Cherie Takes Pictures

Dead

2009-07-12T10:06:00.002-04:00

I've decided I should participate in these memes when a theme makes me think of a particular photo I've taken. This is one I never thought I'd have an excuse to post!

Park

2009-06-15T00:34:00.002-04:00

This bandstand can be found in the town square of the place where I grew up in Ohio.

Coin

2009-06-14T09:26:00.001-04:00

I think of the contents of this pig bank as my life savings.

School

2009-06-14T09:01:00.002-04:00

This is the old Beulah School in Greene County, Pennsylvania.

Soccer practice on the campus at the University of North Carolina.

Light

The sun getting ready to hide behind the trees at Riverside Cemetery.

Monochrome

It's been over a month since I participated in a photo meme. I've decided to try to stop being so lazy. Here's my submission to this week's Photo Friday, clouds from a coming storm, taken about a month ago.

Wildlife

2009-05-08T01:29:00.001-04:00

The wildlife comes up onto our patio here in the suburbs!

Spring

2009-05-08T00:09:00.002-04:00

Tulips from last month on the grounds at the State Capitol in Raleigh.

Six

Six seagulls sitting on six posts.

Food

2009-05-07T23:41:00.001-04:00

From last St. Patrick's Day, my plate of corned beef and cabbage!

Order-Chaos

2009-05-07T23:20:00.002-04:00

Arranging flowers to look so random sure takes a lot of practice and thought.

Reflective

2009-05-07T23:06:00.002-04:00

From the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher, this alligator is reflected in the water while I imagine him reflecting on what he might do if he could get a hold of one of the people gawking at him and his companions!

Height

2009-05-03T12:51:00.002-04:00

Taken from the base of the Confederate Memorial on the grounds of the State Capitol in Raleigh, I had to tilt the camera to get it's entire height in the shot!

Blue

2009-05-03T12:42:00.000-04:00

Some things with blue on my desk.

Fire

2009-05-03T12:22:00.002-04:00

From my last birthday. We've been using that RIP candle since my 40th birthday, can you guess how long ago that was?

Steps

2009-05-02T16:46:00.001-04:00

It was nice of them to build this stairway from the strip-mall into our complex's parking lot!

How Have You Been?

2009-05-02T08:13:00.002-04:00

This is what I was doing on the day I got my camera back this week! I am feeling pretty good, "Thank you, Canon!"

Casual

2009-05-01T09:54:00.003-04:00

My new tennis shoes on the day I brought them home. I am picky, why is is so hard to find a simple pair of white shoes with a neutral trim? These are perfect, my favorite brand, they're walkers, the trim is very subtle and I paid about $35 dollars for them!

Communication

2009-05-01T09:43:00.002-04:00

Here's John taking an online seminar at our kitchen table a couple weeks ago. And, yes, those are cat footprints on the lid of his laptop!

Experimental

2009-04-29T21:44:00.004-04:00

Well, I got my camera back from Canon today after sending it to them to be repaired, and one of the first things I did was start snapping shots of everything around my house! I guess you could call this photo of the screen saver on my computer "experimental", but I'm not sure I can call it a successful experiment

Water

2009-04-29T20:59:00.002-04:00

I was bored the last time I took my car thru the automatic car wash, so I started taking pictures of the soap and then the water on my windows. This is what it looked like after the wax cycle!

Wide-Narrow

2009-04-29T19:56:00.002-04:00

The "Mile High Swinging Bridge" at Grandfather Mountain is a narrow path across a wide span!

Frightened

2009-04-27T10:44:00.003-04:00

This is Midnight just minutes after he returned from his 17 day adventure into the great outdoors last fall! He calmed down and came to sit with us on the couch about 15 minutes later.

Dark

2009-04-26T10:42:00.000-04:00

Just before sunrise a few weeks ago.
