Captures. And A Few Words.

SOOC Sunday~Frog and Peony

Photobucket
Linking to SOOC Sunday at Jan’s blog Murietta 365

I am sharing with Jan’s SOOC~straight out of camera. No tweaking was done to this photo. Honest. Cross my heart. I did take it to Photobucket to size at 800×600.

  2. That’s a great shot, Pix, but I’m not sure if I can comment on that. I’m too busy being jealous that your peonies are blooming already. My peony plants are only just now starting to pop out of the ground.

    • Janice and I thought they took foreveah to bloom! I was getting a cranky on because I didn’t have any peonies and everyBODY else’s were bloomin’! They may be late where you are but you will be enjoying yours when ours are just a picture memory!

    • Thank you Isobel! It was rainy, dark and dreary all weekend until yesterday at four and then the sun came out. I was happy to see it. Our weather is messing with my mood!

      • Tell me about it! It is a beautiful day here today, but I understand there is more gloomy weather in store tomorrow.

  7. Beautiful SOOC photo Pix! The warm lighting really compliments the frog’s slightly green complexion. ;-) But, the peony is just too gorgeous… a perfectly lovely capture!

  8. love the flower and the way the light diffuses coming through the blinds.

  9. Beautiful! I love the “layers” of the lamp’s warm glow with the glowing peony below and even further below, the top of Kermie’s eyeballs glowing as well……super duper composition!

  10. Very nice, warm photo! You know, you can change the size of a photo in WordPress. After you insert it in your draft, just right-click on the picture. You’ll you see the “mountain” icon, click on that and go to advanced settings. You can change the photo size there! Easy-peasy! Hope you’re having a good Sunday!

    • No. I didn’t know that Dianna! Thank you so much, I will have to upload a photo and try it out :) Thank you!! Sunday was rainy, stormy and chilly and then the sun came out at four and warmed up and it was a nice evening. Hope you had some sun. We have a repeat of rainy, stormy and chilly this morning. Hope you have some sun today!

  12. very beautiful and romantic :)

  13. What a cozy, cozy corner Pix! Now I will be able to picture you sitting there reading, having tea, or whatever. Yay! Margie

    April 29, 2012 at 5:45 pm

    • I do spend some time there Margie. Reading my Nook, watching the birds, talking to CH and sipping some wine at wine time. We live on that porch, we don’t need the rest of the house. Well, the toidie is a good thing. :)

  14. That look like a lovely sitting spot Pix. I would fall asleep there.

    April 30, 2012 at 2:01 am

    • It’s my favorite spot when I can’t be outside. I have been known to snooze there Christina :D

      April 30, 2012 at 7:34 am

  15. That’s gorgeous, Pix. The perfect spot for reading or enjoying a cup of tea . . . or wine time.

    April 30, 2012 at 11:37 am

    • Hi Nancy! I am sitting here right now. Can’t sleep and I am catching up on blogs. I love the porch!

      April 30, 2012 at 11:26 pm

  16. I like the SOOC concept. Great photo it must be a wonderful spot to relax and daydream while looking out of the window.

    April 30, 2012 at 12:36 pm

    • Hi GB! I thought I would give the SOOC concept a try. I think I am going to like it. I will see next Sunday :)

      April 30, 2012 at 11:27 pm

  17. What a pretty photo! Looks like a great spot for reading, or for working on the laptop or just simply gazing out the window.

    Isn’t this weather the pits? We had rain most of the night in my part of MissouREE. Enough, already! Hope your day is a good one!

    April 30, 2012 at 1:02 pm

    • Well Cheryl I can’t sleep and I am sitting on the porch right now! Yes this weather is the pits and more tonight and tomorrow morning. If it starts getting all rumbly I am heading for bed!

  18. Beautiful phot Pix, but I just have to ask, where is Spuds Bunny? Kermie?

    May 1, 2012 at 7:55 pm

    • Kermie is right next to the Peony, is that what you meant Julie? Suds Bunny has been watching too much TV and eating too many chocolate covered graham crackers. I need to make him go outside and get some fresh cow manure air and spend some time in the flower beds weeding to earn his keep!

  19. Love this vignette. What a pretty lampshade! Great shot.

    May 4, 2012 at 1:09 pm

  20. I wanna sit there in your lovely reading corner with Kermie, may I? :)

    May 7, 2012 at 1:16 pm

  21. A lovely capture! :)

Just say "hey"! Say more if you want, that's good too :)
