Round Robin Challenge: FREE

Round Robin Challenge.  Free.  Not many of my photographs really express "FREE", so I have to use a little imagination here.  You will truly discover what a zany woman I am when I finish this challenge.  Mowing the lawn, with gas push mower, can be quite B-O-R-I-N-G ... ask any teenager!  I have about 1.41 acres to mow, and the riding lawn mower was still not cranking, so it was "huff and puff" much of the afternoon.  Ho Hum ... I was fully protected from any aggressive allergens .. I was really HUFFING and PUFFING!  THEN, I came across masses of mushrooms under the old willow tree.  Well, I stopped to look.  Of course there was cut grass obstructing my view .. so I ran in the house for a water bottle AND my camera.  I washed off the mushrooms, then picked a few dandelion flowers, composed my salad and SNAPPED the photograph.  NO.  Something was still missing.  I dashed back in and came out this time with a pair of hashi (chopsticks) and holder.

 

Arrangement: my fresh organic salad, free for the taking!  Who says yard work has to be boring!!!  PLEASE check out these other entries http://roundrobinphoto.blogspot.com/2006/04/round-robin-challenge-free.html#links

Heh heh heh.  Very creative, and very pretty!  But I bet you did it at least partly to take a break form the mowing.  Right? - Karen
