Examples of Textures
For this week’s Lens Artists’ Challenge Anne asks for a look at textures. So, here I go. Another plant texture, very dry by comparison; the bark of a date palm: Lichen on a metal fence. The metall, once smooth, is flakey and rough and nature … Continue reading Examples of Textures
One author, four quotes
Terry Pratchett might not be the most romantic author but his approach suits me just fine. “I’d like to know if I could compare you to a summer’s day. Because – well, June 12th was quite nice.” (from Wyrd Sisters, and yes, it really was) … Continue reading One author, four quotes

Light and dark
I thought I was all shadowed-out after the last square month with Becky but here are new photos I had not used, for various reasons. Shadows on the face of a building in Ulm. Shadows from the trees and from above on the lawn leading … Continue reading Light and dark
My crop of crops
The first post answering to this week’s Lens-Artists prompt that I saw was Brian’s from bushboy’s blog. I misunderstood the prompt when I saw Brian’s first photo and thought we are seeing “crops” (as in things that are grown) and I wondered about Australia’s agricultural … Continue reading My crop of crops
Getting close and blowing up
When I first started with digital photography I took lots of random photos and then was amazed what I had snapped when I saw the pictures on the bigger screen of my computer. The bloom of a dandelion, generally considered a weed, was one of … Continue reading Getting close and blowing up
