Suddenly, it’s (last) summer

While winding down from this nice long (and hot!!) holiday weekend here in the USA, I thought I would look back and see what I was shooting around the same time last year. I was in the midst of my 365 project then so I was taking photos like crazy. I wasn’t working at the time so it was easy enough to go out and take photos but, since I wasn’t working, I had limited funds so I couldn’t stray too far from home. I don’t have anything new from this weekend so I thought it would be a good idea to share some older pics since a lot of my subscribers joined in the later half of the year. I know it is difficult to view older posts in a blog format and I don’t expect anybody to do so and since I don’t have a gallery set up yet (hopefully soon), I’m making it easier for you.

Anyhow, one of the first photos I came across was one of my favorites from last year – “Chicken People”.

Continuing with some from the city:

Some plants:

A few from my peeking into windows at antique stores:

Finally some animals, including the stray cats at the local fairgrounds:

‘chicken people’ is fantastic – eerie and playful. the antiques are fun, and the ladybug is royalty!

  Thanks. “CP” is one of those shots where nothing special is happening but I’m just drawn to it.

  Thanks Sonali. I couldn’t get as close as I wanted on the ladybug so I had to use composition to override that. Sometimes a weakness works in your favor! I like the city shots also. I would like to get there more often then I do because of the endless photo opportunities.
