Thou Shall Not Covet Thy Neighbor's Berries

These berries are on the bushes in front of my neighbors house. They are so bright and cheerful. I love looking across the street to see them. So I asked if I could come photograph them. Right after that is snowed. Even better! Bright red berries with snow!

Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbor's Berries

O Come to the Church in the Wildwood

Photobucket

There’s a church in the valley by the wildwood,
No lovelier spot in the dale;
No place is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.

Refrain

Come to the church in the wildwood,
Oh, come to the church in the dale,
No spot is so dear to my childhood,
As the little brown church in the vale.

I know this church isn't brown or in the wildwood. It's just down rt. 220. But it still made me think of this old hymn.

For my Dad

This is a copy of the camera my grandmother, my dad's mother had. She used to take pictures of my dad as a little boy with this camera. It actually folds up to fit in a pocket! The US patent is from 1902 to 1913.

A beautiful Fall Day

When I looked out the front window first thing this morning I saw this hot air balloon. It certainly was a beautiful morning for a balloon ride.
Going Up


Then later in the afternoon we got a lot of leaves up. And by we I mean mostly Steve:)

More Vintage Fun

Still having fun playing with vintage actions and texture layers
in photoshop. I think this will be the last of my daisies for
this season as it is supposed to get cold soon. I have loved
my gerberas this summer.

Vintage Farm Equipment

I've been having some fun using textures and some vintage actions.
