B&W Moody

I'm having a hard time finding or even taking a photo that would depict "moody"... but here goes.

Time Gone By #2 and #3

Our cat Timmy (15 years old) was able to lay outside in the sun yesterday for the first time since we moved here 3 1/2 years ago. Needless to say, he loved it and Jack loved having him in the backyard with him. In the first photo, Timmy seems to be saying to the birds flying overhead, "There once was a time I could chase you." The second photo is of Jack "herding" Timmy back into the house, as if to say, "Time's up. We gotta go inside now."

Time Gone By...

I took a photo of a photo. The photographer at Bruno's in Tacoma took this beautiful photo of Eric for his senior pictures. The background photo is his kindergarten photo. Every time I look at this it brings tears to my eyes.

Silhouette

I'm not so sure this can really count as a silhouette, but I love this photo of Bruce using his headlamp to read a magazine when the electricity was out for several days this winter.

What I've Missed Posting So Far...

This is my Lines photo. This was taken on that same wild April evening with all the clouds in the sky. I liked how the lines of clouds looked through the lines of trees. Though I didn't edit this photo, I'm not sure why some of the smaller tree branches in the front of the photo look purple.

This photo is my "Art" photo. I would love to do an oil or acrylic painting of this photo. This was taken from the backyard on that wild April evening when we seemed to have every type and color of cloud in the sky all at once. Can you see the big bird flying across the sky on the right?

Spring Flowers. This is the first year we noticed there's a wild Dogwood tree growing in the gulley just beyond our backyard fence. I took this photo in the evening, and I liked the effect the dusk light gave the flowers. I did have to brighten the photo a tad bit.

Movement. How fast those little wings can go!

This photo is my interpretation of Leading. I saw our resident rabbit has returned, which means to me that he has lead us into Spring.

This one is my New Beginning photo. Our grandbaby is due in September, as you may tell that my daughter-in-law is pregnant in this photo. It represents new beginnings or first-timers for my oldest son and my daughter-in-law (first-time parents), my youngest son (first-time uncle), Bruce and me (first-time grandparents). This is my daughter-in-law Allie, pregnant with the "new beginning", and my son Chris who is holding our newest great nephew.
