scattered thoughts

a week of hot cold, up down and in between...
but I think it's better to leave out the details of my fragmented concentration,
and just go with the photo highlights...
(well maybe also to say Thank God; Goddess; the Universe; a guy named Jack under the bridge; or a big silver fish in the sky
for my husband who always reminds me everything will be OK,
 because it will!!!!)


 


purple flowers left
pollen covered bees busy
ignoring my clicks


I have been photographing bees on flowers all summer, easy to get, but hard to get the perfect one, you may have to see more next week...
and the week after...



Of course I made a mandala...



 
I don't usually have family pics on my blog 
but I was out taking photos for my older son's senior portrait....
this one is my favorite, not for the yearbook
but for me,
as it's actually "him" caught in between forced smiles for the shots he was ready for... 
 
I googled 'ideas for senior portraits' to come up with the idea to pose him on the tracks....
google is so great like that
 
and it's my Dad's birthday today....
Happy Birthday Dad!
 
and a few pages in my sketchbook...
someday I will make  a flip-through video of my sketchbooks....







I totally did not have a good purple available to paint with .... yuk to that!



 
 That's it for now I guess....
I have been painting maps, imaginary places, lots of them...
but that is for another week...

my world is golden

the whole world here has turned golden...
 


shades of yellow and orange...


 
sunkissed flowers...
 


 falling leaves....


fields of golden rod...

 




linking to mandarin orange monday and maybe even joining in on Blogtoberfest where we will all post daily in October... not sure I can make that but I'll give it a shot.
