A Photo A Week Challenge: Open

6 Replies

Anything closed can be opened and anything open can be filled, be it the last space in a picture puzzle, an open basket, a piece of hollow bamboo. and open basket or a drainpipe. Flowers open, a dog’s ears perk up, open and listen, mouths open, wings open, and we in turn fill our eyes with all of these openings.

Valuables: Saturday Stream of Consciousness Prompt

16 Replies

You need to click on these to see them well.. especially the first long skinny one. 

 

Somewhere I saw a daily prompt whose prompt today was photos of things that began with  “VAL.” I put my thinking cap on and came up with “Valuables,” so I took photos of my jewelry which, although not diamonds and gold, is valuable to me. Then, in typical “me” fashion, I could not find the prompt to link it to, so if this sounds familiar to you, please clue me in with a link?  Prayers answered.. muchas gracias, Sadje, for telling me the site of the prompt.!

Cornbread and Coffee

Bushboy asked us to post a photo of what we had for breakfast today. Last night my sister reminded me of a breakfast my mother used to make that was our favorite. It was corn bread or cornmeal muffins with Karo corn syrup. My sister had just made some for herself so I decided to do the same this morning. Only problem was the lack of corn syrup, so I made do with maple. Didn’t taste as good as my mother’s, though. Maybe I needed my sister’s company to enjoy it fully.
So what did you have for breakfast?

Please look on you camera or in your photos folder on your computer or phone and publish the last picture you took to your blog page and then link it to the comments on this page of mine!  No explanations necessary. Be sure to publish a link to my blog post in your blog so others can see all the photos and play along.

Here is the last photo I took:

A friend sent me this request and it is such a good idea that I’m stealing their idea. Unfortunately, I can’t find their original message to me so can’t remember who they are to give them credit.
