Very GRATEFUL woman!!!
What awesome breathtaking photos!!!! THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos!!! I really have to start paying more attention to the sky around here. It's ususally gray, but sometimes we have some great sunrises especially over Lake Erie. And of course I love your little girl with her friends--how fun!
ReplyDeleteYour little girl is adorable and ready to embrace the whole world. Pictures are beautiful too.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it interesting how we can just make a change in tone and the image looks so much better? I've noticed this with photos, too. I think it's okay, but there's just something amiss..
ReplyDeleteWhat great Sky Photos!!
Great photos Wanda! You live in a gorgeous area.
ReplyDeletethanks for showing us!
EVEN if it weren't a gorgeous area, my painting stud...the sunrises and sunsets, esp. in fall are so magnificent. i am so happy to share them!
ReplyDeleteAll that clear clean color with no effort on our part has reason enought to be thanful. I love that little girls legs, I have been practicing legs, not as hard as hands are for me, I sort of like knobby knees and funny socks, and then the shoes.
ReplyDeleteIt has been so beautiful here 20 degrees above normal so warm and pleasant to do things outside. Even if the trees are bare it is still beautiful.
Oooh, more knobby knees!! LOVE!!! As always, your humor comes shining through in this painting, wanda. Love the words..love the birds, and the little girl..love all of it!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous sky pictures. And, that sure does look like a twister. I've seen a few that looked just like that.
Hey Wanda! Make sure you read my newest post that I put up this morning! ;)
ReplyDeleteWanda,
ReplyDeleteAre you driving and taking pictures again?
That's right up there with talking on your cell phone.

ya' made me laugh carolyn my love...yes i did pull over for these...but i did have a close one the other day, and promised myself to be more careful...i'm not sure what that means, 'cause i got a "choo choo" train shot the other day as it was passing the overhead rails and i was sitting at a red light...ooops, how come all those horns are honking, eesh, it's me, bad bad me...xoxoxo i think i might insert that when i post the pics, although some might not see the humor in it, ESPECIALLY you who have ridden with me...c'mon...lets go catch the rails and leave all this family stress behind!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWanda--you're such a sweetie! Thank you so much for your kind words. Let me tell you--you made my day!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. We're STILL having beautiful weather right through the weekend. You don't understand--that doesn't happen around here!!
Hi Wanda! I found you over at Diane's blog and I am so glad I did! Your photography is amazing! Love these photos! Beautiful work! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your paintings and your beautiful photos. I think we are classmates in Texture Town. I have only done a couple of the lessons, but I do love the class.
ReplyDeleteMagnificent views Wanda! Where do you live? SWEET art - loving those knobby knees and wonderful composition:)
ReplyDeletela la la
