Strolled this morning at 6am with the Bear and the hound.
My eye saw:-
Four kangeroos in a paddock, the morning mist rising around them.
Ochre and red pea-gravel under my feet.
A laughing Kookaburra.
Sunlight streaming through the leaves of Eucalyptus trees.
Dew like diamonds on the spines of a grass tree.

Now I stroll and walk with open eye.

cheers K.

What a wonderful idea...i took photos on my walk yesterday of 'decay' - i guess it fits in with this assignment! I so enjoyed doing it!

just finished reading your blog (each and every post), and this instant inspiration fell out of the sky into my head.
you really are the most inspiring person i've ever known.
thank you so much.

Oh Keri, there are soooo many leaves out there begging to be documented! I'll get to it as soon as i'm able.

I need an exercise like this to help me with a quest! I'm going to document them in the art book I'm making.

Thanks for this inspiring idea!

Yesterday I came across a sidewalk near my home that was littered with chestnuts. I picked up quite a few of them, marveling at their lovely shape and color. I planned to let Sophie play with them and to photograph them, but this assigment gave me the permission I needed to really go bonkers. Hence the creation of the "Great Chestnut Extravaganza of September 2006" photoset here:

Thanks for the inspiration.

I did it and it was fun! Thanks for making me remember that taking a pail to the beach and collecting shells isn't a pleasure limited to children.

Oh I love it. I am going to try to do this when I get out a little later. Thanks for the inspiration!!

Have a great day dear girl!
