Orphaned Photos 1

I fairly recently posted random photos that were left lingering in my blogger folder. Well, I have some more, and I think I shall now call them orphaned photos and number the posts like I do with Caturday.

Way back in the middle of April, I took some photos of flooding in the park, but I never got around to posting this one, which I like quite a lot.


In late April or early May, Sue finished her second afghan of the winter.


Since then, she has turned her hand to jigsaw puzzles. I think she's presently working on her third or maybe fourth. It's a good thing we don't eat at this table.


Signs of Lanark County was the first puzzle. It was missing one piece. You can see a gap over the Lanark 511 sign in the bottom left photo. I had AI fill it in in the bottom right photo. Sue did know ahead of time that the piece was missing, for Shauna did it first and informed her.
This redwing blackbird photo is also from late April. For some reason the red epaulet didn't show up, so I posted it in b&w back then. Only later did my plodding brain realize that I could fill in the red. It is still better in mono, but ya gotta wonder why it took me so long to think of the fix.


I will leave off with one more orphan . . .  for now. It's a more recent photo of a rabbit in the park. It didn't stir when we walked by and stopped to shoot it, so to speak. For some reason, the light and colour were really off, so I made all but the rabbit b&w.

    The first shot in negative mode is definitely moody. Makes me wonder what it would look like the opposite. Funny bunny who just sat there! Gosh, that puzzle is huge and difficult. Lovely afghan that Sue created! I deal with orphan photos all the time, and it suits my personality I think...a hodge podge!

    I would have never thought of adding the red either. I love the rabbit photo, it looks pretty relaxed!

    Don't you hate it when there's a piece missing like that? The infuriating thing is, it must have gotten lost and be around the house somewhere (I don't think they ship them with missing pieces), yet it's impossible to find.

    I needed the close up to spot the missing piece. :( Apparently, I'm not very observant!

    I worked on a few jigsaw puzzles over the winter and may return to them as I have several new ones awaiting. There is a free borrow policy at the senior center, but you never know when a piece (s) may be missing, Orphan photos are what I have many of and so I may do a future post to clear some out, thanks for the idea.
