photo hunting ~ protection

tnchick has brought us the Saturday meme,
“Photo Hunters” for as long as the weblog world can remember. For this week’s theme of “Protection” I chose the F-18 Hornet.

I am honored and thankful they protect me.

photo hunting ~ purple

Wisteria has a very special place in my heart.  It only blooms for a few weeks each year. In the winter it seems to go dormant and the endlessly entwined branches are nature’s art at it’s finest.

For other purple participants… visit the Tennessee Chick

This is part of a piece in the lobby of the San Francisco Museum of Metropolitan Art. (SFMOMA)
I shot it last summer when The Teamster took me to see the Frida Kahlo exhibit…which was excellent!

photo hunting ~ bridge

I love looking at this bridge.
I have driven on it, flown over it, sailed under it.
The Golden Gate is amazing....

I took this early morning shot a couple weeks ago during a little birthday trip to The City.  We were visiting Fort Point, which was built in the 1850's and one of my favorite tourist locales.

Tennessee Chick runs the band of Photo Hunters...there are really great offerings this week for those of you who are as enamored of bridges as I am. (next week's theme is nautical....)

photo hunting ~ colorful

hosted by tnchick the photo hunt theme this week is colorful. This picture was taken on the stairway in the atrium of the SFMOMA (San Francisco Museum of Modern Art)...where I saw the Frida Kahlo exhibit...which was totally amazing.

photo hunting ~ bright

Last Sunday, after taking Lile home to Lake Tahoe....we took the long way through the back roads of Highway 4. Dropping into the valley we saw this amazing sunset. Although beautiful...it was created by the dense smoke from the many wild fires burning in this part of California. While the sunset was stunning over this farmstead...it reminds me of the devastation elsewhere....

(the photograph is totally untouched and un"shopped"...it portrays exactly how the sun looks thru the blanket of smoke that hovers everywhere)

It has been quite a while since I participated in Tennessee Chick's Saturday Photo Hunt. I have looking at this picture for the past few days....and thought it would be fit this week's theme of "Bright." Take a moment to visit some of her other photo hunters...

Photo Hunting ~ long
