ABC Wednesday - F is for....

Ah, the F word today! Which shall I choose? A full moon? A forest? My faith? My fake jewellry? Facet joints that need fusing? Or maybe even a photo I've funneled on PhotoShop. Nah! After checking through some of my photos, these are what I've chosen to share with you today.

First, here is Noah at age 3 1/2, the first time he printed his name.


Here are a few of my favourite floral macros.

Some fishing boats at rest in Victoria Harbour.

A fence at the old farm in Campbell Valley Park.

In Lerici (Italy), I saw these fantastic fountains in the town square.

Friends are the most important people in our lives. Here are Suzanne and me when we went to Manhattan Beach, CA, and biked along the Strand.

A fire is a lovely way to finish a fun evening.

Finally asleep after a fun-filled day with Gramma.

I hoped you enjoyed my fotos today and if you'd like to see fotos of other contributors, click here to check out the new ABC Wednesday site, hosted by Mrs. Nesbitt.

  12. My favourite is the farm fence. The green field is so vivid. I've been up the cabin quite a bit this summer so I've missed quite a few Wednesdays. I'll be back online tomorrow. -- Margy

  13. What a wonderful collection of Fs! My favorites, though, are the first and the last. Noah is a real charmer.

  14. How blessed you are to have all those nice experiences to show.
    Just hope that's not a book burning in the fire; looks like it somehow (sorry, i tend to see such things where they are NOT).
    Noah is a real cutie. Look at that head of curls. What fun he must be!

  15. Hi everyone! Thanks for your wonderful comments. A few of you mention you like the photo of the fence - I really like that one, too, because of all the angles. And yes, Noah is a sweetie, but he has a little boy haircut now and looks so much more grown up since his baby sister arrived.

  16. Dina, I looked at the fire again and you're right that it looks like a book burning. But it's not. It's the edge of a piece of wood. We do not burn books here! lol

  27. Leslie, your grandson is sooooo cute! Loved him sleeping with his Spiderman pajamas! Lucas has this costume with the mask, used to be hard to make him take it off! LOL

    You and your friends look adorable as well... Actually loved everything.
    And you wrote it quite right, "fotos" is the word in Portuguese for photos! :o)
