Sunday Stills: Going to the Dogs

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was dogs. 

Perfect! Chance is ever so patient with me…although sometimes he gets a little bored.

Snow makes a perfect background for Border Collie photographs!  Have a great week everyone.

Sunday Stills: In your hand

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was  to photograph something in your hand.

This is one of my newest old ornaments.

Another of my favorite ornaments.  I collect antique ornaments that are called Shiny Brites.  I have a ten foot tall tree upstairs that is their Christmas home.
Have a great week everyone

Sunday Stills: Pets

Congratulations Sunday Stills you are five years old..good job Ed and Linda too!

The challenge this week was pets.

Of course that means Chance.

I took this just a little bit ago.  December 8, 2013 It was snowing just a bit.

Chance goes along to get the mail every morning and on Sundays he has to go for a long walk.  He has a routine and likes to follow it every day.

He is my constant companion outdoors.

He is my husbands best buddy…they do everything together.  However Chance draws the line at chainsaws and chains, if my husband gets out a chain Chance comes to the house.  One time my husband was in the truck pulling stumps and Chance didn’t like it at all.  As for the chainsaw..Chance doesn’t like trees that fall over.

When you see Chance a ball is never far away!

Chance is a great dog.  He was nine years old in October.  He gets a little gimpy some days in the cold weather. He is a house dog…and is well trained, if he has to go out he will pester you or whine quietly.  We love him very much and cannot imagine life without him.

Have a good week everyone!

Sunday Stills : Night Shot

I took this photo last night in town.  The tree is up and lit.  The Challenge this week in Sunday Stills was a a night shot.

Yes in this little town we can park in the center of Main Street.   Have a good week everyone!

Sunday Stills: Favorite Subject

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was to take one photograph of our favorite subject.

Well I bet you all can guess who my favorite subject is??

Well Chance our Border Collie!  Surprise surprise!  Here he is at an old bridge trying to hide from my camera.

Have a good week everyone:)

Sunday Stills : Blue

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was the color blue.  Ed said to go for something other than the sea and sky.   Here are my picks!

Our neighbors Australian Shepherd has blue eyes…his name it Putzer…Putz for short.

 

We saw this bike along the roadside one day strung up in a tree.  Note the old bait bucket is now a flower pot.

Have a good week everyone! :).

Sunday Stills : Bird Houses

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was bird houses.

The Bluebird houses are empty now.  Two batches of babies were raised out of this Bluebird house last summer.

 

I love to watch the Bluebirds come and go feeding their young.  This photo was taken in the spring of the year.

Have a good week everyone:)
