Neighborhood photos

Slumped over bag facing mechanical creatures.     A bit of pink in your green. 

Decorative wagon and flower. Mountain pentagons.  Two old houses. Been together a long time.    

A very short fence with no apparent purpose. The boxy shrub makes for a nice contrast.  The yellow plant bookends it, sandwiched over a concrete line.  Don’t forget the dog warning    What are these things?  

  Cala lilies have come to dominate our front yard.  Intersection of fence and gate. I walk by this construction nearly every day. 

Together.  In these tough times.   Bird sighting.    

A perfect juxtaposition of leaf shadows and multicolored fence.  

  Found Christo.   Over the moon.  Kid cage.  For the colors. 

Front yard knickknacks.  Fake grass.   

Neighborhood sculptures.   Flesh in ceramic.  A rose is a rose.  Across the street.    

Like my first tricycle.  Things like this become front yard decorations.   Green, blue, gray, white: a modernist composition.   The wheels carry the blue over the fake lawn.   A snake writhing in a picket fence.   Skeleton arising like Botticelli’s Venus.  Chickens of the neighborhood.     

Garden statuary.   Another form of garden ornament.   A house standing still.     Weed garden. 

  Graham and Sandy’s moose.  Spider web attached.  Tree creeping up a car.  Contrasts of green.   Permanently stored junk.  Or so it seems.   Easter ham.  Fruit surrounded. 

Little nature boy.  The flowers provide a context.  The little flag provides balance.  Collection of junk. This is actually on top of a truck. How does it stay up there? Neighbor’s front yard.  The lantern forms a focus.   Some unexplained orange to the right.  Theme of white.  Does the tent go with the truck?  Fleur de Lis, shovel and hammock.  Fake grass and purple house.  A cross formed on the lawn. 

  Seasonal photo.  Easter is coming.  Here’s a contrast of colors, textures and angles.   Two Easter baskets.  This photo reminded me of one of Karen’s paintings.  An explosion of flowers.  

These two seem to communicate with each other. Yet I’m not sure people still use satellite antennas for TV.  The house is old and a bit shabby.    Two more creatures communicating. A bit of old fashioned garden statuary.  The polished fountain goes well with the background succulents.    A crazy cat and a little cow creature.  The cat’s legs are a whirligig.  All in a sea of redwood chips.
