The monkey bars, the swings, the slides, and the fire poles. My son visited all of them multiple times on this summer morning visit to the playground. It was quite warm and humid. So was doing my best to stay relatively still and in whatever shade was available. However, with a two and a half year old, that is easier said than done. In one of the rare moments of stillness, I was able to capture this shot of the yellow bars and the open expanse of bright blue sky. Another in what is proving to be a long list of simple, minimalist compositions in this project. Day 311 of my 365 photo a day project.

"Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain." --Henry David Thoreau I am fascinated by decaying leaves. Like little leaf shaped skeletons, I still find them here and there, even in the dog days of summer. Perhaps that is mother nature letting us know autumn is just around the corner.

"By a Carpenter mankind was made, and only by that Carpenter can mankind be remade." --Desiderius Erasmus Just a few of the tools of the trade for a carpenter. I cannot help but be in awe of some of the things a woodworker can do will a saw and chisel and a piece of good wood. From the smallest little trinket to entire majestic cathedrals, the work of a great craftsman is pure beauty. Day 309 of my 365 photo a day project.
