Ruby Tuesday: Popcorn

Image
It's bright red, has a lively sound, a spiffy awning, little globe lights and smells good. I'll have mine buttered with a Diet Coke on the side. Ruby Tuesday

52 Photos Project: Summer Treat

Image
Summer treat? The one that springs to mind is the marvelous photo workshop I went to last summer in Venice. It pushed me technically in ways I never imagined. Filled my heart (and stomach). And let me find that my love affair with Venice isn't dependent on being there with the someone  I loved  truly, madly, deeply on my first magical Venice visit. My love for Venice is soul deep. 52 Photos Project .

52 Photos Project: Pushing Through Hesitation

Image
52 Photos Project prompted us to post a photo that we hesitated to take. . . that we had to push through the brain chatter to capture. So here's mine. I was on the shady side of the street in Guanajuato. The wind was plucking at the curtains on this sunny balcony, making the lace dance. And in the shadows, I saw an elderly lady sitting on a chair  between the curtains, watching life pass her by  on the street below. I hesitated -- it seemed like a private moment. What was she thinking? Was she waiting for someone to come and share her silence? For someone to bring her a cool drink on a warm day? But I pushed through the questions and the feeling of intrusion and snapped. Was it only coincidence that  she disappeared from view  a moment later?
