Such is the passage of time.

🇬🇧 In this Tuscan alley, silence walks ahead of the sun.

The slow step of an anonymous figure slips between warm walls and flowered names. “Il Girasole” — the sunflower — offers a subtle nod to light, just a word at eye level.

A simple, nearly forgotten scene, yet precious — like a sunbeam in shadow.

🇫🇷 Dans cette ruelle toscane, le silence précède le soleil.

Le pas lent d’une silhouette anonyme glisse entre les murs chauds et les noms fleuris. Il Girasole, discret clin d’œil à la lumière, n’est plus qu’un mot à hauteur de regard.

Une scène simple, presque oubliée, mais précieuse — comme un rayon dans l’ombre.

Thanks for looking.

This will be Fred's first 52 weeks project. Although he did show up a lot in Aggie's and Eva's projects last year, he has yet to have more than a supporting role.

For those unfamiliar with Fred - he is a very handsome golden retriever almost puppy of 10 months old. What he lacks in self control, he more than makes up in cuteness. He can often be found with various parts of Agnes (tail, hind leg, and head) in his mouth. On her part Agnes is quite tolerant. She does like him, but will only actively wrestle about 30% of the time that Fred wants to. Eva tolerates less of his shenanigans.

This is going to be a different project for me as he does not excel in being a minimum focal length away and "stay" is not his strongest command.

I've collected a few strawberries that the critters didn't eat from the plant our neighbors gave us when we moved in last summer.

I'm ready for Fall weather.

Morning light from window. I liked the way the light caught part of the watch, and tried various apertures for fun, trying not to blow the highlights.

A big hug on New Years Day. Just another number. Alone is how I spent mine. Watch some TV, work on some pictures and I am feeling a cold so that did not make me feel festive.

I think I prefer this one. You?

I always love a shot on a window sill. The light is almost always good.

Continuing on the theme of "how did my puppy get this big"?

This chair is apparently the best dog spot in the cabin. Perfectly situated next to a window with good squirrel viewing options. And often with a donut dog bed on it. The only problem is that it is not quite big enough for Fred.

Thanks for looking.

Thinking about frames and lines

On the kitchen counter , tiny!!

Found these facts, though I totally agree with their similar leaf pattern and that they are both ancient plants

The maidenhair tree or ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) is said to be named after this group of ferns because of the similarity of leaf shape. However, the ginkgo is a conifer tree, and is not related to the maidenhair ferns.

Thanks Explore!

Taking 5, just to relax and enjoy a cup of tea

The bears really love sitting on the window sill.

This week I'm working with window light. My inspiration was a book I loved as a child called The Lonely Doll. All the illustrations are black and white photographs. I made the puppet a couple of years ago and just need to pose him He's wishing he could go out and play.
