I didn’t take many photos this week and didn’t pick up the camera until Thursday. Thursday I took some more photos of stuff in our yard. Friday I had a doctor’s appointment and took some photos outside the doctor’s office.
I love the light in this one… and the detail found in the leaves.
I have no clue what this flower is… it was growing in our back yard.
This leaf was lying on our front steps.
I took this photo of our reflection in the mirrored window of my doctor’s office. I wonder if they really are windows. If so, do you think the people inside watching me thought I’d lost my mind? ;)
There are a practically a zillion of these flowers in my doctor’s office park.
And that’s all she wrote (or photographed). For more Weekly Winners, visit Sarcastic Mom. :)

Beautiful! Honestly, I love them all. The ’self-portrait’ is really fun! I always joke that my neighbors probably think I’ve lost my mind…”Oh there’s that crazy lady taking photos of the grass again!” Isn’t photography the best?
Great job this week!
Thank you, Jenny! Yeah, I hear you about taking photos of “grass.” The week I took over 4,500 photos of the dandelion it DID look like I was just taking photos of the grass. And my parents had just moved into that house, too. Oy…
I love the day lily in the last shot! It’s beautiful!
And that fallen leaf… stunning!!
Thanks so much, Jenty. I’m really pleased with how the fallen leaf photo turned out. I didn’t know when I was taking it how it would look.
I really love the leaves!! Beautiful lighting for both of them :)
Thank you, Sadie. :)
At least your doctor seams to have a nice yard, lol !
YUP! I took my camera not knowing what I’d find… but I’m glad I did.
The self portrait one is great - who cares if they were laughing?
I like the first one of the leaves best…
Yeah… I don’t really CARE, but I got home and the thought made me go “hmmm…”
Thanks for the compliment. :) I’m a sucker for light like that.
That is a beautiful shot of the fallen leaf! It reminds me of autumn . . . my favorite time of year.
Thank you, Karen. The scary thing is that if I went LOOKING for a shot like that in the fall I couldn’t find one. But in the middle of June? No problem! ;)
These are all gorgeous, and the last one is so bright and happy! I love the whole idea of the mirrored glass thing and what people on the other side might have been wondering :)
Thank you!
I didn’t actually wonder about the folks on the other side of the glass until I got home. I’m glad I didn’t. I might not have taken the photo otherwise.
Wow those are beautiful! I wonder if the people inside the window got paranoid for a minute thinking you were taking a picture of them :)
Thank you, Steph. I think I would have wondered if I’d been on the other side of the glass. :)
I love the lighting on that first one too! Great pictures!
Thanks so much, Jeanette! :)
Beautiful photos. I love that last lily!
Thanks so much!
So many beautiful shots…it’s hard to pick a favorite. I think I like the fallen leaf them most.

Hi, Susan! Thank you so much for the compliment. :)
I love the leaf on your front steps. That’s a great perspective.
Thank you, Chris. I LOVE taking photos like that one.
I’m one step away from the straight jacket with all my self portraits.. LOL
Great shots of the leaves and flowers.
I’m hearing you, Secret Agent Mama. I don’t think I could do the Project 365 thing. And even as much as I talk, I’m having trouble doing the Blog 365 thing. (I will take at least a year off before signing up for something else like this. I bet I’ll still blog 90% of the days in 2009, but I won’t “have” to.)
I still want to try the mailbox shot — maybe one day this week after work, since I’m (finally!) starting to feel better.
And (getting back on subject) thank you for the compliments. :)
I love all of these but I love the self portrait! (and the thought process that goes along with it).
Thanks so much, Tiff. I actually didn’t think about the whole “are there people on the other side” thing until after I got home. I’m rather glad for that. :)
Beautiful pics :) I love the last one!
Thanks so much, Marylin! :) (And I have a horrible feeling I’ve been misspelling your name. If so, I apologize.)
What a bunch of fantastic pictures, Reba! I loved them all!!
Thanks for dropping by and for your wishes. Have a great week!
Thank you, Gabriel! :)
It seems that CommentLuv doesn’t work. Or does it? :-)
Hi, Gabriel… Thanks for the heads up. I’ve tried to reinstall it, but I can’t get it to work. Sigh…
Stunning. Absolutely stunning. I love the first one best!
Thanks so much! :)
I love the light on the leaves as well. I got some strange looks yesterday, I was photographing the reflective lens on a guide post lol.. I must go back and do it again..
Great selection Rebecca, I think that the leaf on its own is just lovely..
cheers kim
Thanks so much, Kim! :) I say the “stranger” the looks, the better the photographs. Or something.
I LOVE the leaf shot! Great work!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks so much!
All great shots!
Thanks so much, Beth! :)
Thanks for sharing these photos. They are just beautiful.
And thank you for such a nice compliment. :)
Wow, your reflection doesn’t even look like a reflection, so crisp and clear. :) Love the flowers and the leaves too. Hope your doc appointment went well.
Hi, Lisa!
Thank you! I love that reflection shot. I wish I’d had the foresight to pull the camera down a few inches, so I had my face in the shot. But then I probably would have managed to make it all fuzzy and not-clear. :)
My doctor’s appointment went just fine. Thank you for asking.
Awesome winners! My faves are the 1st & last ones but the reflection one is great as well!
Thanks so much, Connie! :)
Gorgeous! Love them. And, as usual, your self-portrait is adorable. Y’all are just too cute.
Thanks so much. You’re sweet to say that. :) I enjoy the self-portraits.
