Welcome to another installment of my challenge and reminder to myself to take photos somewhat regularly. I'm not a photographer, but I enjoy taking everyday photos of things I find interesting or want to remember later, and I find that I notice interesting things when I'm intentionally watching for them. Having some prompts that are open to interpretation has helped me pay a little more attention to what's around me. Every two weeks I have a few words and phrases that I'm focusing on, and I try to find opportunities to take pictures of these things each week. These were the prompts I assigned myself for the past couple weeks:

yard (quarterly)
harvest - I stumped myself with this one, and I thought it would be easy even though I don't have a garden. I'm settling for this to represent the harvest season.
spooky - we happened upon some very creative Halloween decorations at an old abandoned mill. Bet this would have been fun to drive by in the dark!
vintage - had several options for this so I'm including two. The inside of my old upright grand piano that my daughter is in the process of dismantling - it's got a ten year guarantee, but this piano was still in great shape after a hundred years! The second photo is of a vintage Todd Protectograph machine that was displayed in a diner where we ate, and led to a great discussion with my mom as she remembered using similar machines at her first job in a bank.
web - you can barely see it, but there is a spider web on the plant.

A few more bonus photos:
I am sharing my photos every other Tuesday, along with my prompts for the next two weeks. You can use all or some of the prompts for your own photo posts, or none of the prompts and just link up a post featuring your photos. Simple rules: Your posts must be family-friendly; the photos must be your own; and the post must be mostly photos. If you do share I'd appreciate a mention and link to A Fresh Cup of Coffee on your post.
Everyday Images continues in 2024, every other Tuesday. And on the alternate Tuesdays, I'm hosting the Twenty-Six Lists link-up. I'd love to have you join me for that too!
