WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – COLOR

For this week’s challenge, I‘d love to use all the colorful spring flowers growing hither and yon, BUT THERE AREN’T ANY!  Well hardly any.  This forced me to go on a color treasure hunt.  Spring will pop electric soon enough – I suppose.  Here’s a mix of some of last year’s flowers and a few other items out of the crayon box.

CEE’S FUN FOTO CHALLENGE – LINES

When I think “lines”, I think straight lines.  After debating a while, I decided I would go with “straight” because if I didn’t, I’d be too tempted to annoy you with more of my doodling.   So  here, for the most part, you will find my interpretation of “lines” for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week.

Waiting for spring

double lines of railing

Seahorse resting against lines of sea grass

Lines along a trail

Ladder lines in an aquarium at the Aquarium

Rail and deck lines – and man and best friend

Line of trees

Intersecting umbrella lines

Escalator lines above a line of fountains

Lines on a deck table – ALSO waiting for SPRING!

TRAVEL THEME – GREEN

There are oh so many shades of green.  Ailsa, @ wheresmybackpack has asked that we display a shade or two.  Of course this time of year, you think green, you think St. Patrick’s Day.

Even the Adventure Aquarium in Camden, NJ is in on showing their green.

Now I’m Italian, but what they say is everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day.  So, to all my “fellow Irishmen and women”, Happy St. Patrick’s day!

I don’t think this fella’s Irish either, but I could be wrong.

CEE’S FUN FOTO CHALLENGE – RED AND WHITE

I have two very awesome and adorable children in my charge five days a week. Last Friday, along with my son, we drove over to Adventure Aquarium in Camden, NJ. We saw turtles and jellies, a giant, graceful hippo and a tiny poisonous frog. But the one critter we saw that fit Cee’s challenge was this beautiful red starfish. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an actual star smack dab in the middle of a starfish. Am I leading a sheltered, earthbound life, or is this unusual? Whether it’s unique or it’s an every day under the sea inhabitant, I think it’s a real looker. 🙂

For an adventure of your own, head on over to Cee’s blog and browse a little more of the red and/or white.
