This is the second photograph. My daughter has the same expression as the first one. And who is talking to her? That’s the head coach. Her expression and focus does not change.

concentrate
My daughter raced mountain bikes for her four years of high school. We have a club team. She looks just the same at the start of each race: focused. Concentrating. Ignoring everyone else. And I chose this photograph because of the next one…..
bears
Those aren’t bears! Oh, yes… this is the New Year’s Polar Bear Plunge and these intrepid swimmers are now Polar Bears. The plunge is at noon on Marrowstone Island. A cannon is fired and people jump off the dock and into the water, cold Salish Sound water, in the low fiftys. Brrrr. The ambulance crew stands by and family and friends to witness this transformation into bears for the day.
lines and colors
This makes me think of my daughter in daycare. She and one of the daycare personnel developed an art relationship. My daughter brought home pages with lines of color painted, parallel lines, color spectrums. I still have one on the wall at home.
spark
For the Daily Prompt: sparkle.
A graduation party photograph from two years ago. I love all the older graduating girls listening to the one younger. Doesn’t she sparkle?
tiller girl
My daughter is sailing FJs in college and racing. She informs me that she hated sailing when she was little, out with my father and me. My father took this photograph, in his Miller 28.
Hated it: well, maybe….
sky and water castles
For the Weekly Photo Prompt: serene.
