Holding On

This lone gum ball is holding on as tightly as winter seems to be. Wish I had a more festive photo for Mardi Gras...but it's been a busy day and I'll have to go with the gum ball shot. :)

Three good things:
1. (Shrove Tuesday) pancakes for supper tonight
2. Getting my mom's new Kindle set up. I left her reading...she loves it.
3. Happy Mardi Gras! Laissez le bon temps rouler!
Very nice composition with use of negative space and processing.
How nice that we have progressive mothers. Mine got an iPhone today... major step after a dinosaur phone she had.

@anazad511 An iPhone is next for my mom, Ana...maybe next month for her birthday. Her old flip phone is so outdated an not at all user friendly. She's mastered an iPad (sort of), her new Kindle, and the DVD player. I think she's ready for a smart phone. :)

I love your gumball.....there is much beauty in simplicity. I only wish I could get my parents to use a Kindle but they refuse to even try new technology. I did get them a Jitterbug cellphone last year but that's as far as they're willing to go. Good for your mom....a willingness to try new things is a good thing!! :)

I love your "gum ball" shot. We have 2 sweet gum trees in our yard and they are all over :-) I like how you used your imagination in getting this special shot.

I love the composition...the way the branch slices through the upper left corner and the negative space. The processing is perfect for this shot.
