Debbies quotation inspired image
“If you’re not living on the edge, you’re taking up too much space”.

See that little yellow dot almost in the middle of the photo? That’s this bloke
In the sky, on the edge

Blue sky
Jez’s Fan Of…..#65
Jez’s fan of…… is blue sky backdrop. I must admit I am a fan of blue skies as well
Always good to get that outline of a building
A Black Kite flying is best against a blue sky
Our Moon in the day is wonderful with blue instead of black
Just a hint of blue sky for a contrast
Small so the blue sky is big
Airplanes are always winging off into the far blue yonder
Soaring Ibis wheeling about a blue sky
A bit of contrast for a Hibiscus flower to stand out
The next blue sky is a spider for those who just can’t, but zoom past for a great Aussie song
OK here comes the unusual yes it’s a Golden Orb Weaver Spider

Fear
The Ragtag Daily Prompt Wednesday: Fear
What did he do?
What made him do it?
The plane was in
the air
Followed by another
Was it his time
Did he fear what
he was going to do?
And then it was time
no time for fear
Go now!
Jump
Open the parachute
The exhilaration of floating
But then
the roar of the motor
The smell of exhaust
Suddenly amid the spirals
he was there
floating within the circles
It was time to descend
Flag unfurled
helping steer ground ward
He had done it
The faces looking upward
Smiling
He was safe
He had no fear.
*If you look at the second photo, the second last spiral just below the plane, you can see a yellow dot of the parachutist

What was that?
It’s not often I do a combined photo challenge.
So we have Sheryl’s Daily Word Prompt: Vanish
and Nancy’s Photo a Week Challenge: Timing is Everything
and Franks Tuesday Photo Challenge: Overhead
One day I was sitting in the garden
When from overhead
I heard something buzzing
growling, perhaps a deep throated roar.
I looked towards the horizon
Nothing
I looked towards the mountains
Nothing.
Hold steady I said
The sound began to get louder
That strange buzzing
growling, perhaps a deep throated roar.
I held my camera to my eye
Hold steady I said
Timing is everything
The sound was almost overhead
I waited
from the tree tops
The sound was there
I held my nerve
I saw it as it flew overhead
Timing is everything
Quick get that shot
before it could vanish.
The sound started to wane
That strange buzzing
growling, perhaps a deep throated roar
In great excitement
I looked at my camera
opened the screen to reveal……….
Timing is everything
when something is overhead
otherwise it will vanish.

Blue and Yellow
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Blue and Yellow
The cute little flight simulator at a recent airshow. No I wasn’t allowed to get in.
I thought I had more blue and yellow flowers. At least I found one of a Wandering Jew plant
The Ponytail trees have an abundance of yellow flowers and lots of bees

Curves
The word prompt from the Lens-Artists: Curves
The old wagons curves
Lots of curves on succulents
The Red-naped Snake showing some curves
Pythons always have curves when they are having a nap.
The gentle curves of a butterflies wing
Curves in architecture – the Sydney Opera House
Bobbin loved to sit on the table
The air show pilot filled the air with curves
