This week’s Foto Friday Fun includes 6 images chosen by readers picking a number out of my photo archives.
Yogi chose #714, “which is the number of home runs that Babe Ruth hit (I think).” I know nothing about baseball but could almost believe that Berta had that many flowers around her house before the fire.
Sherry chose #393 and I know she’s a tree hugger. Looks like these aspen were hugged a lot by snow which is why they are curved.
Bibi chose #135, “the weight I’d really like to be again, but I think that’s history.” In my herstory, as a child my Mom accused me of “eating like a bird.” If she, or I, had only known that birds eat more than their weight daily. I’ll bet this European Roller in Kruger National Park South Africa eats lots of large insects, small reptiles, rodents and frogs every day.
Arija chose #898, “Just because it is a good-looking number.” And these are good looking classic cars seen at the North Rim of Grand Canyon.
Diane chose #599, “for absolutely no reason at all!” It doesn’t require a reason to dance either. This young woman, part of the Soaring Eagle Zuni Dance Group, performs a social dance at the Annual Native American Heritage Days held at the North Rim of Grand Canyon.
Firefly chose #372, “Just a random number pulled from a hat.” Snow is a rather random occurrence in Yarnell, thank goodness. Yet this blanket of white from March 2012 almost buried the old horse surreys yard art.
My choice this week shows the end of fall here in Yarnell reflected in the wash near a friend’s house. Cool mornings just above freezing and days only in the 50s tell me winter is on it’s way to 5,000 feet. I hope to be gone before the snow yet have to wait until mid-January.
Thank you for joining in Foto Friday Fun. I really enjoy digging through my archives and pulling the stories from my memories. To join in the fun for next week leave a number between 100 and 900 in a comment and maybe see your chosen image next week.
Do you have a favorite from this week?
Look for other photos posted on Geogypsy Facebook page not usually seen here.
It’s Black Friday! [Makes scary face.] And if you’re like me, not out shopping, looking online for gift ideas please think about using the Amazon link in my sidebar. If you make a purchase I’ll earn a few pennies at no extra expense to you. Thank you and Happy Holidays.
Thank you Gaelyn. I love them all, you know I love flowers, birds and vintage cars as well as dancing girls 🙂 and fall landscapes but most of all I love SNOW! So how could my favourite be anything but that.
This week if possible, I would like to sit on the fence so I chose the 400, the mid-way number of those you offered.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving weekend!
I figured you like to see snow. To me it’s much better in photos than real. 🙂 Have you down for 400.
I like all the photos, but especially the hugged tree! And I’d forgotten about the ‘eating like a bird’ thing. I do plan to eat like a bird (a real bird) this Sunday when I celebrate Thanksgiving.
Next week’s number for me will be 555, for no reason. You always see it anyway on those fake phone numbers in movies…
Yea, I ate like a bird yesterday and this morning I’m still stuffed. Have you down for 555.
Yours is a great choice. Beautiful reflection and photo. Really like my snow pic as well. 🙂
My number for next week is 745. I’m not really into numbers so yet again its random.
Thanks. I like that one too. Have you down for 745.
Thanks. I really like that reflection shot too. Have you down for 745.
Sorry if this comes thru twice. Didn’t look like the first one sent.
They are all good shots, I really liked the European Roller because it is so unique and your chosen Yarnell shot cuz I like reflections.
I choose 300 for my next. Because that is the dividing line between good and great hitter’s batting averages in baseball.
Those South African birds are quite exotic looking. Have you down for 300.
Those aspens are weirdly shaped after the snow. Gaelyn , I can’t believe that I commented last week but forgot to leave a number. BWAAAH! Before it eludes me again (my brain is struggling to cope with all I have to do at this present time!) please let me choose a number: 799. It’s just a number so’s I don’t forget! Have a wonderful weekend. (((Hugs))) Jo
Figured you must have been on overload last week. Have you down for 799.
A favorite picture of all those beauties is really impossible to say but I sure do like mine. I’d love to give that angled tree a hug. Was it really snow piled up that caused him to seek a new direction toward the light? Put me down for 127.
When the snow gets deep the aspen saplings bend under the weight then in spring grow upwards again. I call them ‘dancing aspen.’ Have you down for 127.
Beautiful series of photos, love the old cars. How about 111 for next week for no particular reason 🙂 Have a good weekend Diane
I just knew you’d like those old cars. Have you down for 111.
I like snow (in pictures) and that is a beautiful one. Makes me a little sad to think about your friend’s flowers … I hope she will have just as many around her new home, I’m sure she will.
I’m with you on the snow thing. You better believe she’ll have flowers around again.
