One Community is a monthly photo project in which participants photograph their homes and community with a theme in mind. The theme varies by month. The goal is to both showcase similarities and differences in our communities worldwide – and bring us all closer together in understanding through art.
This month’s words were selected by Sue. They are: nostalgia, season, celebrate and Red, White, and Blue!
Nostalgia:
Nothing brings me home like a good board or card game. I am enjoying these summer nights, playing cards after dinner and walking Nelson. The fireflies come out and our yard puts on a show.
Season:
They don’t joke around about this being the garden state. I’ve never seen such color.
This is is the season for blooms, moss, and rain.
Celebrate:
High five! One of many public pieces of art in Morristown, NJ.
Red, White, and Blue!:
I dare say there is nothing more patriotic than the man who could have been king, but opted for democracy instead.
Thanks, Georgie!
