Which way is north?

Moss is said to grow on the north side of a tree.....this one makes it hard to orient oneself.  But there's more moss on the left side, so maybe that's north....  Taken in Seattle's Woodland Park.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"M" is for "meow"

Do cats pray?  Hmmmm.....never thought about it.  But I do know that dogs have a Buddha nature.

Meow!

The fiddler on the bench

Look at all these nice greens and fall shades!  Another archive shot from Seattle.  

Flowers

Another shot from my Seattle archive of a few years back.  Snapped this guy in the bus. Love the flowers on his shirt and guitar case, and matching pink bus transfer!

Happy Easter

Our version of Easter eggs this year!

WEEKEND REFLECTION--parallelograms

The windows are, of course, rectangular, and all rectangles are parallelograms, so....

Light reflected on a couple of them!

SKYWATCH--Comin' down!

I have the haunting feeling I've used this photo before, but I discovered it in a stash of my old photos here on the computer I used while at my daughter's here in Seattle.

Anyway, I always try to imagine the thrill these people experience, not that I would ever want to try parachuting.

Making bracelets

An archive shot for you, from some Seattle photos I found on my daughter's computer that I use while here in Seattle.  Don't know if this artisan I photographed a few years ago is still at the Pike Place Market.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--the stamen

You can tell I have been pretty much housebound here in Seattle, helping my daughter with her new baby.  I pinched a magnolia blossom from the tree in her yard, and here's the stamen and its shadow.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS: In the kitchen window

These orchids are having a look at themselves in the kitchen window.

A taste of 'home'

I'm still in Seattle and won't be back in Serbia for a while, but tonight my daughter and family had guests, so I made Serbian-style stuffed peppers.....yum.  Only two left out of ten. Nine in the photo; # ten couldn't fit in the pot, so it was baked by itself.
