Greens, yellows and reds are all highlighted by the blue sky in these autumn trees. These photographs will all look much better when clicked on to enlarge!
A light fall snow on a wooden boardwalk exaggerates late afternoon shadows and footprints.
Seaweed and algae growing on these shoreline tidepools take on an almost primordial appearance. One can almost see original life beginning here.
Cotton-ball skies!
Paving stones, some faded, some holding their shades.
A ground full of autumn leaves of every hue, shape, and size.
A strict grid of granite pavers is really fairly loose in structure when seen up close.
Snow bearing down on an ornamental grass creates swirls and whirls.
Tiny seashells form an entire section of beach. There is sand under there somewhere!
Lambs' ears "weeds" were once used as bandages and antiseptics in colonial times.
Crushed oyster shells are used in many shoreline walkways, patios and even driveways.
Another Connecticut day ends as these puffy clouds roll in. What do you see?
I see Santa Claus looking down and looking finding out who's naughty or nice...
ReplyDeleteDrat, I'm in trouble then! : )
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are art! What a beautiful series.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Paul, NYC
No, thank YOU, Paul! Sometimes I'd like to be able to blow up some of my photos to wall size. I think they'd be a fascinating exhibit. My Lotto/Powerball dreams are no longer mansions and limousines, but unlimited art supplies and equipment, lol! Though I'd still have a nice place to work on my art and a great transportation device or three!
ReplyDeleteUsing crushed oyster shells in patios is good idea to reduce waste dumping on our garbage sites.
ReplyDeleteSINCE COMING TO YOUR BLOG AND A COUPLE OTHER ART BLOGS DAYLY, I FIND MYSELF LOOKING AT ALOT OF THINGS IN LIFE DIFFERANT.GOD IS THE GREATEST ARTIST OF ALL. JUST LOOK AT THAT SKY. WOW, BLOWS MY MIND. THANKS FOR SHARING.
ReplyDeleteMY HEALING IS STILL GOING ON.THE GLUE THE DOCTOR USED ON MY EYEBROW CUT, I DON'T SEE HOW I'LL GET IT OFF UNLESS I CUT THE HAIR OFF THE BROW. THE CUT HAS TO BE HEAL BY NOW.LOOKING THROUGH THE CLEAR GLUE SHE USED ICAN'T SEE THE CUT ONLY DRIED BLOOD. I'M GOING TO LEAVE IT ON FOR A FEW MORE DAYS THEN I'M GOING TO START USING HOT WATER PACKS TO SOFTEN TO GET IT OFF. OUCH. I STILL HAVE SOME BLACK AND BLUE LEFT BUT TRYING TO FADE.
GRANNY
glad to hear you're feeling better, Granny. I think that glue is supposed to eventually come off on its own. The hot packs will probably help a lot.
ReplyDeleteOn second thought perhaps that "Santa" I see is really a Gnome. I don't know, they look so much alike. Do you see him in that last photo.
ReplyDeleteI see a million things in it. I'm still way too much of a "tuned in" Timothy Leary hippie for my own good, lol.
ReplyDeleteBut thanks for reminding me to take in my garden gnome for the winter. He's still outside!
The algae/seaweed shot looks like the topography of a different planet, nature is amazing!
