Sky
Herhimnbryn gave me this assignment.
Overheard conversations while buying the groceries. Post them on your blog.
Buy sticky labels, write your wisdom on them and then stick them in public places.
More moods of Moby.
Photograph the sky from your balcony every day at the same time for a week. Save the images. Make postcards of the images.
Be silly.
I haven't been in public places enough to do the stickies, but I will consider this a long term project. As soon as I manage some wisdom, too. People in grocery lines here don't really converse, except on their cell phones. Haven't overheard any good conversations anywhere this week. Have done several Moby Moods, as you may have noticed. And I am always silly, proof will have to come later. I wanted to ask my fellow cat volunteer to take a photo of me while I brushed one cat in a lower cage, while the cat in the upper one played with my hair, but she had her hands full herself.
I got five out of the last seven days. On Saturday, we were at Roller Derby, so I missed my 1915 time slot. And one day I just forgot until it was dark. Here are the five, though. Not sure how to make postcards, so I post them here. The sky is lovely, the frame for it, not so much. Still, I have a lovely view of the sky that my own eyes edit quite well.

Sounds interesting, the photo assignment, if not necessarily the sky, maybe as trees and shrubs come to life, maybe a photo every two days for a month. Hmm....
The sticky labels idea is great - something akin to random acts of kindness perhaps? Depending on what one writes, I suppose.
I love the idea of photographing the sky. Might take it up myself. The photos are arresting.
I do like these images z. Bands of colour. That blue beautiful. I may have to store a couple of them in my head for a mosaic!
If not postcards, then how about print onto good photographic paper and hang all vertically on a wall in your home?
Ah yes, my English eye is very pleased by such sequential depictions of the weather.
