Weekly Winners 8/10

August 10, 2008 by Elaine

August 3 – August 9

Okay, so I am a week or so off since these are even more pictures from our vacation that I have kept on reserve. But these are a little more “artsy” and well, I didn’t take any pictures this week so here are my last week’s “winners” for this week. Make sense?

This house isn’t heavy because it’s a “light” house.

This image conjures up “waves” of emotion

Of “horse” these are pretty, dontcha think?
(I know, that one was bad, I’ll quit now…)

I can’t decide if I like this or not. I did this in Photoshop but on here it just looks a little blurry. I think I still like it though…

I thought this guy (or gal) was pretty interesting

Oh to be young and carefree again…


One cool dude

    These are all really great photos, Elaine. I especially love the “walking/running away” photos. Some of my favorite photos of my kids are those of them walking/running/standing with their backs to the camera – pictures.

    Hope you had a good weekend – see you soon – Kellan
