{your own backyard}

Shoot the stars off in your own backyard Don't look any further {carly simon}

this town i live in is really unique. we have the ocean, the beach, the river,... and an incredible eclectic community of artists and musicians, photographers and writers, dreamers and doers. i was noticing while editing some photos recently, the funky little jewels that caught my eye just by going for a walk to enjoy the weather. so much uniqueness is found in yards. people are clever. i love how someone chooses to express themselves through art or whimsy, nature and inspiration. here's a few shots from the yards of those who have something to say. i don't know who you are - but i certainly thank you for making my walk that much more interesting!
