The theme for this week at Where’s My Backpack is ‘bountiful’ and in this case, bountiful blooms! There’s something about the word, bountiful, that just makes me think of Fall and all the rich colors it brings. For these pics, I repositioned the mums into sunny spot and then got my camera in close. Hope you enjoy this interpretation – want more? More bountiful posts.
The health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired, so long as we can see far enough. — Ralph Waldo Emerson
The theme for this week at Where’s My Backpack is “Horizon.” This theme gave me the perfect excuse to go back through my archive. I chose some of my favorite horizon images, mostly from previous family summer vacations. Hope you enjoy!
Colors passing through us
Purple as tulips in May, mauveinto lush velvet, purpleas the stain blackberries leaveon the lips, on the hands,the purple of ripe grapessunlit and warm as flesh.
Every day I will give you a color,like a new flower in a bud vaseon your desk. Every dayI will paint you, as womencolor each other with hennaon hands and on feet.
The theme at Where’s My Backpack this week is metal. Hope you enjoy these images of “vintage” metal!
This week Ailsa, from Where’s My Backpack, asks to see images that represent Close-Up. I don’t really do a lot of macro photography but I do enjoy zooming in close to objects in order to get a little different perspective. In each of the photos below, I love the striking shapes and colors that you can find by zooming in. How about you, what images would you share that represent close-up?

Ask her what she craved and she'd get a little frantic about things like books, the woods, music. Plants and the Seasons. Also Freedom.
