Weekly Photo Challenge . Close Up

Once again, life gets in the way of just making a simple blog post! I’ve been busy travelling, visiting with friends, enjoying the long summer days, and of course, work.

I’m unfortunately planning a big move back to the US in a few weeks. 😦 More info about this later.

For now, here’s my post for this weeks Weekly Photo Challenge.

I’m using a few of my older photos for this weeks photo challenge.

The first photo was taken in Berlin during a Holi Festival. I can still feel the excitement as the DJ counted down to the moment we threw our colored powder as high as we could. We all cheered, laughed and danced as the colors settled down.

The second photo was taken in Hawaii during the winter surf season. The waves roared and thundered. Spectators sat silently on the beach to marvel.

The third photo was taken in Berlin during a festival called Karneval der Kulturen. At the end of the day-long parade, drummers got together and played for the happy, dancing crowd.
