….this week’s challenge involves faces




….between Earth Day and Mother’s Day we are challenged to find images that celebrate our beautiful planet Earth
….this week’s photo theme is admiration
I admire my family. I admire the love, courage and commitment that our oldest daughter and the love of her love share. I admire the parenting skills of our youngest daughter and her husband and the love they surround their baby with. I admire my husband for his cooking skills, bravery through difficult times, and the love he showers upon me. I admire my son who after years of networking and perseverance has landed himself a job that allows him to travel, experience the world and meet some very interesting people. Finally I admire my future daughter-in-law who is working on her PhD and keeps my son grounded. Both my husband and I are extremely proud of all our children and their significant others and we admire them all.
….just love this week’s abstract challenge

….ever take photos that look like a piece of abstract art?
This week’s photographic challenge is abstract.

….our granddaughter’s first BBQ dinner at our place
Today was a glorious sunny warm day. When our daughter said she was dropping off the dog for a few hours and then would be back around suppertime we decided to have dinner together. We spent the afternoon pulling out the garden furniture and cleaning it up. I went shopping for food and my husband prepared the charcoal fire and the food to go on it. I set the table and prepared the salad. By the time dinner was ready the temperature dropped a bit so we put on our sweaters and enjoyed our first outdoor meal this spring.
For more dinnertime photos check out WPC site.
….I’m a little late for last week’s WPC – Landscape challenge but I managed to take some interesting shots after our spring snowfall/freeze this week that I wanted to share with you



…..these birds all know their place in this dance for their supper
This week’s WPC word is dance. Is it okay that I’ve used swans two weeks in a row? If it works with the theme, why not?



…..this week’s challenge asks us to post a photo that shows One Love
Initially I thought of posting photos of my loved ones but on my walk today I came across a couple of swan pairs. Swans mate for life. Here is my contribution to this WPC.


….took awhile to find this week’s photo challenge but I didn’t give up
Today’s walk brought me peace and harmony as I played with my new camera and experimented with different angles.
