August 17 is “National I Love My Feet Day”
And this is why I had to bring her home..the morning after I adopted her in her new collar just woven for her on the beach.

I nearly missed out on the fact that today is “National I Love My Feet” day!!!! Above are some of my favorite foot shots. Just couldn’t confine my photos to my own feet, although there are are few of them in there. Anybody recognize any of the other feet?
In case that hasn’t satisfied your foot fetish, here is another post on the subject: https://judydykstrabrown.com/2015/08/06/hands-feet-paws-cees-black-white-photo-challenge/
Thanks to Carol Cormier for pointing out that it is National I Love My Feet Day!!!! Have a look at her link to see her family’s feet.
The Rest of the Story for Cee’s FOTD Aug 17, 2023
Here is the state of the banana cluster for Cee’s FOTD. The flower was already shown HERE.
as a “What flower is this?” post. Two folks guessed immediately. Guess there are more banana growers in the world than simply me! The bananas are presently just 5 inches long. The red part of the flower is 10 inches. I think the fluffy part at the top of the flower is actually little aborted bananas. Is that as much as you wanted to hear about bananas today? I’m fascinated, looking forward to another crop as there wasn’t one last year and bananas mean banana bread. And calories. Hmmm.

Cee’s response to the Lens Artists Challenge inspired me to do three quickie shots through my living room/office windows. See her window shots HERE.
Banana Bloom FOTD Aug 17, 2023
This was a surprise find in my garden the other day. I know what it is. Do you? I’ll tell after five guesses!!!! It is huge, by the way. At least a foot long. Actually, the second two people guessed correctly. It is a banana bloom! I’m going to have bananas this year!!!

Today we made earrings and bracelets. Each item unique. It is amazing how handy and creative they are. This is my last day of camp. They have one day more.
“Framed!” for Lens-Artists Challenge #162
Guess who?
Click on photos to enlarge.
Other than my art objects, (I know, that first one is cheating)I think my most frequent way to frame a shot is through trees or with surrounding plants. The telephone wires overhead in the hummingbird shot give a contrast in frames to the plants below–like the two extremes. The bright orange swatch framed by beach litter is less contrived than the shots through plane and car and house windows. Zoe, about to be released from jail, says she didn’t do it. She was framed!!! This is my third go at trying to find photos for this prompt. The first two groups were erased before I could save them. This one I saved after every photo. Tedious, but I’m finally posting four hours later!! Don’t fail to see the photos in the link below. They are much more inspiring than mine:
