Not so fast...Truly
How cool is this - a 1950 Chevy Fastback. On my way home from DeLand FL, I saw this beauty sitting in a parking lot. Nothing would do but to turn around and take some pictures. I added the sky and the photo of the N. Florida sign post which I found while walking around DeLand.

Reflections....
Boats at The Dock on Naples Bay. I love reflections on the water - don't you?

I espied these cane-like sticks sitting in a container at "The Little Traveler" shop in Geneva IL. Luckily, I had my camera with me and took a few shots. If you look closely, you can see my reflection in the knobs.

Picket Fences
I love picket fences. I've always wanted to have one surround my house - but alas this is not allowed in my neighborhood!
This photo was taken in Arcadia, FL a couple of months ago.

Chillin'
This week Truly is taking life easy - a well deserved rest after the excitement of the Olympic games.
One photo, framed and duplicated (twice) stacked atop each other - adds depth to the composition.

Don't Look Down!
Is there anything quite as unattractive as bowling shoes? My daughter, granddaughters and I went bowling last week. It was fun - but those shoes - oh my!
I brought my camera and a little tripod with me. As you can imagine, I caused quite a stir when I set the camera up and knelt down on the floor to look through the view finder!

We actually had to leave a deposit and one of our street shoes as security. Seriously, can you imagine wanting to steal these beauties?!

Truly Brings Home the Gold
Truly is proud to help bring home gold.
I enjoyed every minute of the time I spent watching the olympic games. Congratulations to all the athletes from every country who participated. You can be sure that we are proud of you and your accomplishments. The old adage "it's not whether you win or lose, but how you played the game" is true! Truly and I are looking forward to seeing you again in four years!

Truly Takes A Dive
Truly is participating for the first time in the Olympic games. Everyone is excited.
As you can imagine, it was a bit of a chore for Truly to get up the diving board steps.

The crowd holds its breath as Truly jumps gracefully into the air...
Be careful now, Truly - no belly flops allowed - the whole world is watching...
No worries - Truly makes hardly a ripple entering the water. The crowd is on its feet cheering wildly. Surely Truly will score a perfect 10. Keep your fingers crossed!
Combination of my original photos: local water park diving board, sky, ocean (smoothed out and color enhanced), and, of course, the 1962 Chrysler Imperial.
