Here are this week’s prompts: Perspective, Golden, Bloom, Dark and Local. And here are my efforts.
I decided to use this definition of
PERSPECTIVE: a state of existing in
space before the eye. We were down at
our neighborhood beach on Friday and I asked our friend Bob to hold still while
I took this picture. Good guy that he
is, he did what I asked. In his
sunglasses, I could see what existed in the space before Bob’s eyes. I think that’s kind of cool.
This is a koi from a local restaurant Zorba’s
where we go occasionally for lunch. Now
that the weather is nice, they open their pleasant outdoor area and you can sit
next to this lovely koi pond. I’m not a
big fan of fish but I think these are very pretty. He’s like an overgrown GOLD(EN) fish.
It was Ralph Waldo Emerson who said, “What is a
weed? A plant whose virtues have never
been discovered.” Most people consider
the dandelion a weed, but I like its cheery yellow demeanor and love it when
they turn to seed. The dandelion is a
BLOOM that I enjoy.
Here is one of the newest residents of our
neighborhood. His name is Maverick and
he may be DARK but that doesn’t mean he isn’t sweet and friendly. Welcome, Maverick!
We are so lucky that this scene is within a five
minute walk from our front door. This is
LOCAL for us.

Dandelions do have their appeal - unless yours is the only yard among well groomed yards speckled in yellow - ack! Neat reflective shot, and Mavrick looks like a nice fella. And what a view - so jealous.
Wow! I love that perspective shot!! Maverick is adorable..what a great addition to the neighborhood!
Fantastic photos:) Greetings

Great set, I do like to photograph dandelions, I just don't like them growing in my yard,. I do hope Olive and Maverick become fast friends!!
Very nice set.
I enjoyed them very much.
Very cool shot for Perspective, great idea.
Loved the Handsome Dog in Dark
and the awesome view for Local.
All I can say is WOW!
Lorelei, my granddaughter would for sure agree with you about the dandelion. I happened to mention trying to kill them in front of her and I thought she was going to start crying. I quickly promised to leave them alone.
