April Showers Posted July 1, 2017 Author Share Posted July 1, 2017 I'm going to head off and get things ready for a bridal shower my daughter is hosting at our house. I'll check back on this thread throughout the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida granny Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Ack! It looks like I missed this chat, too, and, even worse will miss the evening one as well. And you know, April, how I love to chat! We are currently in New Hampshire visiting friends. I did take a photo at about noon, so I hope this counts. Here is my lunch photo, un-touched, with terrible lighting, but since it was pretty spontaneous, I think it will count for the challenge. (I will fix it up a bit for the layout). Fun challenge!

alsoarty Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I missed the chat - was helping someone moving in (my sister) and so now this is outside my living room window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida granny Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 It turns out I didn't want to spend a lot of time on the photo since we are on our way out again. Plus my editing wasn't doing much good. So I lightened it a bit and mostly left it alone. Using the template was a big help,too. Great idea for a challenge! Here's my finished layout.

englishrose Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 To be honest it's nearly dark outside so I've had to use a photo I took a couple of weeks back of the view from my study window. It's here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I'm going to go look outside my window to see what I see! Unfortunately, I hear thunder and it's gotten awfully dark so it might be an adventure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 So, we did have quite a rainstorm and here's the photo I took. It looks like it's bright out but it's the automatic light on the garage door that kicked off! It was pouring when I took this photo. You can see my Fairy Garden/Houses down the steps. And, after I took this photo I removed the flag until the rain stopped. Which it did about an hour later and the sun came out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually that was DURING the rain - it was pouring then, it just didn't show up! The bright spot is from the sensor light on the garage that went on because it was so dark!

And, honestly when I took the photo I couldn't see the light - it was SO dark and dreary out with the pouring rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Laraine and so cool to think you walked up those steps, but the Fairy Garden wasn't there, yet! I love your photo - what a beautifully lush, green scene outside your window and I love palm... It looks so pretty with the sun shining on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's so pretty and peaceful, Carla - no wonder you see a lot of deer, they have lots of places to hide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
