Summer and Green: Going, Going....

Do-Something-Everyday, August 21, 2016

Yesterday, I took a walk along the Passaic River Trail before the big thunderstorm hit the area. Everything was summery green. Summer and green go together. Like love and marriage.

The river glistened in the afternoon sunlight.

 Though it was hot and humid, there were glimpses of the cooler season approaching.

Seasons come and go. Sometimes, they seem long and sometimes they are short. Our internal clocks too shift gears in anticipation, especially if your work cycles is tied to seasonal cycles. For me, working in higher education, fall is when new students come and classes start. Even when I am doing the same things I did the previous fall, it is still a season of new beginnings.

A Beautiful World Green

Do-Something-Everyday, July 17, 2016

This week's theme is Green at Our Beautiful World Photography Challenge. Green is color, of course. In painting, green is a secondary color that can be created by mixing yellow and blue. Green also means someone inexperienced or  someone who cares about environment or someone who is envious of something. Then there are fictional characters that are famously green  (Kermit the frog and Incredible Hulk).

Today, I am focusing on green as in nature. All the photos shown here are of my front yard on a very hot summer day. Enjoy.

Weekly Challenge 209: St. Patty's

We are to use green in our tangle in honor of St Patrick's day for the Diva Challenge 209. What better spot for green than a parrot (my favorite bird)?
