Recommended Posts

Pictures taken between Monday, September 16 and Sunday, September 22.

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

A rare few shots from a Monday - since I generally am a weekend shooter, unless I'm on vacation.  I took a few snaps while wandering through Epcot Center's Living Seas exhibit on Monday, September 16:

A beautiful leopard ray, and a little toddler enjoying the scenery on the other side of the glass:

On a hot September day, it's nice to stop by France's ice cream shop:

Chief Pontiac was an Ottowa Indian born in the early 1700s who rose to prominence by organizing a coalition of tribes to resist the incursion of the French into the Great Lakes area. His impact on North American history is noted with cities in Michigan and Quebec named after him and many artistic renderings of his profile gracing the hoods of cars built by the division of GM that bore his name. This 1936 Pontiac coupe hood ornament caught my eye as Ron and I walked past the classics at the 2019 Route 66 Cruisin’ Reunion on Friday night. Today’s cars are good looking for the most part but an old coupe from the ‘30s or a mid-’60s Cobra are truly works of automotive art. 

 

Hail to the Chief
