Got Game?

I love this image. I only wish I would have found someone to take my photo sitting in that stool. I love tennis and have played the game for 35 years. Still do and love it to bits. I found this graphic on the doors at the Indian Well Tennis tourney, which is another whole realm of fun. Go Azarenko! 


Gotta Love Post Processing

I know some of you think it is cheating but I am not one of those. I find it absolutely fun, fun, fun to post process a photo. To me it is like the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. An image, some software and WHOA! Here is one that I whooped it up on...


I would show you the original but I think it is AWOL. Trust me, it didn't resemble this too much, at least as the coloring goes. It is one of my favs, so far.

A Walking Path Near the Tramway Site

I don't often choose a black and white image but so love the wide path and the contrasts this one offers.

When Life Hands You a Lemon...

It has handed me a lot of lemons, Meyer style and other. I love this big fat juicy one hanging in the apex of the tree.


Make lemonade... with a mixer.
My MIL and SILs arrived for the annual party and this was the beginnings of our beverage collection. Notice the wine label skn...srew, kappa, napa. You gotta love it!


More fun in the sun!

Love the Perspective

I spotted this antique fire truck at the club "hood" and was all over it. This was my favorite photo from the bunch.

Rain in the Desert, Oh My! On Celebrating 25!

I had to pick two again.
First up, we are celebrating Nick's 25th. YEAH!
Second, it actually rained in the desert. It was a rain like in the Midwest, long and slow. I do think it rained most of the night. The desert so likes it when this happens.



Palm Fronds Grab My Attention

Looking down the spine of a prickly palm. I'm not sure what type it is but very cool.
It caught my attention in week 6.
