I’m not sure if the first two qualify for this “Faraway” challenge, but at the very least, they are “Here and Away!”  I seem to be fond of sepia lately so these evolved from color to b&w to sepia before I finally committed.

Here are some more––black and white for the most part:

I liked this pink tinge in the sky.

I took these pictures in my garden yesterday, before the rain.

This strange object that looks like a meteorite or piece of carved Cinnabar is actually a dahlia. I just edited and edited until this was the end result.. It is rather beautiful, I think, so I'm including it. I think it looks like two hooded women standing back-to-back.

This strange object that looks like a meteorite or piece of carved Cinnabar is actually a dahlia. I just edited and edited , using different filters and tools until this was the result. It is rather beautiful, I think, so I’m including it. I think it looks like two hooded women standing back-to-back. If you look closely, you can see the stamens in the center toward the top.  They also look like the impression of a turtle.

What To do When the Electricity is Off

After 20 hours without electricity, we didn’t even notice when it came on!  I had just come in from editing pictures I’d taken in the garden.  My friend was making dinner.  Here are the shots I took while on hiatus from the internet.
