photo challenge -cold is for the birds

Sure, I'd love to be posting gorgeous spring photos, but as they say, winter is for the birds!  It's April, but it's snowing in Nebraska so I figured I might as well go with my favorite winter bird:  Mr. Penguin.  He always looks a little cranky just like me and he walks wide.  Again...

Photo challenge - Black and White

Artistic wonders - I snapped this one at Artsarben here in Nebraska.  I am always amazed at the talent of others.  Definitely something to be respected.

August Photo Challenge Day #28 - Look Up

Day #28 - Look up!  One of the benefits of living in Bellevue is getting to watch the air show from my lawn chair.  Gotta love the feeling of Top Gun flying overhead.

August Photo Challenge - Day #12 - Freedom

Day #12 - Freedom.  I know there are more things I could have done with this theme, but being a girl living in a military community, I couldn't help but use this picture.  It's one of the many I take at the Veteran's Day parade every year.  Bruce Springsteen had it right - born in the USA!  And very thankful so many people fight for my freedom every day.

August Photo Challenge Day #6 - Change

Day 6 - Change.  I struggled with this one, but right now, the corn in the Midwest is changing quickly.  The drought has taken its toll, and farmers are dealing with the fall-out.  Although I no longer have to worry about the corn crop, there's something about a field of corn that brings me the peacefulness of home.
