Picture-A-Week 2024 - Week 02


Recommended Posts

Pictures taken between Monday, January 8 and Sunday, January 14.

 

Week two already! Where does the time go?

 

Take time to stop and smell the roses...then photograph them!  If it is winter where you are, you can take that metaphorically.

 

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Patience is a virtue, or so I am told. Patience didn't really play into this little drama since we weren't exactly sitting around wringing our hands in anticipation. Our casual patience paid off Sunday morning with our late-blooming Amaryllis finally letting loose with a half-dozen magnificent blossoms. When it was just a bulb, it was planted in a tiny six-inch pot with a little potting mix in the bottom. It is still sitting precariously in the same pot even though it is now 2½ feet tall and over a foot across the six blooms. We are still hoping that it is a metaphor for the new year. If it is, 2024 will have a slow start but finish up in a spectacular fashion. I should clarify that as spectacular in a good way. Armageddon could also be described as spectacular.

 

Worth the Wait

Great pictures Scubcruiserx2! What cruise line did you use?

 

 Thanks , it was the NCL Star . We had originally book it to Iceland and Norway in May but we couldn't wait . When we saw the same room 9006 at half the price we jumped on it . The best room that we ever had ! A video of it with 2 balconies , one forward facing and one Starboard .
