Friday My Town Shoot Out:Childhood Classics

I apologize for your wasted trip over here. Life got in the way and I don't have a post ready for this week. I'll be checking in to see how everyone interpreted this assignment.

Friday My Town Shoot Out: Sunrise/ Sunset

The topic for the Friday My Town Shoot this week was chosen by Sherri. It has been overcast and rainy all week so these come from my photos earlier this summer.

This sunrise picture was taken on the west side of Sebelius Reservoir near Norton, Kansas.




Shots of the same sunset 5 minutes apart. Outside of Oakley, Kansas.

A smile,

makes your face beautiful

and reflects back at you all day long!

Friday My Town Shoot Out: Silhouettes

This weeks topic chosen by Carrie. I'm so happy to share some of these. I thought they were flops, but they were just silhouettes!

Our town has a home owned carnival so this sets at the fairgrounds year round.

More carnival ride.

Steering Wheels.....and Boys

Suggestions?

I'm trying to think of a better way to paint the wall and ceiling above my basement stairway. My husband used to use these planks placed closely together. He was 6' 4" and I'm a foot shorter so I still need some extra reach. (The netting was custom made to keep the little ones from falling through-it will probably be in place until their heads are too big to go between the spindles and yes I noticed the dust.)



I'm thinking, "Hire a professional."

Friday My Town Shoot Out: Photo Study of a Building

This week we are to do a photo study of a building. "Look at the angles, the light, the windows, doors, special features, its uses past and present." I took these pictures this past summer. I think this building may have had many special features that you just don't see anymore. Notice the small offset window. I wish I could get a shot of the door. I can only guess at it's past uses.

I couldn't get very close,



but I was able to use my zoom.



Whatever it's current use, it will remain a mystery to me!
