Tuesday Photo Challenge – Sunrise
This post inspired by Frank at Dutch goes the Photo
The prompt: Sunrise
I am not the morning person in the family. Never have been. Prying my eyes open before coffee for any useful purpose…not advisable. Focusing on anything that early in the day would not lead to my best work….
In search of a suitable photo for this challenge, I knew just where to look. My husband – definitely a morning person – even a cheerful morning person at that – had just what I was looking for. And graciously agreed to contribute the following photos, taken on his morning walks before work.

Photo a Week – Meme-worthy photos
Nancy Merrill is hosting a photo challenge. The theme this week – Meme-worthy photos
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR MORE) THAT WOULD MAKE A GREAT MEME BACKGROUND.
I caught this late afternoon peaceful scene one cold day in December.
Even the seagulls seemed to stand still.
I used the image to highlight one of my favorite quotes…
~~~
Another day – at the same beach, looking behind me…
This time sunny and windy.
The blue sky a potential background for a word or two or three…
Any suggestions?
I welcome your ideas for text for this possible meme-worthy photo…
Tuesday Photo Challenge – Layer
This post inspired by Frank at Dutch goes the Photo
The prompt: Layer
One very windy November afternoon in 2016…
Layer upon layer of loud angry waves crashed toward shore
Lining up one right after the other…
Relentless.
Matching rhythm with my steps
As I paced up and down the beach
That day.
Head down bracing for the gusts
As I pounded through the sand
Relentless.
Trying to make sense
Of the path ahead.
Hampton Beach, NH

Today’s challenge…Lines
Let’s think warm!
Sun + Blue sky + Vacation…
Such was the case ten years ago on our one and only anniversary cruise.
Lucky enough to enjoy beautiful weather and calm seas, I was able to explore the ship – camera in hand.
Photo a Week – On the Horizon
Nancy Merrill is hosting a photo challenge. The theme this week: A Photo a Week Challenge – On the Horizon
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO OF HORIZONS (PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL, OR OTHERWISE).
Walking along the boardwalk one day in late October.
Late morning. Sun is shining. The beach is deserted.
Found a seat on an empty bench.
What a sight.
Banks of fluffy white clouds cushioning the horizon…
…where ocean meets the sky.
Photo a Week – Blue
Nancy Merrill is hosting a photo challenge. The theme this week:
A Photo a Week Challenge – Blue
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO THAT FEATURES THE COLOR BLUE.
Blue is one of those colors that soothe. And calm.
(which makes me wonder why it is also a description for sadness…)
About 10 years ago, my husband and I went on a cruise to Bermuda for our 30th anniversary. Blue was everywhere! Impossible not to relax.
This photo was taken from the back (the stern?) of the ship…in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
Needless to say, we had perfect weather!
