reflector
Very well spotted and captured Lori ! A nice macro ! :)x
Lori Peters replied
Thank you, James. I went out to get some pictures today. I am sure glad I spotted these. The leaves are changing and Fall is almost here. I love to decorate my yard for Fall-pumpkins, hay, scarecrows.
reflector
It feels great to get a new batch of shots if you have been too busy with other things or the weather hasn’t been nice. You should take some shots of your yard when you have decorated it and add them to RB. If you keep the house well out of frame, it wouldn’t be giving away your location.
Lori Peters replied
I do intend to put up a shot of my house for an autumn picture. As long as I brush out the house number, it doesn’t worry me. The builder put up a lot this house model. xoxo
