M week in the alphabet photo class

I'm up-to-date with my posting in the class, now I just need to get out & shoot some more letters!  

Top left green M:  This is just as shot.  I'm not sure why those two brown lines are there, the rest of the letters in the sign didn't have them.  Maybe because it's a capital M?    Other letters were lower case?

Middle red M:  also just as shot.  It came from a stenciled sign on some very weathered cement.

Bottom blue M:   It was a blue M on a  plain white background, so I decided to add some texture to it and played a bit with the color.

Campo CA

Saturday was train day. We drove 1-1/2 hours east of San Diego to the town of Campo  --  we had about an hour's  ride on a train, then the kids heard a story about the Red Candy Caboose, and were able to go on the Caboose for their own candy!  

The link will take you to the information about the Railway Museum & rides they offer.  Campo Depot

If you're wondering why the kids all have ski clothes on, the temp was 42 degrees that morning.

L week in the Alphabet class.

The blue L is a photo of part of a sign -- all done in glass letters.  Taken at Spanish Village, Balboa Park (San Diego).

Seaweed L was photographed at Mission Bay.

Carol Leigh's Alphabet Class

Fun stuff -- and after 26 weeks of searching for  alphabet letters, I'm sure the habit will last way after the class is over.

Alphabet class

The 26 in 26 class is still going on with Carol Leigh .   I'm a bit behind posting, so here are my K's that I submitted.  

Ocotillo at sunrise

I'm still working through Anza-Borrego Desert State Park photos.   I liked this profile of the ocotillo plant, taken at sunrise at Culp Point.

Protea

My grocery store was selling these flowers -- how could I resist?   It's spring and I guess I needed a little reminder, because the weather (still) has been cold, windy and rainy.
