Abstracts
When I took my painting class I wanted to learn how to paint abstracts instead I did some not so good self portraits. Since then I learned how to take abstract pictures instead. The camera is my paintbrush and pixels are my medium.

Almost left my camera home
I had taken so many pictures this week at the ceramic research center, I almost left my camera home. This is what I would have missed.

If I'm flat?
We traveled to Montezuma's Castle this afternoon. At the end of our adventure this bright little guy came to check us out. When we got too close he flattened himself against the rocks trying to pretend to be roadkill. He quickly decided that didn't work so scampered away into the bushes. Totally cracked me up.

Race for the Cure
Time to get ready for the Race for the Cure,
Babies come
Dogs come,
Into a sea of legs ready to march on a Cure for Breast Cancer
A sea of people waiting to start.
Passing the starting line takes about 15-20 minutes.
Welcome to anyone that can move.
Even a car is decked out to bring awareness that early detection raises your chances for survival. I am an 8 year survivor. My dream is someday my grand daughter will ask, "Grandma, what's breast cancer?" Because it won't be around any more.
Join the Race if you can, send your prayers if you can't.

What do you see?
A fellow hiker was watching me take pictures and was curious as to what I was doing. After a minute he saw what I saw, a tiny little finch pecking away in the rocks. He then asked what type it was. I had no idea. I blithely said I would look it up on the internet. That is not as easy as I thought it would be. Anybody know what type of finch this is?

Basket patterns
School is back in full force. Sorry I missed yesterday. In one of my classes I am studying Art history-American Indian Art and culture. Right now we are studying basket weaving. As I walked around the park lake I was astounded to see one of the basket patterns in the water. The article read that they didn't know where some of the patterns came from. The light on the water is similar to one of the patterns they were discussing. I took several pictures and this one looked the most like the basket.

Bad hair day?
Is this the duck's interpretation of a bad hair day? Or a new feather do to out do their country cousins?

Summer sledding
Walking along in the park at over 80 degrees and finding a block of ice is surprising until you realize A. it is at a bottom of a hill, B. the ice is melting and C. you look for the 'path' down the grass where the block of ice had slid. Ice block sledding wrecks havoc on the grass but people enjoy riding the block of ice down the hill.

Surprise
Humming birds wings beat so fast that the human eye can not see. I took multiple pictures and was delighted to find this one. Cameras can stop action in a way that the human eye can not.
