Valokuvatorstai – Patience

No, No, no patience,  this was hard, what to photograph to convey patience. aah, … fishing –  i have none for it, lace making, no,no, not for me. I study sculpture, that requires patience and for some reason.  I have been able to summon up some to do it, here are few I’ve done.

One Word Photo Challenge: Black

 

Trying to find black things I’ve photographed was surprisingly hard, I did not want to do black and white photos, as black was the the color of the challenge. I found black in lots of my photos, as a background, a shadow, but a black object not so readily found. Well here is the result of my search.

Grey skies, we just had more snow last night, but it is supposed to warm up again this weekend. Hopefully spring will be here to stay this time. Blue skies is so much more appealing than grey skies.
