This week Ann-Christine invites me to have the opportunity to share my weird and wonderful images in this challenge! By accepting this challenge I will showcase some of my images of natural weirdness, items I found strange to photograph, and images I created through photo techniques.

Here in Sacramento we are starting to get a taste of autumn. On Sunday we experienced record setting rainfall. They called it a bomb cyclone. It was time to dust off those raincoats and galoshes. Since California has been in a drought many of us were caught off guard. My puppy Moxie has never experienced rain, and was not too impressed. She was glad to wear her raincoat for our many, but quick outings. After the rain I just discovered the weirdness of mushrooms popping up. One minute nothing, the next minute fully formed fungi. Don’t know the toxicity of these mushrooms, but I am taking no chances on Moxie discovering them.
The next couple of images are part of the life cycle of decay. There is a certain beauty in observing rot.







The following are strange images I came across.



The following images were created by painting with light.


Nice collection!

All wonderfully weird, Marlene. I loved the play with light and the flowers, and dolls – give me the creeps… The rusted iron – is of course a man/mankind, cold as iron, rusty and putting its head in a bucket when it comes to what we are doing to our beautiful planet. My interpretation…

I used light sticks from Michaels, and a blinking flashlight to light paint!
