I like this treatment! Very gritty and interesting, indeed!

 

[Gordo]

Nice vision of "signs of the time".

WEEK 12
1. Saw this on our walk home from downtown this morning. I processed it to give it a gritty, old-time look and enhance the strange optical weirdness in the corners of plexiglass of the sign to resonate with the word "Virtual".

2. Not to leave the Unitarians out—I'm sure the Zoom thing they mention is a some sort of old way to congregate; hence the toning!

Nice shots and PP'ing Nick Different times with virtual services.

 

[Binnur]

I like both of them Nick . Shadows in #1 seem a bit too dark to me though.

I prefer this version to the sepia one.

WEEK 13

A very quick and sloppy offering of my shrine to the new currency of the realm!

Twelve rolls, given a place of honor, guarded by a small herd of Indian Elephants, and presided over by the Elephant God, Ganesh.
Why elephants you may ask? Well, in the upper right corner of the 12-pack it reads, "12 Jumbo Rolls"

Heeheeheeheeheeheehee...... OMG, I can't stop laughing!!!! Brilliant, just brilliant! Oh-- and wow, what a score -- 12 jumbo rolls!!! YESSSSSS!!!!

 

[Palouse]

Thanks Connie. Humor is priceless. Running out of wine is a bigger fear—no substitutes.

 

[BLX]

Brilliant Nick Nice with some humor in these time.... thanks

WEEK 14.

Not much photo action out here this week. Cooking and cleaning have taken much of our time. But as the sun was setting this evening I was reminded of a chore I have been putting off. Bob Bohdan would be aghast!

At first I thought it was snowing again, and then I realized -- oops, time for you to get out the bottle of Windex!!!

 

[BLX]

wow - these really need cleaning

WEEK 15

1. Out for a morning walk that ended at a city park. The playground is suitably shut down, but the benches around it, and the picnic shelter, all appear open for business. This is me using my head—my shadow points to an open bench! Gotta love those early morning shadows.

2. This little flower has been blooming, alone, in the middle of our lawn for about 5 years. Doesn't spread.

Nice set Nick... like them all but that last one is quite cool. Well spotted

 

[Clix Pix]

I like that last one, too.....looks sharp!!! Can't figure out what it is, though......

 

[Gordo]

12 - again, an interesting interpretation.

13 - LOL fun shot, but sad in a way. Can't believe some of the stuff people seem to be hoarding collecting.

14 - Ack. Window cleaning. Creative shot.

15 - nice shadow selfie. Kids playground stuff has been marked off limits here as well. Wondering what the last photo is...
