Weekly Challenge: Partners…

Posted on June 24, 2016 by mvobsession | Comments Off

Prompt: This week, share an image of partners. A pair, a trio, a sextet; people, buildings, plants — whatever you choose to shoot, give us subjects that are in tune with one another.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I dubbed these trees in a nearby park the ‘sweetheart trees.’ They had definitely grown together and become partners.

Months later after a harsh winter we found them like this..

I was truly saddened by this but at least they had fallen together, partners until the end.

Weekly Challenge: Abstract …

Posted on April 22, 2016 by mvobsession | Comments Off

Weekly prompt: Point your camera at something familiar and turn it into something else. Whether it’s a wall in your house, a friend’s arm, or a billboard seen from afar, we may or may not recognize what it actually is. But we’ll certainly discover something else about it in the process.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My choice for abstract are views through my rainy windshield. The first one is of trees along the side of a street. The second one is the view of a harbor.

Cherry Blossoms In Branch Brook Park…

Newark, New Jersey

Branch Brook Park is located in my hometown of Newark, NJ. Branch Brook Park was created in 1895 making it the first county park in the nation. It has the largest collection of cherry blossom trees in the world… more than Washington, DC and more than Japan. The cherry trees were a gift donated in 1927 by Caroline Bamberger Fuld. BBP is 360 acres and has almost 5000 cherry trees. The Cherry Blossom Festival runs for two weeks April 9 – 24, 2016. The Bloomfest is Sunday, April 24th… during which time the cherry blossoms should be at their peak
