Shadow Play was this week's assignment.  It's been too overcast this week to get good shadows.  So outside was literally out.  Took this one on my sewing table.

 Colors of November.  Yesterday, we had an unusual snow for Kansas.  There wasn't any wind and the snow stuck to everything.  We had 7".  I used this photo in my class because of the contrast.

 The challenge was "purple please".  This is grape jello in a glass bowel over my light table.  I broke my good leaded cut glass bowl trying to mix the jello in it.  Apparently, it can't stand hot.  I mixed the jello and let it cool before I put it in this bowl.

 This week's challenge was happiness is....  Well, happiness is a warm fuzzy on your shoulder.  However, Rex wasn't too happy.

 This week's challenge was "What lies ahead".  I'd say its a very long, long road ahead.

These are the photos from the final showcase at the photo summit in Laveta,Co. 2023


Old Paint


This is a picture for the item "On the fence"  It is cattle skulls on the fence posts.  
   This is my photo for "Minimalist".
  This is the photo for "Impressionist".  It's pond scum on Wahotoya Lake east of LaVeta, Co. 
This is a panorama photo.  It is one of the techniques we learned from Chuck Honeycutt at the summit. 
The one above are star trails.  It was a cloudy night and the photo doesn't show the trails like it should.   It was a technique taught by Warren Lee in an evening.  I do need a cable shutter release to make it easier. 


The photo at right is "Perfect Stranger".  This man comes into LavVeta in the morning and sells long johns and cinnamon rolls on the corner.


 This is the photo for "Wonderful Woods.  It is a stand of aspens on the road up to Up Top,, the ghost town at the old LaVeta pass.
