Theme ~ Looking Down
Chosen by Tom.
I smiled when I read the theme for this week, because it reminded me of a line from the movie Winnie the Pooh. Pooh is walking along with Piglet, explaining that "jag-u-lars call out 'Halloooooo!' and when you look up, they drop on you." Piglet responds, "I'm looking d-down, P-p-p-pooh!" Since our family is well-versed in movie lines, we are fond of often quoting Piglet's line.
Here is the image I chose for my header. I took this just a couple days ago; I arranged everything on my pretty china and placed it on the floor. I used my macro lens to capture the "looking down" shot.
On to the rest of my picks for Looking Down!!
I've been traveling/working alongside Fernando for a few months, so I've had some great opportunities for taking interesting pictures outside my normal routine. Some of them are featured below. Enjoy!
All the nature images were taken at the Morton Arboretum a few weeks ago on a very chilly afternoon.
I saved my favorite image for last. I was standing on a little footbridge, and shot down looking into the brook below. There were little orange buds from the tree, plus a few leaves, floating on the water. The reflection of the tree branches is there, too, making this a beautiful abstract image. It looks autumn-like with the orange color. I just love this shot!

I love the diagonal lines formed with the sidewalk and the cars. I don't like the snow.
