I couldn’t help myself! I am posting 2 images for my final entry in the black and white challenge that I received from the always interesting and informative Darwin on the Rocks and Around the World. Be sure to visit this blog… it’s like taking a journey to wonderful places!

The image above is very special to me. The title is “Father and Son.” That’s my father and oldest son walking on my favorite boardwalk enjoying time together. These are two of the most important, kind, loving, funny, caring men that I will ever know, and my heart was full just watching them walk side by side, hearing my dad impart his wisdom and counsel, and seeing my son listening so respectfully and attentively.

I want to challenge the AY-MAY-ZING Marcelo Leonard to participate in the black and white challenge. Rarely do I visit his blog without saying out loud, “Wow!” Take some time to appreciate his artistry and beautiful photography.

Here are the rules:

1.Post a different black and white photo of yours each day for five consecutive days.

2. Nominate a fellow blogger on each day to continue the challenge. See you tomorrow for the next post.

Finally, below is an image of the cornfield that is about a 3 minute walk from my home. It is very flat in this part of the Mid West, and I desperately miss the shore and mountains, but I have also grown to appreciate the beauty of the open sky and the many stunning sunsets that help me say good bye to the days…
