Blackout

Since it's the last "official" day of the 30 Day Photo Challenge III, I thought it fitting to dress up.

The 30 Day Photo Challenge has been a blast.  I've learned so much and made some new friends.  I almost sorry to see it end...

The City

If you ever have the opportunity to travel to Cinque Terre in Italy, do it!  Five villages located on the rugged Ligurian Sea coastline.  (Monterosso al Mare, Vernaazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore.)  Hiking paths, trains and boats connect the villages.  Cars cannot reach them from the outside.  Starting at Monterosso al Mare, we hiked through the five villages to Riomaggiore.  The hike took us about 4-1/2 hours.  We decided to take the train back to Monterosso al Mare.   It was a great experience.

Autumn

Here in SW Florida, we don't get much seasonal change in foliage - at least not like in the colder parts of the country.

This photo was taken while vacationing in Croatia.  We enjoyed beautiful autumn weather there!

M&M's Cafe

I immediately thought "candy" when I heard M&Ms.  No longer true since I discovered this cafe located in Tin City in Naples, FL.  Now I think "great burgers" when I hear M&Ms!

Riding the Fence...

Sometimes making art is hard - especially when my muse has left the building.  Fear can keep me from making a decision - what if it's wrong?!   Then again it may be the perfect choice.   Taking the time to make samples helps.  Letting whimsy take over is not a bad thing either.  Note to self:  am I'm over-thinking, over-reacting, or...?

Time for me to stop riding on NEUTRAL.  Make a decision - right or wrong - and get off the fence!

Broken Home...

No longer inhabitable, this BROKEN home has been abandoned and forgotten...somewhere in Nova Scotia.
