Dream Holidays — Lens-Artists Challenge #223

Hi all 😃 My entry for this week’s challenge, set by John of Journeys With Johnbo: Flights of Fancy.

My wife, Susan, grew up on re-runs of American 80s shows set around Santa Monica, Malibu & LA. This lead to dreams of visiting those places on holiday. Our first trip to the US together was to Houston, to A buffy the Vampire convention (yep, we’re nerds 🤓). After that, whilst still in the Navy, we made it across to Santa Monica & Malibu a few times. Susan has always been a huge fan of Ford Mustangs & we were able to rent them on our holidays.

No Buckets to be Seen — CFFC

Hi all 😃 My entry for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Pail or Pale.

I haven’t got any pail pics, so had to make do with pale pics instead.

These fisrt two shots have a background made pale by haze & distance.

These next are pale flowers.

Normally vivid autumn colours made pale by frost.

De-saturated in editing.

…and finally, a normally vivid Malibu sunset made almost pastel by smoke from wildfires.
