    Laine (me, I) has begun to set up in the Historic Market in the Plaza de la Constitution in St. Augustine.

     

    On Sale are photos of St. Augustine and from my travels near and far.

    This is a month to month commitment, so stay posted for next month's news.

    I'll be there Saturday this week, July 4th and next Saturday as well, July 11th.

     

    Also, I have developed some prints from my favorite blog posts and here is a sample of that!

    And Drum Roll please…

     

    Laine's new artistic venue,

    painting on silk scarves.

    Always a friend of the silk scarf and bandana, this was an easy transition to make.

    Here is a sample of the first crop, hanging on the line to dry.

    Wish me luck and maybe I will see you there!

    The Schooner.

    The setting sun.

    The incoming tide.

    A day ends.

    Night begins.

    Scrawney little pink tipped green stems open up to the world like this!

    The sea oats are greening up again.

    There was a chorus of frogs in the marsh as I drove by,

    praising the rain.

    Summer's in full swing.

    Heat lightening,

    silent and beautiful.

    Thunder followed, but no rain,

    not the first night.

     

    Clouds 6.10

     

    The rain came the second night,

    finally.

     

     

     

     

     

    The heat lightening looked a little like this, lighting up the clouds from within but with slashes of lightening bolts every now and then.

    This shot was taken during the day, but darkened to look like night.

    Shading the afternoon sun.

    Still hot in the shade

    Hammock  waits for evening breeze.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    A dip in the ocean was just the ticket!

    Pair pelicans

     

    Friends, paddling along together through life's currents.

    It's a calm evening and mild in between the storms and troubles.

    There's peace and quiet and a kind of welcome ordinariness,

    a rightness about things.

     

    All's well.

    Water, the most yielding and the strongest of nature's wonders,

    is a chameleon.

     

    Pond 06.10

     

    Reflecting the sky, it is all kinds of blue.

    (all the bumps in the shot are turtles!)

    Looking down it takes on the color of the sand and leaves and turtles!

    Maybe my phone really is smarter than I am…

    It took this photo when I wasn't looking.
