    Inspiration comes from within

    This "trash to treasure" is discarded magazines ready to go to the recycleables at the local dump, that I cut out pictures of to create this collage entitled...Inspiration Comes from Within. I frame them when I am done...some using recycled frames.

    windy water

    While out taking photos, the wind was really blowing. I noticed the fall leaf blowing across the water amongst the lilypads. It would have blown farther but it got hung up on the lily pad. You can see the wind ripples in the water as well.
