The first image is a red rose blossom and buds captured at the Fullerton Arboretum in California. The second is a yellow dahlia in blossom at the Bellevue Botanical Gardens in Washington.
This is one of the many falls I photographed in eastern Australia. Despite Australia’s being described as a flat and dry continent, I saw abundant water tumbling from high places into deep gorges. To see more of today’s creative images, visit Leanne Cole Photography.
Today’s challenge theme is Season and I chose this first image to send to Leanne for the challenge. To see all of the creative entries in the challenge, visit Leanne Cole Photography.
The second image, taken in the same location in Colorado, is also monochromatic in appearance. I processed both images for a light, high key look.
This is the first of many images I will post from my recent trip to Australia. It is from the first state I visited, Tasmania. It rained on the walk up to this lookout over the bay and the weather naturally encouraged me to think in monochrome! The image is composed of two shots, overlapped and stitched together. I’m glad to be participating in Leanne’s weekly challenge again and I appreciate so much that she took such care in showing my husband and me around in Melbourne and on the Great Ocean Road.

I shot this a few years ago while in Ireland. The bridge, located near Galway in western Ireland, was featured in the movie The Quiet Man starring John Wayne.
Shells deposited by retreating tides dot the seashore and may appear carelessly strewn….
but at the same time, artfully arranged.
Not only a quiet lake in the midst of the emerald hills for which Ireland is known, Lough Gur and its surrounding area comprise an important archaeological site. The surrounding area abounds with vestiges of human habitation going back 3,000 years. These include ring forts, a hill fort, grange stones, crannogs, and a tower house.
