Well it has been a while since I have been to a family reunion. I guess I think of my church as my extended family. I am related to lots of folks in the church where I work and to all of them by like-minded faith.
Here is my extended church family at a recent missions dinner.
It was a great night. Teen Challenge came from Brockton and served the dinner and ministered to us in testimony and song.
Hey while you are at it check out other extended family photos at A PHOTO A WEEK CHALLENGE!
This week the one word we have to depict is ARMADILLO.
Hey now! I live in Massachusetts the closest armadillo to me is…well really far away! I was sure I wouldn’t be able to come up with anything and then I spent some time looking through the characteristics of armadillos.
DID YOU KNOW THAT ARMADILLOS DO NOT SWIM? THEY FLOAT!!!
JUST LIKE THESE FOLKS…
AND IF YOU TAKE ONE LETTER OUT OF ARMADILLO AND SPIN SOME OF THE LETTERS AROUND IT BECOMES AMARILLO WHICH EVERYONE KNOWS IS THE ARMADILLOS FAVORITE COLOR, YELLOW! 🙂
Okay if that is too much of a stretch for you can check out better armadillo photos by clicking the underlined link at the top of the page. 😉
This week Ailsa has suggested that we show a little bit of our SELF through our travels.
I can do that. My selfies are below but you can find other Self portraits by clicking the underlined link above.
Well this week The Daily Post has assured us “The Eyes Have It”.
To see how others have interpreted the theme EYES click on the underlined link above. Here is what I see:
Mothers’ Eyes
Whachu Talkin Bout?
This week Cee has challenged us all to bring buildings and trees together. The man-made and the God-made in one place. Check out the mix of man-made and natural at CEE’S PLACE
HERE IS MY TREE/BUILDING GALLERY
This week Cee has challenged us to show her anything that flies in Black & White.
You can see how others took up this challenge by clicking the underlined link.
I am not overly good at capturing things in motion so I had to be a little creative with this one. These are all things that could fly if they were real.
This is the Zaandam version of the Liva birds… I think.
This is a phoenix in St. Bavo’s, Haarlem
O.K. So I really do believe in angels but honestly I think they are much bigger and most times a little scarier than this.
This week Nancy has asked us to show us a photo with a sift background.
You can find lots of them by clicking on the link above.
My shot for the week is below:
The point here is to focus on the fruit. The world is full of green but it is the fruit which brings life.
This post is in response to The Daily Post’s Challenge: TRIO
Here are some things that come in threes:
The kiddos!
Mercedes’ litter: Bandit, Fred and Snug
Three lamps to light the way.
I had thought of the greatest Three of all, but getting the Father, Son and Holy Spirit all in one photo turns out to be a little difficult for this photographer.
This week Cee has given us free reign as to the topic we would bring to the table. I have chosen Ireland in Black & White.
You can check out what topics others chose: HERE
Here are my choices for the week:
Muckross House, Killarney
Gardens at Muckross
Heading into The Burren, County Clare
Drogheda
So this week we have been asked to depict the word ANT by Jennifer at O.W.P.C.
You can see how others portrayed the concept by clicking the underlined link above.
I came at it from two directions:
First is our common perspective.
Here I am looking at all the little ants below….
