The sprinklers went off last night for the first watering of the season. We all walk on and by lawns every day and I would daresay rarely if ever stop to notice the beauty that lies therein. Therefore I would argue that grass is a mundane subject to capture so I hopefully was able to successfully complete the theme of "Giving the mundane its beautiful due."
The funny thing is I feel like half of my photostream consists of mundane objects so I don't know why I'm struggling to find more of them this week.

I'm going to go out on a limb here (seewhatididthere?) and say that it's about time to buy a new pair of jeans.
Such a shame too, these were the comfiest jeans in the universe :(
I took this during this evening's golden hour and struggled with whether I should go with the monochrome. In the end I decided the B&W image was stronger than the color version. These are just some lights I have strung around some trees in my yard.
These flycatchers are spring and summer-time visitors to West Texas. Sure wish that branch wasn't in front of her.
Thanks everyone for the faves and nice comments!
sixth in the series of family portraits, the orange family came in next for a sitting: mom, dad, their 5 children, and also included were aunt kitty, grandpa joe, and their ginger cat tigger.
108/365 aDaD "a duck a day" day97
the album is here:
For Day 97 of 365, FGR "Tissues" day, TRP "Flickr in the real world: Instant Fave" day, TRF and lyrics.
Today's random fact: When I was 2, I climbed up on the stove, turned on all the burners and danced on them. Bad idea. I can now tickle my own feet, but they aren't ticklish otherwise. I can also walk on hot surfaces longer than most people, and absolutely hate having socks on.
Oh, and this photo is filled with hidden meanings and messages. I'm sure some will recognize them instantly. Others will never be found by anyone probably.

"If You're Gonna Leave" by Emerson Hart
Maybe I'm the joker
Maybe I'm the fool in your eyes
Maybe I'm the weak one
Maybe I'm a lie in disguise
Maybe I'm angry
Cause I'm the one who's always wrong
Maybe I'm not the one who's so strong
But did you think about it
Did you pull it in and pull out
Could you live without me
Did you ever really have a doubt
But do you understand it, baby
When you say it's over, it's done
Maybe I'm not the one
So if you're gonna leave
Yeah, you better get going
Cause I ain't wasting no more time
On what you did and what you didn't
So if you're gonna leave
Yeah, you better start running
Cause I ain't wasting no more time
On what might have been
We can stand on reason
We can fight about all the things
This isn't for forever
This is more than a wedding ring
But do you understand it baby
When you say it's over, it's done
Maybe I'm not the one
So if you're gonna leave
Yeah, you better get going
Cause I ain't wasting no more time
On what I did and what I didn't
So if you're gonna leave
Yeah, you better start running
Cause I ain't wasting no more time
Whoa did it happen again
The things that you wanted
for being a friend
How did it happen again
Just look onward, baby
cause some day you might need a friend
So if you're gonna leave
Yeah, you better get going
Cause I ain't wasting no more time
On what we did and what we didn't
So if you're gonna leave
Yeah, you better start running
Cause I ain't wasting no more time
On what might have been

This is London Bridge tube station on the Jubilee Line. It is one of the more modern stations on the London Underground. It is on the same line as this photo from last week.

I decided to make my outtake from yesterday my intake as it seemed to get more positive comments than the photo I had chosen.
back from a grey, rainy NY! Here we are on the west side. <3
I think I want to redo this picture when I'm wearing a fitted black cocktail dress and heels. :)

Yay, another water drop shot. I hope people won't scowl or anything. Are we cool?
Today I ate cereal in a mug. It was heaven.
Anyway, tomorrow will be an exciting day 'cause it's... HALLOWEEN! :D Quite fast, eh? I know, most of people on Flickr are like in the other side of the world, so yeah. hahaha. I won't be putting on a costume though. boooooo. ): but in exchange, I'll be taking a lot of photos! :D

We were driving back from doing some groceries in the evening and the sky was absolutely crazy. On fire in one spot, tornado-like in another, dark blue elsewhere. Unfortunately, the sky is fickle. There was no time to go home, unload groceries, grab my DSLR camera, and then go back to shoot this. So the best camera, as they say, is the one you have with you. In my case, my iPhone 6s Plus. I think it did a decent job despite its limitations. Nevertheless, I like to joke that the best camera is the one you left at home. 😂

Can you believer that I totally forgot to take a picture today.
Thought about it at the last minute.....what to shoot? what to shoot?
Glad the theme was mundane....study of light and lines on my Bahama's beach visor.
eliminated some things that were making me unhappy.
Inspired in some way by This & This.
Thank you so much Jacqueline for the testimonial. You just too amazing for words :D
P.S. im off the my grandma's house for the weekend & she doesnt have the internet :( so i'll post my 365 late on sunday night..or monday morning.
Under my wings, you’ll stop asking why
Under my wings, you’ll see the world in a positive light
Under my wings, you can dream freely
Under my wings, you’ll come to realize what to hold on to and what to let go
You want to dance with the angels?
Then come dance with me :)
Happy Gorgeous Green Thursday!
