Vibrant

I'm tired of winter grays this week, so I went looking for some color and found myself drawn to bright, vibrant oranges.


(I thought I'd do red and maybe work my way through in rainbow order, but I just wasn't feeling red, a fact I'm blaming on a red and white sewing project I'm ready to be done with)


So, orange...

Raing OH by Tasawa69

One of my favorite things about this one is that it's such a warm, lively color -- and it's titled "Rainy OH". There's something about the unexpected contrast that just appeals to my sense of whimsy.

Reflective

Sorry folks, final papers and the holidays got in the way of blogging for a while.

New Years always seems like a reflective sort of time with all the resolution-making and starting anew -- and, although it's not as poetic, I just stumbled across a reflection shot I really like.

So here are two reflective, reflections for you:

Round and Round We Go...

Lately I've found myself adding several similar pictures to my favorites. Different materials, but almost the exact same composition: lots and lots of circles.

I'm not sure what in my sub-conscious is drawn to circles, but, here are a few of them. Enjoy!

A bit of color for today...

After last week's winter-y posts, I could use a change of pace. So I went hunting for green and yellow -- bright, fresh and cheerful.




Here's a macro (love the lines)
