Magnificent Earth. Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. The view from Rainbow Point shows the beautiful red-rock cliffs, sculpted over millennia by wind and water. Bryce Canyon, from Rainbow Point https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/earth/ I've been getting such nice comments, here's a fellow who greeted us at another of the overlooks at Bryce.

Weekly Photo Challenge…Admiration for a Thing of Beauty
I have always admired my violin, which I bought from its maker in 1987, when it was nearly brand new. David VanZandt lives in Seattle, and every once in awhile I take my beautiful violin home to "Daddy" for him to touch up the varnish and do any needed adjustments. I found that, once I …

Weekly Photo Challenge…Abstract
If you're not careful, your eyes will cross and your brain will tie itself in knots, wondering what it's looking at. From far away, just a riverbank. Up close? Just don't walk down by the Columbia River in bare feet. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/abstract/
Weekly Photo Challenge…Landscape
My first thought was...this is way too easy! Landscapes are a large proportion of the photos I take. So, it was difficult to pick one that's my favorite. I figured I'd stay close to home. I have always been very fond of the "shrub-steppe" terrain found in Central Washington State. The road that goes south …
Weekly Photo Challenge…Dancing at Her Wedding
https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/dance/ They got the slow dance out of the way, so they could dance to the Persian music. My nephew married a gorgeous young lady whose family is from Iran. Her dad gave an absolutely hilarious speech that had all the wedding guests rolling in the aisles. To the Dance!
One Love (Photo Challenge)…My Love for the Seashore
As long as I can remember, I have always loved the seashore. I grew up in Seattle, on Puget Sound, an arm of the Pacific Ocean. In the summer, my sister and I would join our maternal grandparents and our Portland cousins for a week at Seaside, on the Oregon coast. In the 1980s, I …

Weekly Photo Challenge…Harmony…My Heritage in Pictures, and Music
In 2007, my husband and I went to Israel with Michael Medved and his family (he is based and broadcasts from KTTH 770 Radio in Seattle). One morning, I took a solitary walk to the Old City in Jerusalem, and visited the Western (Wailing) Wall, the remaining remnant of the Second Temple. Jews come here …

Weekly Photo Challenge: States of Mind: in Awe of Nature
I love going to the mountains, God's Big Construction Project (and also destruction project). These mountains, in Zion National Park in Utah, used to be at the bottom of a big shallow sea. Notice the many layers of rock, first deposited over millions of years, then thrust into the sky. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/state-of-mind/
Weekly Photo Challenge: Seasons
I've got this one covered. My favorite season of the year is Autumn. I got married in October of 2003, and I'm in that period of my life, and loving it. My husband and I went to Victoria, British Columbia for our honeymoon, since he had never been there before. We took the Victoria Clipper …
Weekly Photo Challenge: Time
I was finding this topic pretty difficult-how do you picture Time? The original description over at The Daily Post cited Matt Haig's "Reasons To Stay Alive", and he states that a way to stop time is "Read". Aha! On my trip to University of Cambridge, we went to the Library at Gonville & Caius College, …
