What is happening here?
Thematic Photographic and our theme this week is
WHITE.......Yes you read that as whitely as I could write it! If you want to play along bring your white photos, since Carmi from Written Inc. who hosts this fun Thematic Photographic mentioned he's a bit uneasy about shooting white....and he's quite eager to see what we can bring to the WHITE show!
So if you want to let your own white shine upon us go here

My first WHITE photo is of a charming Post Office not too far away.....and hopefully it doesn't get the axe! Please save snail mail!

This Post Office in Castle Rock is definitely painted a bright white...although some of the other whites may have a different point of view....a lot of white going on here.....even the car is white! |
"A friendship can weather most things and thrive in this soil; but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often."

White is a challenge to capture honestly.....especially depending on the light you're shooting in.....Just for TP I shot one photo of a very bright white car this morning (taken from inside the garage!)
 |
A shot by morning light of white is such a delight- but cries of more than white...
Hmmm, looks like a good trunk to pack away all those white things like Carmi mentioned .... they say we shouldn't wear after Labor Day, I too, wonder who they are?!
A dose of afternoon sunshine can change the color of any white car sitting inside the garage
Now it's almost showing it's true color!..but still not the real color yet...
Should we try the outside?
Because what doesn't shine a bit more with a little more light on the white subject?
Yep, I told you it was a bright white!
Moving along to another day filled with fluffy cotton balls...
I'm a dreamer. I have to dream and reach for the stars, and if I miss a star then I grab a handful of clouds. - Mike Tyson
and while we're on the subject of white as our theme.....let's not forget about the clothes we wear....
Yes! He's wearing the Clorox shirt!...on his right, she surely doesn't use Clorox, (or the lady behind him!) and the King's Armoury building is spanky white, while the awning is a bit on the dusty white shade......oh so many whites unite!
Then we discover another style of white
Oh, mud castles and frog days
sweet memories of dirt and mud
mushed together
a joy that stays forever dirty until
that dear mud you're wearing
is washed away!
I present for you, Woman Dressed in Tatters, sculpting MUD CASTLES in ...well, the MUD!
At my first glance of the Mud Lady, she's sporting a bit more white than you might believe.....but....
give her a bit more time to play in the mud, just a wee bit later and....
The beauty of dirt and earth, and the highest form of creation ever shaped upon our earth by our own Mud Lady just for you!
DON'T Laugh, this really is relaxing.......and quite adventurous!
I'll close with a real refreshing sparkling, clean bright white.....
Monday's clouds.....
I don't know if you were as lucky as where I live.....but the clouds around here were just the biggest draw.......It was tough not looking up all day long ....... Okay some really awesome trees just grew out of no where to be in this photo....
Okay one more cloud view.... from Sunday
You must not blame me if I talk to the clouds. -Henry David Thoreau and You must not blame me if I keep shooting the clouds, - ME .....no idea who any of these random Rennfest people were, but why aren't they checking out the clouds?
Come on people!
I hope you enjoyed my post of white, and remember the clouds over your head and the wonderful depth they carry......have a blessed shorter week! |
