Snapshots on hiatus!

Fellow photo lovers... the Snapshots blog is going on a one-month hiatus and will be back in early September with a BLAST of new and exciting photos! Please visit again then for some eye-candy... until then, Technodoll is drowning in work, she will be off to Los Angeles for a week and then will finally get some vacation time by the sea... she will bring back the blue and the beauty for you after that.

~be good and see you again soon!~

Summer lovers

The warm sun can be as romantic as the full moon, in the right settings...

Little peanut

Isn't is awesome how a dog can find amusement in the smallest of tasks, such as nibbling on a stick for ages until it's perfectly whittled down to matching toothpicks? LOL!

Prose

A book reads the better which is our own, and has been so long known to us, that we know the topography of its blots, and dog's ears, and can trace the dirt in it to having read it at tea with buttered muffins. ~Charles Lamb, Last Essays of Elia, 1833

Freaky Monday

Imagine if this is how you always saw the world?...

Patches of gold

I liked the mix of man vs nature here... serene in the setting sun.

Flowers... a poem

I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.

~Edna St. Vincent Millay, "Afternoon on a Hill"

Man, why so serious?...

Maybe he's just upset at not being able to bend down and smell the roses...

Drinking it in

A bit of serenity tucked away in the middle of a busy city... ah. Water soothes all souls...

Sky hugger

You never know what you will find when you up towards the skies...

On guard!

Nope, nothing to report today... move along!

Nature, all around

How seamlessly beast and green surroundings blend in with each other!

Um.

"What mischief should I get into now? The dog is already in the city lake..."

Stop shaving the dogs!

Dog groomers should be banned from shaving certain breeds of dogs, they're either only in it for the money or they are genuinely ignorant :-( Nordic breeds need their coats to protect them from heatstroke, sunburn, insect bites, etc. Nature designed them that way for a reason... why do humans always think they are smarter? Tsk!!

Pretty in pink... and green

It's amazing what you can catch in your lens (view from a picnic blanket in the park)!

Life is a pretty sweet fruit

If only all dogs in the world could have it this good...

Summer textures

Just a pretty bag that caught my eye.

Everybody loves a good green

I love capturing the essence of overspilling joy and delight... can you feel it?

Serenity

Nice to find a slice of quiet in the hot bustling city... you can't see from this photo that the park is full of happy people, can you?
Yet... there they were :-)

Gorgeous summer day

This week will feature hot green summer shots taken in a local park... enjoy!
