Mona Loldwoman (Look for the good)
Reflecting her world
No tricks, no layers. A reflection in the car window. But ever so fitting to see "her world"
She had sat so patiently while I photographed the reflections in the melting snow pools. When I turned to get back in the car, Wham ! I was surrounded by sunset. They were everywhere. In every car window and storefront window, little glints of red clouds a panorama would not do justice. and my fingers were froze. It didn't get more special than this anyway, atleast not to me.
MONDAY CHALLENGE 1-4-10
For our first challenge of the New Year, let's all give some serious thought to our 1st image of 2010 and let's all post "an "intriguing" first shot taken on or after the New Year has been rung in". So this will narrow our shooting time this week...your first picture (no matter what it turns out to be) has to be taken after midnight on December 31st and by Monday, January 4th when we'll all meet back here to post our first shots of the New Year!

Tell me this can’t be true
I’m not trying to be pretensious , I honestly only knew 2 definitions to this word. ( 4 thru 12 ) I knew you did not want me to go find & photograph thieves, spies,, or someone’s affair. So I had to go find more.
If I’m gonna do that kind of work… I’m gonna share.
