Hunter ~ My Cat


My Cat~ Hunter


We adopted Hunter about 5 years ago.  Someone moved out of a house in the neighborhood and left him behind.  When we took him in he looked like a kitten he was so skinny.  Now he is a very plump happy, especially since he became an inside cat about a year ago.

Sunglare

 


So I did not keep up with the photo challenge like I wanted to. Life got to crazy busy! So I am going to look for a new one or create my own. This is a shot from today. Last night while walking I saw the old tractor. It had some cool features on it and I knew I wanted to photograph it but was so tired that I did not go back with my camera. I thought it would still be there in the morning~~NOT!!! Oh well, you snooze you lose. So i got this shot instead.

March Photo Challenge ~ Day 14 Something from My Front Yard




Day 14
Something from My Front Yard


I love when I get surprised when taking photos.  I wanted to take a picture of this yard ornament.  I wanted a close up picture but you could see my reflection in the glass, which I did not want.  So I backed up and zoomed in.  I love the reflection in the glass now, I love how you can see the fluffy clouds and the trees.  I got a few shots before even noticing the little lizard on it ~ suprpise.  They blend in so much you can miss them easily if your not paying attention.
I can remember coming to Florida to visit when my daughter was about 12 and how much fun she had trying to catch them.  Never did I think I would be living here now.  Sometimes it is awesome and sometimes I miss home so much it hurts. But this time of year in Florida ~ is perfect.  Warm days and Cool nights.  

March Photo Challenge Day 2 Water






Day 2
Water

This is a photo of the fountain at the entrance of my complex.  I did not go there to take a picture of the fountain, as nice as it is, I went to take a picture of the flowers on the trellis~ they are incredible!!!  But once there I saw the fountain and immediately the Day 2 Water came to me.  I love the color blues with the water.  






If I had not allowed my mind to think of something else besides the beautiful pink begonia's then I would not thought of the water fountain.
If you don't open your mind to other __________ you may miss___________!!!!
Keep an Open Mind!

March Photo Challenge Day 11 Clock



Day 11
Clock

My favorite clock.  It is big and colorful and has the old worn look to it.  This challenge may have been a little to easy for me but it is what I like.  And since I did not go out of the house this day except for walks ~ this is it.
