Order-Chaos

Arranging flowers to look so random sure takes a lot of practice and thought.

Wide-Narrow

The "Mile High Swinging Bridge" at Grandfather Mountain is a narrow path across a wide span!

Wet-Dry

This was taken in probably the driest part of the state of Nebraska. You can see the wide and slow-moving Niobrara River wind thru the dark green wet-land area, surrounded by dry land that is almost a desert.

Dark-Light

Sammy is the dark; Robbie is the light!

Clean-Dirty

I love how fresh snow can make the world seem cleaner!

Cold - Hot

Cold raw chicken over hot coals.

Organized - Cluttered

A lifetime of clutter, organized into boxes.

Old-New

This is the grave of my 5th great-grandfather, William Faris (1734-1818). The original marker will probably disintegrate eventually and seems to be sinking, but the nice new military marker was placed there sometime after 2005. You can see where he's buried on Find a Grave.

Big-Small

Two Ferris wheels, but that poor little girl seemed ready to get off of the smaller one. This was taken last summer at the Geauga County Fair.

First Theme

I was contacted yesterday by the creator of a new photo meme that's called Two 4 Tuesday. Chad has come up with what seems like will be a fun and challenging concept.

Each week on Tuesday we will post a double theme. The themes will be opposites or antonyms. You have a couple options when it comes to posting your photo:

• The Real Challenge: Post a single photo that captures both themes.
• OR: Post a single photo that captures one of the themes.
• OR: Post two photos capturing one theme in each photo

See what I mean? But for this week, he's being easy on us and there is no theme.

What you're seeing is a macro shot of a nearly used-up votive candle taken thru it's glass holder. I was pretty happy with how this came out, hope you like it!
