52 Photos Project

The prompt for Week 8: "In flight"

I caught these fishing buddies (well, actually, they
were probably rivals after the same fish) looking for
lunch in the Galapagos.  The pelican had just
missed a catch and was taking off again to give it
another try.  The frigate bird was looking for his own
catch or one he could steal from another bird
(because they do that all the time).

The prompt for Week 7: powder blue

I'm borrowing this photo from my peripatetic
daughter Kate, who just spent two weeks 

in Alaska.  In theory, I guess the sky should be 
"sky blue," but when I saw this photo, I thought,
 "There's your powder blue."  BTW, that snow-capped
peak at the far right?  That's Mt. McKinley.


{Thanks for letting me "borrow" your beautiful image, Katie!}

The prompt for Week 6: busy street

This should be easy for me—I live in NYC.
And—not for nuthin' (as we say here)—I took 
this 
shot of traffic zipping up 8th Avenue at around 2 AM!

The prompt for Week 5:  The light arrived
and opened like a rose garden

I took Pablo Neruda's inspiration (via Bella)
somewhat literally.  This photo captures the light
filtered through the wisteria leaves that frame 

the entrance to my favorite rose garden.
