Personal Photo Project of the Week #132 Alpha
The Girl in the Blue Skirt Beta – 2012
Even though my lily patch didn’t take off quite like I had hoped this year (due to neglect and heat), all of these lily pictures are either my lilies or my Mom’s lilies. I didn’t go trolling for lilies any place else this year. Although I did check out my grandma’s lilies, but I missed my window of opportunity on those this year.

I suppose I should have given you some warning that you would be looking at picture of Naked Ladies. I hope that didn’t offend anyone. Okay, I don’t really care if it offended anyone.
More lily pictures on the morrow.
State Fair 2012
Now that the State Fair has all but concluded, I thought I would share the picture that was accepted into this year’s Photography Salon:
Truth Perception
Micky gets the assist credit on this photo. He is the one that plucked this lotus from Lake Augustin and placed it in my care. Then I set it on fire.
I would reveal the other 3 submissions that were rebuked, but I don’t want to hurt their feelings and I’m afraid that couldn’t take the public humiliation. My pictures have very tender souls.
For those of you wondering, I will not be doing the Pufferbilly Day Photo Contest this year. I’m either retired or semi-retired from that contest. In fact, I’m pretty sure the State Fair Photography Salon is the only photo contest I will pursue in the future.
However, my mind has been known to change every now and again.
Having other people select my entrants was kind of fun.

Inferiority Complex – 2012
This week’s Personal Photo Project was to photograph my Mom’s hibiscus.
The rest of the Inferiority Complex – 2012 Series:
My goal is for next week’s Personal Photo Project to be lilies, but realistically it will probably be sunflowers.

Personal Photo Project of the Week #129 – Alpha
Nature’s Amen – 2012
As Boone’s premiere hollyhock gardener I felt that I better take more photos of my hollyhocks this year than last year. The week’s Personal Photo Project reflects that commitment.
More from the Nature’s Amen – 2012 Series:
More hollyhocks tomorrow!
Personal Photo Project of the Week #128
Happy Things – 2012
This week’s project was to photograph coneflowers. Coneflowers are probably a top 5 flower for me. Admittedly, they aren’t much to look at, but I find the transformation the flower makes over its total lifespan to be fascinating.
The rest of the Happy Things – 2012 Series:
Next week’s Personal Photo Project of the Week will involve either hollyhocks or sunflowers.
Personal Photo Project of the Week #127
Unceasing Effort
I’m sure that it is well documented that I love alliums. They are definitely in my top 5 favorite flowers. Probably top 3. This week’s project was simply to photograph alliums.
The rest of the Unceasing Effort Series:
I was fortunate to grow some alliums this year. I hope next year to be able to grow even more. As I have some decent plans for my flower beds next year!

Not entirely sure what next week’s Personal Photo Project of the Week will involve. It all depends on what I can get edited. Best guess is that it will involve aliums.
