Americana on Lenscratch

I don't know how I forgot to mention on the Fourth of July that everyone should have a look at the lenscratch blog for a wonderful collection of images curated by Aline Smithson. Americana was the theme as interpreted by various artist photographers. The naturally cohesive assemblage came together beautifully and I think it would make a wonderful book. I am very happy and honored to be amongst such a talented group of gifted artists. Thank you Aline.

A woman's work is never done. So true, so true. I couldn't resist this shot of my cleaning efforts on the stove top in Geneva. I was vigorously cleaning the stove top when I was struck by the patterns left behind by the soap. I ran, got my camera and immortalized the very Lichtenstein moment. I just love it.

Its official. The lazy hazy days of summer are upon us. I haven't posted for a while because I've been busy doing the things people do in the summer. Mainly swimming to get away from the heat. It sure has been hot here in Florida. The amazing thing is that it is even hotter in the North East. Hard to believe but true. The photos above were taken at the Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach. Such a lovely place.

Happy Fourth of July

Fourth of July Weekend

© 2010 Constance Hobbs. All rights reserved.

It's the Fourth of July weekend here in America. Independence Day. The day that commemorates America's independence from Great Britain and the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. It's a weekend celebrated with firework displays, parades, barbecues, picnics, concerts, sports, ceremonies, speeches and most popular of all, plenty of beer. Next to Thanksgiving, I think it's one of the most popular weekends. I've never been in Florida for the fourth of July and the weather today is not cooperating. Of course, it may not last and the fireworks aren't until tomorrow night, so here's hoping! I wish everyone a happy fun filled fourth.
