In this area of the land live a lion and me. I’m slightly smarter than him, he’s MUCH stronger than me. It’s an open land and we get the visit from several other smaller or not very smart animals. We feed on them, sharing the load. They satisfy us so I don’t need to bother the… Read more

She was a single mother of 4. Girl#1 and Boy#1 were good, healthy kids. Girl#2 was not healthy. Boy#2 was not good. He wasn’t bad either. But he had the bad habit of always getting in trouble. At 17 he was dating a crazy girl. She was trouble! Of the bad kind. They had a love… Read more

This is the third week of the One Four Challenge for November. For this week’s edit, I decided to make it look as if the picture was taken at twilight. I must confess I did not do great here, because the dark shadows may give me away, but at least I got more evening colors (or… Read more
