And the winner of my 2014 photo calendar is…

If you enjoy my photos and would like to purchase some, I want to thank you! Simply visit my Zazzle online shop and browse the product offerings. If there’s a photo you would like to purchase but don’t see it in my shop, please contact me by using the Contact form at the bottom of my home page and let me know which photos you are interested in purchasing, and in what format / medium.

Do you remember when I was having a hard time making the final selections as I was putting together not one, but five different photo calendars for 2014? Do you remember when I asked for your help and offered a free calendar to one lucky participant, I would pick out of all the comments you would leave on each post (US only)?

Well, the calendars are done and the winner of my 2014 photo calendar is… Cee Ceuner at Cee’s Photography! Cee takes beautiful pictures of nature and the sights around her, including amazing dahlias. Cee lives in Oregon and gets to see a lot more green than me in San Diego, so looking at her pictures is a reminder that not everything has to look yellow and brown.

Cee, congratulations on your win! You will be able to choose one of the five 2014 photo calendars I have for sale, so I’ll contact you by email to get your choice and mailing address.

Thanks again to all of you who participated and helped me make the best choices for my nature photography calendars.

Remember that my 2014 nature photography calendars are available for sale on my online Zazzle store. All calendars are made to order in the USA so you support the US economy with your purchase, and a starving artist at the same time (me!). I appreciate all referrals through Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and of course your blog or website. Save 10% off my 2014 photo calendars (choose between five different themes) and up to 60% off on other products. Enter code HOLIDAYCOUNT at checkout; code valid until November 21, 2013, midnight.

A word a week photo challenge: lines of a pink powder puff bloom

A Word A Week Challenge: Lines

Today I’m participating in the A Word A Week Challenge. This week’s theme is “lines”. I encourage you to click on each photo to see a larger view. If you like what you see, please subscribe to this blog to receive updates of the new photos I post, usually 3 to 5 times a week.

For this “line” photo theme, I decided to use a few random photos I took recently, displaying the various aspects of fall in San Diego. I love the fall foliage of the sycamore tree captured in the right light. You can clearly see the lines running through every leaf of the tree.

The warm weather here means we get a lot of blooms in the fall, like this purple bougainvillea. Bougainvillea trees always seem to grow new branches at random heights and directions, creating a disorganized web of lines.

Finally, check out the many, many lines of this pink powder puff bloom. Can you guess how many lines that would be?

I enjoy the many layers of petals on a rose, especially when the petals themselves are layered with dew drops or raindrops.

The orange protea pin cushion flower has a spectacular set of petals that go from layer to layer.

I love the dripping layers of pine tree sap on the tree bark.
