Even though I’ve been taking photos every day, I’m so behind on going through them all, organizing, and editing them! Such is the life of a RI family photographer during the busy season (and no complaints about being busy!)

Now that it’s two months later, I figured now was as good a time as any to post some photos from August and reminisce on summertime and warmer days. A lot of the photos I took in July, August, and September consisted of me having just a small amount of time each day to take a photo, and that can limit creativity some, but I worked with it.

A lot of the images were taken in my house or yard, but not all. One day, my faithful dog companion and I ventured to Jamestown, which is a Big Deal because I’m terribly afraid of driving over bridges (but I keep doing it hoping the fear will someday go away….it hasn’t…yet!) Also featured is a farm fresh watermelon, which I really miss right now. Take a look below to see the first half of August.

This little fly or whatever was so tiny and spent a lot of its energy flying back and forth from leaf to leaf.

I could really go for some watermelon right now.

If only this prompt had been in September or October, I would’ve had photos of actual mushrooms.

8/10/19 • Wish

Probably all of us wish for luck, and look for signs, like finding a four leaf clover somewhere in the bunch. i still haven’t found one, but I won’t stop wishing.
