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.

station - I hate it when I stump myself. For some reason I must have thought I might drive by a train station or something? Settling for this photo that kind of shows my desk which might be considered my "work station"
selfie (quarterly)
beginning and/or end - views from my doorstep at the beginning and at the end of Monday
pebbles
scenery - weather that was either muggy and hot or rainy kept us from getting out walking much recently. And walks in the parks would be where I'd likely see scenery, right? So it's fitting that I decided to use this photo of the scene while we waited out the thunderstorm in a picnic shelter on Sunday.
And a few bonus photos:
We went to the county fair demolition derby a couple weekends ago.
I like the neon glow on this photo my hubby took of me and my granddaughter. Haha.
This past Saturday we checked out Char-Mar Ridge park which was very nice, thought it was very hot that day and there was absolutely NO breeze.
I am sharing my photos every other Thursday, 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 will continue in 2025, every other Thursday, and the link-up is open for two weeks.

LOL! I hate when I stump myself with prompts too. It's kind of surprising how often that ends up happening too. You got some really fabulous photos this month and quick thinking on "station!"
ReplyDeleteI've stumped myself a couple times this year and wondered what I was thinking when I chose all the prompts. LOL That's what makes it a challenge, right? Thanks for stopping by and commenting, and for linking up!
