This is part and parcel of my journey through life, as seen through my eyes, heart and mind. Scary I know!!- Hopefully this Blog will allow us to Learn & LAUGH, as well as to THINK and QUESTION: Who we are, Where we are heading and Who we are becoming- Join in on my journey?....... Or Not!
GOD BLESS AMERICA; AMERICA, BLESS GOD!
It may be a shabby soccer ball, well worn, but it matches the ground perfectly and overall the shot is a wonderful balance of autumnal colors! Not to mention the aptness of its position vis a vis the sun!
Hi John, just to let you know you have been chosen as one of the winners of our silver wedding anniversary caption competition, if you'd like to stop by Pen and Paper for the details.
That is one shabby soccer ball! But the shadows are strong!
ReplyDeleteHave a good one John!
Loving the second shot, specially the placement of the ball.

Margaret- Than you very much! It actually is a neat contrast with the leaves and acorns! Thank goodness I had time to move!
I actually got several shots that I should have posted showing different shadow angles on the ball!
You are very kind with your comment!
Happy Holidays.

I love the composition in the first shot. The second one kinda scares me a little bit! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a very well-loved soccer ball. Or one that is made of cement.
