“Quick Anna. Get my phone. Take pictures for me” we rolled down her window.
I’d picked her up at cross country practice about four. On the way home the Ohio landscape was reminiscent of Van Gogh’s Wheat Fields and Cypresses to me but I was driving. Anna kept shooting. Thanks Anna for capturing the scene.
I loved the addition of the bright school crossing sign
From the top floor of a hospital parking lot. Columbus, Ohio. Jack (12) texted me his photograph from this vantage point. You know it pleases me when a grandchild sees something, takes a photograph and sends it to me. I told him he is honing his eye. He asked me, is that good? Yes, it is.
Guest photographer is granddaughter Maura (10). The neighbor’s trash.
Silent Sunday-
photographed by grandson Jack, 12.
We were headed over the Rankin Bridge on our way to the Waterfront. It started to rain while the sun was out. I pulled into the Rivers of Steel parking lot when the rainbow appeared. We walked across the wet grass and I gave Maura my phone and she captured the rainbow!
That’s the Monongahela River and the structure is Carrie Furnace a National Historic Landmark

This is a collaborative guest post by two wonderfully creative women who have been friends since forever.
Colleen and Joanne hail from Nova Scotia. Joanne, living in Florida, collected the photos and good information about Colleen and her love of colorful quilting.
Get to know Colleen and her colorful quilts-
Colleen says “I have a huge stash of fabric that I like to look at for inspiration. Some I have had for many years and almost everything was purchased in the US. I order online occasionally but it gets expensive with taxes, customs and shipping and delivery to Canada can take a long time – so much for instant gratification! Currently Florida is my “go to” shopping locale because I’m there at least once a year. Found a great quilt shop in St. Augustine” http://www.beesquiltshop.com
Here is Colleen, looking to the sun.
My granddaughter Anna (15) is guest blogger today.
She photographed these alpacas at the Smith Mountain Lake Farm in Virginia last weekend.
She said the alpacas are nice and don’t spit at you like llamas They are like dogs. Plus they poop in the same place everytime..
Anna, thanks for sending the photos.
Sunday afternoon, some of the family went to the Alum Creek Dam to take the Airedales for a walk.
My grandson Michael took this photo of the rainbow he saw. I asked him to text it to me for the blog.
My last night in Ohio.
Friday evening. Anna caught Sunset in the mirror. Columbus, Ohio. She’s the guest blogger today.
Maura took this first shot with the iPhone, focusing through the tower viewer (a quarter inserted in the slot)
I thought it was a creative idea
