Willy-Nilly Friday Five - June 17, 2016

Happy Friday!

Joining Tanya (Around Roanoke) today for,
WILLY-NILLY FRIDAY FIVE


1.  I haven't shared this photo yet for the 52 Frames project that I've been participating in.  This one is for the challenge, DOF (Depth of Field).

The link above takes you to that album where you can see some amazing photos.

2. Sharing this photo taken last month of one of the Indian dancers costumes at the Return to the River Salmon festival that Coleen and I attended.



3.  Yesterday's Good Fences post was all about cats & fences.  Coleen complained that I hardly ever share photos of dogs so while we were out walking I snapped a photo of this little dog in someone's yard.  Love that crooked smile it has.
 


4.  Also while out on that same walk I snapped some Yellow Yarrow growing in someone's garden.  It's another of the DOF shots that I was practicing on.


5.  Last night Coleen and I took a short walk down to the school as I wanted a clear view (no power lines) of the pretty pink clouds that were in the sky.  This is one of them.


6. Bonus Shot - Another of the 52 Frames challenges that I haven't shared.  This one was for: Negative Space.  My hubby was doing some welding and I decided to capture the sparks from the gun.  I love how it turned out although as far as the "negative space" it could have been a bit better.


Have a great day and enjoy the weekend.

  8. Brilliant photos Ida, each one great to see. Thank you so much for leaving a comment. I did actually get your other one, but I am late moderating this week. Don't have a lot of computer time but am trying to catch up now. If you don't see your comment it usually means my time is extra busy but I will publish as soon as I can. Have a great weekend.

  16. Wow, that 'bonus' shot of the welding is absolutely terrific. Of course I'm a cat lover so the cats photos are always a treasure...but I must admit the doggie is so darned cute.

    LOVE the sky.

  22. You have such a good eye for composition and color and finding interest in what others might see as ordinary. I so enjoy your photography. These are great shots. Of course, I love the dog photo. Beautiful sunset and flowers, and the welding sparks photo is superb!

  23. Very cool post! Love each picture...but the welding one was very interesting!! I loved it! My Tom was a welder, so makes sweet memories!

  24. Gosh what super photos - every one a winner. I love the yellow yarrow. I wonder how slug-resistant it is. I've been nursing some lupins - I love lupins SO much, only to have 2 of my 3 plants devoured by slugs. They just mowed them off leaving a stalk where the wonderful flowers should have been. I'm so disappointed. All the best, Bonny
