You Capture/ still life

This week on You Capture at I Should Be Folding Laundry---

Still Life

Both of these photos were taken here at Girasole Farm.

The rose is kinda a "loner" rose, still hanging on to the Rose Tree out in the front of the house.

The barbed wire is wrapped around a fence post down in the front field, it's been there for a long time.

Renee's Garden Photo Contest

Hurray! My Sunflower photo won 2nd place in Renee's Garden Photo Contest 2010.

I have over 5000 pictures stored on my computer and this is my favorite.

Not only is it a beautiful picture, it is the inspiration for the name Girasole Farm. Girasole is the Italian word for sunflower.

This is my "moment" of fame, right? ok- I might be exaggerating a tad bit.

Speaking of "moments" last night I had my interview with Dori & Val from More Hip Than A Hippie

the Podcast will be aired next Wednesday October 20th.

Dori & Val were amazing at making me feel comfortable in front of a huge microphone looming in front of my face. By the time the interview was over I felt like we were old friends.

Huge hugs to my daughter, Kristina, for pushing me to do the interview and going with me to hold my hand.

Today I am attempting to take a few pictures of the Farm to design a new banner that is more personal.

It is also time to start putting the Summer garden to bed.

Right after our trip to the local Pumpkin Patch.

Happy Gardening
