July 27: We were at the Dodge dealership in Oneonta early Monday morning, where we got the unwelcome news that Bob had blown a head gasket. This meant that A) we were about to fork over a whole boatload of money and B) we were going to have to find an alternative way to get home, since it would take several days to repair. We then waited for several hours to get a rent-a-car. The dealership was a bleak place on a bleak strip of highway. About the only bright or pretty things in sight were a few urns of these yellow flowers situated at the entrances. I like the way Cut Out makes them almost abstract.
...is to fill 52 themes, one a week for the year. Some weeks, maybe I'll try to find several photos to fit the themes. Others, I may spend more time trying to perfect one that seems best to represent the theme. Three years of a photo-a-day opened my eyes, now I want to hone my skills.
Somehow, a camera allows me to see more deeply and awakens the eye. For me, undertaking these year-long challenges is a way to become more aware of the world that swirls around me.
There is always a bright spot in every situation, just think, if this didn't happen you would not have gotten this gorgeous image!
ReplyDeleteWay to find the shot! The background flowers especially look abstract with the processing,. Cheery color to come upon
