This one I wanted to show as the thumbnail but could not get it to work for me      ~~~~

I saw this flower in a bed in front of a business in town, do not know the name of it, just thought it was pretty..

Sorry, you many need to use ctrl N to see the last one, after putting in the first time so it needed to be done, then tried to resize and still not small enough w/o ctrl N.

Tree

By BusyB1965 written 7/31/08 7:19 PM, published 7/31/08 7:23 PM

One Sunday morning at church my brother-in-law asked if I had my camera with me--and of course I did--he had just past a group of birds and wanted to to try and take pics of them, this is just one of them...My lonely entry for  Tree  theme...      

 On my way home one night stopped in town and took several pic of the Courthouse , this one is the best of all that I took...

I wasn't able to preview this time, is that normal now?

Thanks for looking...

Bear of a Day

By BusyB1965 written 6/24/08 8:14 PM, published 6/24/08 8:15 PM

 

Yesterday my sister and I were at Cades Cove and we had a great time, saw several deer and for the first time in 30 years saw one of these magnificant animal, I wish you could have seen us on the bank where he was at trying to get the pictures, am not one for being able to hold my camera steady with ease and needless to say this was one of those time but wanted to share this with you.

Sorry, after going back and looking saw that the pics are just a little large, 

Thanks for looking...

What is

By BusyB1965 written 6/6/08 3:22 PM, published 6/6/08 3:26 PM

 

Tried to put in thumbnail pic but did not get it to work for me...

My try at the guessing theme.

what is it 

I had already put the answer to this in comment section before realizing could edit own story several hrs later.

OG was right  with part of his answer when he said it looked like maybe riviting underneath wing of a light plane. Instead of showing underneath the wing of the plane will show the whole plane to maybe get a grasp of the Heavy_plane 

Better know as a Yankee Lady

Blue

By BusyB1965 written 5/6/08 6:29 PM, published 5/6/08 6:29 PM

Here goes my attempt to post after all the changes, hope it goes through.

 Blue bird this bird was made by my brother.

another attempt using Orton 

Old bldg Orton

and  Church_HDR   (blue sky for the theme)--I tried to remove the power lines, just was not able to.  little info on church, the picture was transferred to an iron-on transfer to be put onto a "block" for a center piece in a quilt to be made for a preacher.

Windows

Looking through a glass door from where I work there was this huge  Red Bull just sitting.

After going outside to get a better look and then turning around to go back inside there was  Tank taking a rest.

Out riding around one afternoon last week and found this Covered Bridge with windows.

Enjoy and have a good evening.

Art-Craft

My husband is into making bowls which could possibly be classified as either art or craft--the bowls have not been done justice by me but to see them they are beautiful (to me anyway)..

Survival

By BusyB1965 written 3/27/08 4:52 AM, published 3/27/08 9:12 PM

Like some, I do not have macro--saw this leaf just hanging on and it reminded me of how sometimes we seem to do just that--no matter what is thrown at us we hang on and survive, hoping for better days...~~~

Softness

By BusyB1965 written 3/6/08 7:40 PM, published 3/6/08 7:40 PM

Yesterday attemped my hand at taking pictures of water and trying to get the 'soft' effect.  After downloading noticed that I sure do have a lot of dirty spots so guess that means a little extra work...
