We're still doing our challenges at PAO. I have to admit that I skipped one because two were sent to me at the same time. I'm having to dig for photos because, truthfully, I don't want to dig into the box of really old family photos. Since we're pretty much doing a lot of nothing (other than mowing) I haven't taken many pictures. Maybe giving myself a "photo a week" would be a good challenge. Project 365 was a lot of fun a few years ago (one photo a day), but my chosen subject was our property and after a few months I was incredibly bored with that. Maybe a more realistic approach would cure the photo doldrums.
Anyhow, time to get caught up on the LO posts.
#8 was the last one I posted, so onward and upward!
#9 - I was cleaning out some old files and found these photos of me and 2 of my great-nephews. These were the first photos we took with my Nikon D1x, which shows how old they are!
#10 - This year was the first time this Dogwood wasn't under the shade of one of the large oaks that we took out. It was absolutely gorgeous and just seemed to scream "Spring."
#11 - When I first saw these pictures I told my sister not to be surprised if they ended up on a LO. The colors are a little wild but I think the paper choices are in the spirit of the fun she and Macie were having.
#12 - My Apollo! Love this big silly idiot to the moon!
#13 - A day in the life long ago.
#14 - Adam's First Communion. I'm still trying to get the date. This was at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Sylva. Father Williams was the celebrant (I think that's the correct term).
#15 - My birthplace in Coeburn, Virginia. It's a very small town located in the southwestern part of the State not far from Abingdon and Bristol. High up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Appalachians. The older I get the more I miss my mountains. All photo credit goes to Shadowlands Photography - a very talented artist and photographer.
#17 - A summer surprise! All of my orange daylilies have decided that they now have 4 layers of petals instead of 1! I'll take it!
#18 - Which finally brings me up to date. These are some of the other varieties of day lilies that I grow. This has been a wonderful year for them with the spring rains that we've had. Every time they bloom it's like seeing them for the first time.
And just like that, I'm caught up! Yay!
Stay safe and listen to the "news" with a jaundiced ear - methinks that things are not always what they seem. ðŸ¤
Love and light!
