Tidepool Photo Play Day

Today was rad!
Amber and I met up at Julie's amazing Laguna abode, drank champagne and chatted for a bit.  We then headed to Coyote Grill for lunch.  After that down to Corona del Mar for our photo play date #2!  I was thrilled at the turn out!  Renee and her son, Brenda and her boys, Noel and Megan - then of course us three!  Below are all my photos no filter except the picture of the gang!

Photograph Road Signs

My 2nd Photo Challenge was to Photograph Road Signs.
I have found this to surprisingly be quite difficult!  We just don't have interesting signs here in the city.  But I did get a few.

Photograph a Bench

My photo challenge this time was to photograph a bench.  It mentioned photographing the same bench during different seasons.  Doesn't work for this challenge but what a great idea!  See below for my bench pics!  They all ended up being taken with my phone since I'd usually see a bench randomly out and about.  Looking forward to the next challenge!
