Sharon's Week 19: Line, Line, Everywhere a Line

Lines

I know that the lyrics are "Sign, sign, everywhere a sign" but the song was going through my head all week with the word line in it so that just had to be my title.  I say all week but I didn't actually get the camera out until Thursday.  I had ideas in my head of freshly turned farmers' fields but I looked all the way to Elliot Lake and back and no farms are at that stage yet.  I thought of railroad tracks heading off into the distance but I just couldn't find the right spot for that around here.  I thought of paths meandering away but I didn't go anywhere with meandering paths this week.  I was getting worried but then I decided to relax my definition of "lines" a bit and I headed to the greenhouse yesterday.  While I was there an older couple came in.  I heard them chatting and I wondered why they weren't wandering around...they seemed to be staying in one spot for a long time.  When I came around the corner and saw them, they were unpacking their lunch.  I thought that was such a cool idea...to have lunch in such beautiful surroundings...a little warm maybe, but beautiful.

Anyway, I have a few photos in which lines figure prominently but I also have some for which you have to be flexible.

Parallel C-shaped lines...


Lines forming a starburst...


Parallel triangular lines...


Lines that make me think of aliens...


Zig zaggy lines...


Soft curvy lines...


Parallel diagonal lines...



Lines of defense...


Lines commonly seen in summer...


The line of a simple machine...


Lines topped with tulips...


A line of raindrops...


That's all folks.  Happy Victoria Day weekend!

  1. I don't know what else to say but WOW! Wish we had a greenhouse nearby where I could go and take pictures. The lighting and the colors are beautiful. I love the tulip with the water drops, the parallel C shaped lines, the starburst, the parallel triangular lines and the soft curvy lines best. The zig zaggy lines remind me of a dinosaur for some reason. Well done Sharon!

  2. Seriously incredible week, Sharon! Such a great interpretation of the assignment! You may just be part genius...I see why the one set of lines remind you of an alien - they are slightly alien-like. The raindrops, zigzaggy lines and hotdogs are my faves. Great week!
