …

Double trouble. Double indemnity. Double-cross. My photos for "seeing double" aren't all reflections, but they are all double. How about this formidable pair of musicians, the Eyer Sisters? Both young ladies are excellent musicians, and they stole the show at the Accordion Celebration this year. On my outings to the new Waterfront Place development on …

So, what motivated my friend Cee to choose reflections and shadows for this week's fun challenge? I see, she fell right into my hands... Reflections and shadows are some of my very favorite photographic subjects! Bodies of water are excellent for reflections, aren't they? Especially if the water is flat, mirror-like. The waters of Silver …
