I am making time this week to take part in some of the challenges I have not been able to play in for a while.
Nancy Merril has asked us to give her one photo of A SUNRISE. Just click the underlined link to find all the sunrises that Nancy’s contributors have offered.
My problem was not finding a sunrise to submit but narrowing it down to one.

This will do I guess.
This week Nancy has challenged us to show her our HANDS.
Click that underlined link to give Nancy and her contributors a hand.
Here are mine.
Each of these hands was photographed on my recent trip to the Southwick Zoo in Mendon MA


Hold on!

Nobody hugs like Mom!

This week Nancy Merrill has challenged us to show her A REFLECTIVE SURFACE.
I took this photo in Ireland in the town of Clifden above Kylemore Abbey

I didn’t even notice the town was reflecting in the roof of the car until I got back to the U.S. and put the photos into Photoshop.
Here is the black & white version of the same photo minus some cropping and turning.

I haven’t been able to participate in NANCY’S CHALLENGE for a few weeks. This week I am jumping on board with the bird challenge.
You can click the underlined link to see what others came up with. Here is my choice for the bird photo of the week.
