52 Photos Project

The prompt for Week 41—all dressed up

Snapped this shot of some random tourists
and a Roman "centurion" in front of the
Pantheon last time I was in Rome.  It's a little
silly—but they look like good sports, don't they?

The prompt for Week 40: my reflection

Really wasn't sure how I would handle this 

one.  Then we had a big snowstorm
yesterday and I took a picture from the
office window—and there I was, so . . .

The prompt for Week 39: wide open spaces

I live in New York City, where wide open spaces
are at a premium (or pretty much nonexistent). But
about a year ago, I traveled to the Galapagos and
climbed to the top of a big hill to capture
this vista.  (I'm on the uninhabited island of
Bartolomé and off in the distance is Isla Santiago.)

The prompt for Week 38: something really small

Salt crystals are really small—and look special
in a pretty blue glass salt cellar with a tiny spoon.

The prompt for Week 37:
One photo from the 1st day of 2014

I'm down in Virginia horse country, and this
morning I went to visit some old  "retired" friends.
I could just see them thinking, "Hey, isn't that
the woman who brings us peppermints?" . . .

and then realizing, "Yes, it is!"

The prompt for Week 36: "your choice"

When you leave it way open like that, Bella, I have
a hard time choosing!  But this shot—our
beautiful Empire State Building all decked out
for Christmas—certainly suits this day.  
There seems to be some controversy lately over
Merry Christmas vs. Happy Holidays, so
I'll
just say that whatever you celebrate around
the end of the year . . . I hope it's lovely!

The prompt for Week 35: holiday traditions

Here in NYC, the holiday show at Radio City Music Hall 
is a longstanding tradition.  I've actually only seen it once
(compliments of relatives visiting from out of town, 
and that's when I took this shot).  I'm sure I never 
would have gone otherwise—but I really did enjoy it.
And the Rockettes . . . rock!
