ABC Wednesday - Year 2 --"W"


Go here if you would like to join us for ABC Wednesday. . . Mrs Nesbitt

Last week I used my waterfall shot in VERTICAl photos so I could show my wildflowers and weeds this WEEK BUT then I panicked because I had planned to use the WORLD WAR II mural photos for "W." What to do, what to do!

I decided to make collages of the weeds and wildflowers and show the mural photo of the WAR in original size. . . Ü

WEEDS and WILDFLOWERS without names:



It doesn't do the weeds and wildflowers justice to make them so small -- some of them were just beautiful! I will have to make a choice next time, I reckon.

World War II MURAL on railroad wall. . . It isn't finished -- the artists ran out of funds and I reckon will do the rest when they get enough money together again for the paint. It is a volunteer activity. The photos that are taken at a slant are because there used to be a building close by and I couldn't take the full view up close. Today, they have demolished the building and put in grass and flowers and a walkway and there is a parking lot for the Columbian newspaper's new office building and the Hilton Hotel property so the area is very nice place to stroll through. This spring, I helped weed the area when we had a cleanup Vancouver day.
