#363 Winter

Sure are lots of opportunities for us in the Northern Hemisphere to check this theme off the list!

Taken last year at night. The city has spot lights on the river - so cool (no pun intended).

#359 White on White

These wind turbines are visible from town on a clear day but today I had to drive up close. There is a lot of discussion as to whether the turbines are a good thing or a bad thing "for the environment." I vote for good thing.

BTW: it was gently snowing so does that count as white-on-white-on-white? Oh yeah, I knew there would be another opportunity for "Three."

#342 Unfinished

This supposed-to-be hotel looks good on the outside but circumstances interrupted its completion so here it stands, vacant, unfinished, sad. Interested parties are in court but . . .

#236 Reflect

I forget that taking a photo of something inside the vehicle also means taking a photo of myself. I call this one "BCWIC" (Big Cheese What's In Charge). He was so cute guarding the master's truck at the grocery store parking lot. Had to capture him in pixels. (He/she is not my doggie.)

#330 Three

Outdoor sculpture at the Eastern Idaho Art Museum. Photo below shows the whole piece. I hesitate to fulfill the "Three" theme so early in the year because there are so many wonderful possibilities. I may use it again.

#103 - Fences

I liked the semi-circle "tufts" of snow along the boards taken on one of the few sun-shiney days we have had recently.

#1 Abstract

I wracked my brain ever since getting the list - abstract? All I could think of was abstract art and taking a picture of a picture doesn't seem like the point of this project. FINALLY! I remembered the "Art You Can Sit On" collection of twenty-two benches our city has so proudly displayed. You will probably see more of these through the year.

"voodoo chili" by Doug Warnock is a tile and glass mosaic bench in the contour of a young woman. I brushed off most of the snow but couldn't dislodge all the ice. I thought the shadows were a nice touch. Sorry my footprints interfered. I didn't think of it soon enough.
