Photo of the Day!

Before I change the photo topic from China to Canada, I want to share one more picture I took in China. That was shot in China’s Grand Canyon, as I hobbled along the trail. What to say about this photo? Hmm… Beautiful name, weird translation for the safety sign.

Autumn and Metal- Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge
When I think of autumn, I would immediately think of leaves changing with the weather. I would think of leaves falling from trees. It also means I can no longer go out without a jacket because it’s time to start bundling up. Above are some of the various color leaves I found in my backyard last autumn.
As for metal, these are some of the pictures I took when I visited QiJiang Park in January of this year. Before it became a park, this used to be a shipyard. The picture on the right is an art display made from metal poles. It was quite difficult capturing the entire thing from top to bottom.

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.

Against the Odds

I took this photo on my recent visit to the ranch. I was searching for photographic opportunities that day since I’ve practically taken the pictures of all the flowers at the ranch. That’s when I saw this.

Despite getting bit by bugs and pecked by birds, this starfruit held on to its branch. This is one strong fruit.
