Pick a Word(Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #112)

Posted on by Prior...

Hello Readers – I hope everyone is doing well 

I am posting to join in with the lens-artist photo challenge, which has the theme of Choose a Word this week. 

 

Growing

It was growing – but no mas! The peppermint herb is wonderful – but the roots can be so invasive. I also took this photo to pair with a garden analogy – one that talks about how in life we can have certain unchecked areas 

Tangled

 

Not sure if you can tell how tall this wild dandelion weed was – as it was nestled in the tangled brush – but it was really tall (tallest weed I ever saw)
I like the leaf I this photo. Reminded me as to how vibrant and medicinal the dandelion is…

And while on the dandelion topic –

Check out Norah’s post HERE – with some flash fiction about this hearty (and playful) weed. She also has a short video about the physics behind the flight of the dandelion seed.

Check out Forthemo’s dandelion sketch HERE

Exuberant

For some reason, the word exuberant came to mind with this photo. I probably could edit it a little and enrich some areas, but the lines throughout – and the legs of the walkers – felt a bit exuberant

 

Isn’t this a nice walking path? Right along part of the James River in Richmond, VA

 

 

Speaking of Words – check out this page snippet 

This was in an old folder from earlier this year. I cannot remember the author – sorry – but the book was from the 80s and well – I guess I felt inspired to grab a pic of this and today seems a good time to share it.

Okay, thanks for reading and if you want to join in with the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge here are the links:

Oh wait, I have one more photo for the word Growing

 

 

Our new adopted puppy is mostly out of the chewing stage. However, a few pillows have offered some stress relief – lol – because – well he is “growing” after all. (and more pictures of the pup coming soon)

 

Thanks to Linda for this doggie doorbell comic

    1. Hi Norah – I wonder what it is too – and maybe a nice little fiction idea could unfold – but it was just chance photo grabbing – t have their legs all lined up = 🙂

  3. Ah, words, where would be without them? LOL! Great pics! I know I shouldn’t have chuckled when I saw your pillow but I can now since it just brings back memories of exuberant puppies! Happy Sunday!

  5. LOL for the wireless doorbell Yvette, even if it isn’t yours :-). Also loved the text snippet which is so appropriate for today’s emotional climate. Of your images, the walkers were my favorite this week!

  6. Very creative set of photos, Yvette. I was particularly taken by the one of the walkers – those lines of the sketches are a good counterpoint to the unison of the people’s legs, which look as though they’re marching.

  7. Love that last picture because those of us who have had puppies — and loved them — were happy to see them grow out of the chewing phase. Other photos are terrific as well, especially those first growing ones.

  10. That walkway along the St. James River was unusual wasn’t it? I liked all the photos and will look forward to puppy pics now that it is safe to have pillows around again. 🙂
