Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #127: Precious Moments

Amy at The World Is A Book sets us the challenge of recalling precious memories in a year that might have lack any or many. She’s shared lots of lovely photos of happy, mask-less people, something which probably features large in any of our precious memories. I’m going much further back to share the precious memory of family.

Memories, precious to me, of “my” park in Illinois and winter, which I do miss.

Wonderful memories of a memorable trip to Yosemite.

A beautiful welcome to Arizona!

And for the furthest back memory, a selfie of sorts with “my” first horse/pony. The owner brought the pony to our house during his trip around the neighborhoods and my parents paid for my photo to be taken. Happy? Oh, yeah! Much better than the ice cream truck!

If Magritte did digital selfies

You never know what you’ll be able to photograph in the bathroom.

One Word Sunday…selfie

How I really am

How I see myself.  🙂  (Dianna Rigg as Mrs. Peel in “The Avengers”)

for Debbie’s One Word Sunday

(Apologies if I haven’t gotten to your blog over the last few days. I’ve had to work and just ran out of time!  Today I actually have a Sunday off to spend with my husband, someone I haven’t had time to do anything with for months.  See you soon!)

Selfie

This is me after trying to figure out how to free up space on my Google Drive (or whatever) so that I don’t have to buy more space.  My photos are supposed to be syncing up in High Resolution rather than Original, giving me unlimited storage.  But they seem to refuse to do so.  Naturally, I find this out about 45 minutes before having to go to work and again after coming home when wanting to go to bed.  Hence the “photo.”  🙂

Happy Monday!

Reflections on a selfie

Just for fun on Saturday.  Me, taking a picture of me taking a picture of me, taking a picture…

Weekly Photo Challenge: Selfie

I admit I cringe when I hear words like “selfie.”  Maybe that’s just age.  And I see “selfie” has made it into the dictionary.  No matter my feelings, this week’s challenge is “Selfie” and I’ll go with that.  You see my vacation selfie each time you view my gravatar, so I’m giving you a dressy version, my Sunday-go-to-meeting self.  I’m heading to Costa Rica on Sunday for a very short mother-daughter getaway, a Christmas gift from said daughter.  So it may take me some time to see you.  In the meantime, have a wonderful, photogenic week!
