Bubbles

Always liked bubbles and blowing them. Did it a lot more when the grandkids were younger. These bubbles where in themountains a sunset making for the golden color. and it caught images of the back railing. Just Fun.

Blue Sky and Cranes

Have been collecting colorful leaves, these are more subtle but I like them. Enjoy1

Solar Eclipse

The Denver Area was on the edge of the Solar Eclipse Oct 14th, 2023. The sun came into my sunroom thru some leaves and made itiny eclipse shadows on the tile floor. It's fun to see the crescent pattern on the lfloor. Just because!
