Amnesty!

I have not been doing very well lately and consequently have not been keeping up with [community profile] shutterspeed, so this challenge is pretty much made for me. Sigh.

One for decay/collapse, and a few more beyond the cut...

Amnesty Photos!

I've been swamped since school started, and to top it all off, I lost my camera battery charger! But here are a few photos just in the nick of time for the amnesty window. One above the cut, two below.

Butterfly
Prompt: Animals - I took a number of nice butterfly shots back in July. This was one I hadn't uploaded at all yet.

decay in an urban setting



Everytime I see one of these, I'm amused that they are still security chained to something.

Peas in a pod.

I found local peas at the market last week. They were time-consuming to shell, but tasty and the pods were interesting to look at.

Closeup / Decay

I keep going outside to look at the tomatoes, which are producing a ton of flowers:

close up on four yellow flowers on the end of a tomato branch; the rest of the tomato plant is out of focus

two more closeup, and one decay )

pics from my dad's garden

The last few days have finally been nice and warm so yesterday I picked the year's first strawberries.

Wagon

One nice thing about living in a rural area, is I have LOTS of great things to photograph. The property owner of the little trailer park we live in collects old farm equipment. Most he fixes up and sells, some is just left to simply grow old with the help of nature.

decay / close-up

New member. Hello everybody.

So decay. These are windows in typical Berlin pre-war apartment buildings, right side renovated and pretty, left side not so much.

Decay/Collapse

Rotting Packet

Saw this on our walk this morning and thought it fit the "decay/collapse" prompt. Its an old packet of cigarettes that someone littered, that has started to rot and degrade.

A blackened and molding peach leaf lying on my deck. In the background, small seedpuffs from a dandelion can be seen.

A challenge doublewhammy! My peach tree has peach leaf curl, so it is currently shedding black, moldy leaves everywhere. 

New apertures!

Your new Apertures are Macro/Close Up and Decay/Collapse! Go take some photos!
(My Nikon digital has a setting for macro with a symbol of 2 little flowers.)

Feel free to post your photos from the last aperture through today if you have not already done so.

Is there anything else you would like to see from this community?
