Welcome to my ongoing 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'm more likely to 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. Here's how it works: Every two weeks I have a few words and phrases to focus on, and I try to find opportunities to take pictures of these things each week. The link-up post will be here every other Thursday, sharing my photos and offering a link-up for participants to share theirs. Right below the link-up is where you'll find the next set of prompts.

river - does this count as a river? It's just a small branch at this point, but we enjoyed exploring this little bit of nature in a local park.
delicate - This necklace was a gift years ago, and I'm not even certain who gave it to me at the moment. I don't wear it very often because I'm worried that I'll snag the very fine chain.

minimalist - I have no idea what I was thinking when I included this prompt. It must have seemed like a good idea at the beginning of the year in my randomizer. Anyway, sorry if it stumped you like it did me! I think it's safe to describe my office as rather minimalist in design. I've added next to nothing on the walls to make it personalized. Not sure what that says about me?
And a few bonus photos:
We tried out a new to us restaurant recently - Filli Cafe - and it was so good! Elegant, almost exotic atmosphere, and delicious food. Their tagline is something like "from Dubai to the world" but I also saw some posts describing it as an Indian cafe so I'm not sure. I do know that their specialty drink is chai and the zafron chai I had was amazing. I also know that the menu featured quite a few shawarma and tikka dishes. Hubby had a shawarma wrap and I had their "columbus style flatbread" and both were delicious. Pretty sure we'll visit again!
From there we carried on to an area park that was new to us as well. Pretty nice for such an earliest of spring days.
The interesting geological feature here are these roundish rocks that are apparently naturally occurring. (Some 'millions of years' explanation was on the sign, I'm sure) They looked a little like big turtle shells.
In the evening we headed to the Blue Jackets game, and I pondered these 'naturally occurring' patterns in the clouds on the way. Haha.
There was a huge and enthusiastic welcome back for the players that had been at the Olympics, especially the Blue Jackets' own Zach Werenski who played for the gold medalist USA team.
March rolled in with snow! It wasn't a couple feet or anything, but it was enough to delay everything and really snarl up traffic on the first Monday of the month. That was pretty stressful for me, because I was supposed to be reporting for jury duty and the commute downtown took nearly triple the amount of time it should have taken, and I enjoyed absolutely nothing about driving to an unfamiliar downtown location under those conditions. Thankfully, I arrived still 'technically' on time, and since the entire system was running late, it was fine. I was there all week, through mostly gloomy weather. I did enjoy the fog, to be honest, and the views from the court building and the top floor of the parking garage. (See my 'from above' photo . . . above . . . see what I did there?)
Got to end off that week with another Blue Jackets game. The challenge for this one was finding parking and navigating the congestion downtown, as the Arnold tournament was going on, and the Columbus Crew were also playing.
I finally have a wallet that represents me pretty accurately.
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.
The Everyday Images link-up is posted every other Thursday, and is open for two weeks.
