Summer/Fire – Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge


When someone mentions the word, “Summer,” the word “food” would immediately pops into my head. Summer is the time for rapid harvest. I say rapid because if you don’t harvest it now, it will not be as sweet and juicy in a few hours. At least that’s been my experience with picking blackberries from the bushes in the backyard.

Summer is also HOT! It’s often close to 100-degrees where I live in Utah. Oh, and let’s don’t forget to mention dry. There’s news of raging wildfires just about everyday. Anyone is prone to getting sunburned, heat rash, and dehydrated. Therefore, every summer, I try to find ways to cool myself down – go underground into the basement, drown myself with ice, or go hike up the mountain into the woods with trees and rapid water flowing.

Both pictures were taken last summer.

Seeing things from the side- Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge


Here are some of the photos I’ve taken recently which involves looking at something from the side. I hope you enjoy my selection.

This was shot at my last visit to the ranch. Just when I thought I’ve run out of things to shoot, this butterfly surprised me. For almost 10 minutes, I was playing Capture the Butterfly in pictures. And I did. This is just one of many photographs I’ve captured of the beautiful creature.

I got this on Orange Isle (橘子洲头) in Changsha (长沙) on the first day of my road trip last week. I don’t know what kind of flower this is but the color is sure beautiful. 

This is another picture which I captured on my last visit to the ranch. It’s a peach flower. Peach trees are blooming this time of the year. 

Finally, this is the side view of a mountain. You can see the crowd on the ledge. There’s always people everywhere.
