ABC WEDNESDAY LETTER " A "



Well, here we are again for another round of ABC Wednesday.
I accept the challenge of finding new pictures for a letter of the alphabet every week.
The first photo is The Big Apple. That's the name for the awesome city of New York.



Here is another Big Apple.



No Awards for my photos at a local photo contest.



All I got was affirmations from my husband and friends for my artistic efforts.
To see what others have posted for the letter A go to Mrs. Nesbitts link on my sidebar.
Why not join in yourselves?
As always, enlarging the pictures will show the detail more clearly.

The Big Apple is such a memorable title. And your edible apples look delicious.

A was always for Apple in the alphabet books when I was a child and we never dreamt then it could mean anything other than the fruit.

RuneE said...

An artistic apple - appreciated!

Arg. I cannot believe you won no award. Cannot believe it. Hard not to love an apple, either type!

Manang Kim said...

I would love to visit the The Big Apple someday. Thanks for sharing!

Great shots and wonderful post!:-)
Have a great evening!

Well, I for one think you deserve an award for those beautiful photographs! I just scrolled down to see your posts on Haiti--these photos are remarkable and heartbreaking at the same time knowing the devastation that this country has suffered. Let's hope that all the snafus in the efforts for relief get resolved quickly.

Vicki ~ FL said...

Gordon said...

I love your picture of NW, though I'm sure I couldn't live in such a big city.

If I was the judge you totally would have gotten an award : ).

I have never had a winner picture at I Heart Faces if it makes you feel better. I lose every week!

Amy said...

Sue, The Big Apple photo would make a great "yellow" statement too - with all those taxis! Great photos - affirmations are important!

Roger Owen Green said...

They look award-winning to me.

Oh, and i lived in the Big Apple, albeit for a short time.

FYI- I'm part of ABC Wednesday Team this go-round.

Joy said...

Love the big apple photo and the yellow taxis. There is a late night radio slot here with the Gabby Cabby from New York so although I've never visited I know a lot of about it, LOL. Best of luck next time with your pictures.

Willa said...

The Big Apple, of course! Great sets of photos.

Carol said...

This weather has played havoc with my computer.
I was sure I had left you a message last night, but can't find it today.
You know, dear, you are the reason I'm doing ABC Wednesday.

Love your other pictures of the faces, and I scrolled up and down your posts.

Wonderful!

Sometimes, affirmations from people who matter to us are better than awards.

I love your pics, you have an eye for beauty.
