The Stig

What a character....need I say more?

Discovering South Beach

My charming niece, Sarah does not lead the typical 21 year old's life. She is a professional show dog handler and is perpetually on the road and rarely out of the show ring. Needless to say, she doesn't get very much R & R. On a recent trip to visit me in Lighthouse Point, Fl, I introduced her to the joys of South Beach. She was amazed by the architecture, the people , the beach and once she saw the drag queen perform, she looked at me and said, "Aunt Jenn, I LOVE THIS PLACE!"

Photo Challenge: Merry Christmas!

Every year, my husband puts up the lights on the house WITHOUT TESTING them first. Every year I ask "did you test those?" and every year he says "No, what's the fun in that?". Every year about 45 minutes into this whole thing I hear him yell "BOLLOCKS!" (he's English) because a set doesn't work. This is our quaint little Christmas tradition. Normally I take a picture of that moment. For now, here's Oakley asking if he can take the ornament and play with it. If a better photo comes around I will post it.

Photo Challenge: WEATHER

It's almost always sunny here in central Florida. But here is a shot of some evening clouds. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Photo Challenge: Macro

I always buy Halloween candy that I DON'T like so that I will not eat it! That's why there is some left! Here it is.....

Photo Challenge: Into The Camera

I took this challenge to mean "something in the foreground and the background". Not sure if I got it right but this is a picture of a model home that I designed. I The area was a small space so I tried to make the room look bigger with the angle and sort of squatting down to the chair's level. Shooting the rooms that I design has been a challenge for me and something I would really like to get better at if anyone has suggestions.

FLOWER POWER

Well we may not have an abundance of bridges in Florida but we do have plenty of colorful flowers! This is a hibiscus flower. Hibiscus is a very common flowering bush that is inexpensive and almost impossible to kill.
