I hate choosing

064:365 Timid is as timid does.

Yesterday, it was a cinch to choose the photo of the day. Today was agonizing. My daughter's class went apple picking and, because I volunteered, I got to spend a bit of morning time staring down at the Saint John River Valley in the mist. None of the photos are spectacular, but I like 4 of them a lot. I've made a choice but am tempted to change my decision.

I hate choosing 1

The ducks swam into the picture out of nowhere.

I hate choosing 2

The tree framed the horizon perfectly.

I hate choosing 3

The mist hung over the valley as if by design.

Truth be told, this week held very little fluff for me. Tonight all I wanted to photograph was the void.

The blurring says it all: my vote doesn't matter. There's really only 2 parties here in this province and one of them has all the focus tonight.

Kathryn and I saw this bit of garbage grubbing fluff on our walk home from book club.

My Friday was blue and the weather didn't help.

I really wanted this bit of fluff to look sinister. Note to you all: pink bunny slippers cannot look sinister no matter how much you manipulate shadows with a flashlight.

Defeatism

Yep, that's right, I've givien up on my own prompt. I did have photo ideas for pacifisism and vandalism, not to mention all those provincial election signs that are over town with their myriad of -isms, but, hey, life is busy and losses must be cut. Instead:
