I’ve always had mixed feelings about graffiti. Sometimes I love it and sometimes I hate it. Sometimes it’s beautiful and adds something to the environment, but sometimes it’s just destructive and ugly. I’d like to see graffiti have a proper place in society instead of being criminal activity, but I don’t think it should be…
I find water, rocks and cactus to be very natural abstract forms. Water is always intriguing, changing form and affecting everything it touches. Rocks are just amazing in the diversity of shape, size, color and texture that they come in. And cactus are just mystifying. What a strange world we live in; it’s all abstract…
The future is only a figment of imagination, it is not real until it becomes the present. Most of my past imaginations of the future have become a reality, although slightly different from what I might have thought at the time. Now, as I envision the path ahead I create it – with room for…
On my trip west last Fall, one of my favorite parts was viewing the sunsets. Especially in southern New Mexico and Arizona where these photos were taken. It seemed like there was never a place to stop, so these photos were taken with my phone while my daughter (or her now husband) were driving. My…

I had to really stretch myself on this one this week. How do I take a photo that shows optimism? Do I have a photo in my files that expresses optimism? Essentially at my core I am an optimistic person, but I have to admit that I get blue sometimes. There are plenty of issues…
My biggest creative challenge is organization. Let’s face it, I’m a mess.I just don’t have a certain type of organizational skill – you know, the kind that files things in a systematic way.
Did you ever play this game, “Grandma’s Bag” when you were a kid? It goes something like this, “My Grandma’s going on a trip and I helped her pack her bag. I put a _________ in her bag.” The next person says the same thing but adds another object. It goes around the circle with…
Boundaries are good when they protect things from harm. There were many boundaries on our trip west that helped us feel safe or kept others safe. To see more photos on Boundaries go to: The Daily Post/photochallenge/boundaries
