Something to do in January......MIRRORS!

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

I need to get back out there and challenge myself, so I am suggesting this assignment for anyone interested. Let's challenge ourselves with mirrors. Tell a story using a mirror or a reflection.

There was celebration in our town put on by the Art Alliance where school kids painted these giant balls and they were floated in our local lake.  To get a sense of the size of the balls:

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Wow!  Those are really giant balls.   Great reflections, Nancy. 

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Thank you.

[F, Calla & Luca]

Really nice!

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Thanks.  It really was a cool sight.

[DonMarie and Picco]

Those are really cool!  And big!  It would be fun to be in that boat.

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

The person in the boat's job was to haul in the balls that lost air and refill and replace them.

[DJ & Chance]

Love the creativity expressed in these images!

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Thank you. I think this was done all over the country, but I appreciated it in my own town. 

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

I would love to see something like this around our area. Those balls are amazing!

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

Fabulous and FUN!

When we go on longer trips, especially on the motorcycle, I take photos to pass the time - it's that or sleep and sleeping on the bike is a definite No No.  capturing a reflection when riding is pretty hopeless, hence a huge challenge.  Here are a few successful ones, especially the one of the truck where the mountains are perfectly reflected. That one was taken from the back of the bike.
