7-Day Nature Photo Challenge ~ Day 7

We were nominated by fellow blogger, ProjectRelish, for a seven-day photo challenge, so we will be posting one of our nature pictures every day for the next seven days.

For the final day of the challenge, we’ve decided to use a picture from our recent trip to Iceland.  Once again, there were many photos to choose from and it wasn’t an easy decision.  We chose this particular picture because it showed some of the varied scenery that the island has to offer.

7-Day Nature Photo Challenge ~ Day 6

We were nominated by fellow blogger, ProjectRelish, for a seven-day photo challenge, so we will be posting one of our nature pictures every day for the next seven days.

For day 6, we chose a photo of a stately tree in Warwickshire, England (can a tree actually be stately?).  Our friends in Europe are probably looking at the tree and thinking, “there’s nothing particularly interesting about that tree”, but for us, we don’t see trees like that, especially in Colorado.  It was such a beautiful autumn day and the blue sky just seemed to wrap itself around the top of the tree.  We found the English countryside to be absolutely beautiful and we’re really glad that we didn’t limit our visit to England to just London.

7-Day Nature Photo Challenge ~ Day 5

We were nominated by fellow blogger, ProjectRelish, for a seven-day photo challenge, so we will be posting one of our nature pictures every day for the next seven days.

For day 5, we decided to turn our attention towards the beach and Cabo San Lucas.  Since it is snowing here in Colorado today, the images are even more enticing to us; we wish were sitting on the beach sipping a Mai Tai.  We decided to use a sunset picture, but we had a hard time choosing.  We’ve included a couple of other pictures that we considered as well.  What do you think, did we make the right choice?
