We went to the lake with friends...
We live close to several TVA lakes and this is one of the towers for the dam. I obviously played around with the color in Photoshop, but what I really couldn't get over was the size of these chains - huge - which just doesn't translate through the lens.
Seven hours later we watched the sunset on the lake - beautiful
This was one view of a project I worked on this week-end
Peter was leaving for work and called me out to look at the sunrise - spectacular! And am I the only one who sees the bottom 2/3's of Africa? See the horn? Made me miss it a bit (but not the trip to get there!)
And even though we're working on fall here in the mountains, my roses are blooming in full force - I never get tired of looking at them (or trying to capture their beauty with the camera)
Oooh, you have great captures this week too! Love the barn...and the sunset is gorgeous! Also love the sunrise (and so wish I was ever anywhere close to seeing one but we are in a bowl here in town with all the houses around and it's cloudy all the time lately -- yeah, enough whining!). And the sunset with the trees DEFINITELY looks like Africa! Love it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is that first sunset picture. The clouds have so much texture! Nice work. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the sunset and the glasses and the flower... okay, so they are ALL great :D Fun shots!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! Love, love the abstractness of the glass photo! And yes, I totally see Africa.
ReplyDeleteI love every single one of your captures. The colors in the first one are great. And congrats on making an otherwise boring tower look very interesting. The sky shot is just perfect!
ReplyDeleteThose are just beautiful shots!

ReplyDeleteHow awesome that your guy called you out to share the beautiful sunrise and then you caught such a beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteAll the photos are great but I guess I'm really partial to that rose. I looks so fresh and close I can almost smell it.
Nice pictures! Now I'm going to have to check out your project!
ReplyDeleteLove the sky pictures! The colors, the clouds swept across the sky. Beautiful.
