I'm Obsessed ...

Still playing with filters. Here I've used
the Accented Edges effect

I found I was out of New York bagels and cream cheese, so off to the market I scurried. What was I to find? SUNFLOWERS! Why did I photograph them? Because they were THERE!

However, I also photographed the pumpkins, the squash, a pomegranate and some chili peppers. I'll share the others with you another day. I am going to share the squash because I love how the Poster Edges effect really picked up the variety of colors in the squash; too cool!

Happy day! Happy day! I have bagels for breakfast in the morning and I snapped a shot or two for Project 365. This is Day 278, by the by.

Autumn rain on the way ...



Forecast is for rain before morning; can already feel the temperature dropping and there's a certain feel to the air. I love waking up to the sound of falling rain. I can hardly wait.

However, before the rain cometh, we were able to drive up to Hansen's orchards in Green Bluff, just north of Spokane. Pleasant place a-bustle with people picking their own apples, perusing the wonderful crafts and preserves in Hansen's gift store, and wishing they had gotten there earlier before the apple cider sold out.

I wandered a bit on my own and caught a couple of shots of sunflowers, et cetera.
