Wild Turkeys in Backyard

Here are some photos I took this morning.   I shot them from inside through the kitchen window so they're not as clear as I'd like. I had to work fast.  Usually the subjects are gone before I can get to them. If you click on one of the photos you can see them all in a slide show.

More Tomatoes Than I Expected !

There were almost the same number of tomatoes still on their vines, not ripe yet.  These photos show three of the four types of tomatoes I'm growing.  These came from only one vine each.  Each week or so I get another large harvest.  Sometimes one or two a day.  Other times almost a dozen.

I never expected to get so many tomatoes from just four vines!

Miniature Photographic Images

I'm not confident enough to paint my own ACEO, so I'm trying miniature photographs.  ACEO ( Art Cards Editions and Originals)  are miniature works of art about the same size as playing cards, 2 ½ X 3 ½ inches. I bought a tiny easel  to display them. This is also the size of wallet sized photographs.  At Walmart the wallet sized prints are sold as sets of two.  This means I must cut them into the correct size.  I can display them at home. I can give them away, maybe put them in a greeting card or on presents. I can trade them with other artists. Some people sell them but I'm not sure if I want to do this. There's still a copyright printed on them but it's almost impossible to read. Here is how they turned out:
