Welcome to Week 48 – V Week: Pearls' Coastal Capers!

Featuring: Vernal, Vignette, Vanilla, Vacation, Venie's

VERNAL
The first flowers I saw of the VERNAL season 2022, taken in South Dennis on April 2nd.

VIGNETTE, VANILLA
Just me playing around with filters again! This is a photo of an antique center in West Harwich that I took last November. I thought it might be fun to play up the antique theme and give the photo a vintage look so I added a VIGNETTE overlay and a VANILLA filter. It would be more believable if it weren't for the late model SUV parked out front. Oops! Well I had fun working with filters anyway

VACATION
I visited Aiden of West Yarmouth last September to view their entry in the Town of Yarmouth's Annual Sand Sculpture Trail and while there I noticed how pretty the landscaping was in the front of the building. It's a fairly new VACATION property and I was curious so I did a little research. Everything I read seemed so interesting … charismatic abstract design, boldly curated meals, and a hip boutique atmosphere. Now if they could just pick it up and move it a couple of miles closer to the ocean! lol

VENIE'S
Sunrise at Uncle VENIE'S Roadhead Beach, Red River in Harwich. As you can see from the beachgrass in the foreground this was a wintertime photo. I look forward to returning in a month or two when I expect the landscape will be even more beautiful.

Thanks for joining me for Pearls' Coastal Capers - “V week”!

Great set of pictures, I always enjoy seeing your selections. I especially like the one of the beach.

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.

    Quoting  :

Thanks! The idea of turning it into a vignette didn't occur to me until well after I took the photo. Had I thought of it when I was there taking the photo I'd probably have waited a little bit to see if the SUV was going to move. It's OK though .. I had fun playing with the filter.

Thanks! I remember the day I went there. It was a beautiful winter morning. Can't wait to return later this spring!

Thank you! It's great that your area has lots of flowers sprouting up! I had to work hard to find these but that was about a week ago and over the past week the local wildflowers have been coming up in more places. I love spring!

Love your crocus photo. Crocuses bloom very early here where I live. They always been one of my favorite blooms of spring. You always do a nice array of photos Pearls. I think I have missed some of your Foto-Friday postings.

Thanks, Shartaun! I took this photo very early in the season and had to go searching just to find some flowers in bloom. I enjoyed the hunt! I apologize for taking so long to reply. Usually I see a notification when a new comment comes in but this time there was no notification. Hope you're doing well!
