Thank you for all the new views and likes from last week, it helps keep me inspired.

Sunday, 09/28/2025: Posted photo — Bricks.

For the photo project that ended today, the subject was “Soundtrack”. I was having difficulty coming up with a subject.

I was cooking at the grill today and saw the bricks on the ground. The Pink Floyd song “Another Brick In The Wall” came to mind. I do not really like Pink Floyd too much, but I needed a subject, and I saw the bricks. I was hoping that I would find a brick wall, but we spent the day at the lake, and I was not able to get a photo. We live in an area with brick houses that pre-date the American Revolution.

Monday, 09/29/2025: Posted photo — Sunset.

Sunset was a strange color tonight. It was also one of the better sunsets in a while. The clouds were forming a vortex, pointing to something out west.

Sorry about the quality of this photo. The sun was setting quickly and took a quick photo while on the move.

Tuesday, 09/30/2025: Posted photo — Fire in the Sky.

Once again there was a very red sunset. During my hike, I saw the sunset blazing in the trees. It made the trees look like they were on fire.

I hope this photo does this justice, but photos never do justice to seeing nature live.

Wednesday, 10/01/2025: Posted photo — Texture 1 – Pineapple.

The photo topic this week is texture. I will be taking texture photos during the week. During my shopping trip, I saw pineapples and took a photo of the texture of their skin.

Thursday, 10/02/2025: Posted photo — Texture 2 – Dragon Fruit.

Today I took a photo of some dragon fruit to show more texture. I will be picking one of these photos for my submission. I will keep looking for more textures during the week.

Friday, 10/03/2025: Post photo — Mums.

Mums are hardy fall plants. At this time of year, almost every place that sells plants has mums.

There are two different types of mums: 1) “Garden” mums (found at garden nurseries) are hardy perennial plants. 2) “Florist” mums (often found at grocery stores and flower shops) are treated as decorative annuals and not grown to survive the winter.

I will have to do more research on the difference between the “garden” and “florist” varieties.

Saturday, 10/04/2025: Post photo — More Mums.

Here are more mums that I saw today. These are also “garden” mums.

That is all for now. Until next week, be safe.
