52 Photo Challenge: Week 38-Faces

“I know faces, because I look through the fabric my own eye weaves, and behold the reality beneath.”—Kahlil Gibran, Faces

This week my assignment for the 52 photo challenge was to focus on faces. While some of the photos here fit the challenge, especially if you define sunflowers as having faces, most do not. I hope you’ll forgive me this week.

I’m a huge fan of pumpkin patches and have decided my 4-year-old nephew and I will visit a different one every Friday from now until Halloween. Part of these adventures will be to find the most sincere and sweet pumpkin patch in our area.

We started with the opposite of that, the very commercialized Bishop’s Pumpkin Farm. While I know it’s a favorite of many, I find it overwhelming and far too expensive. The train was fun and we loved the corn pit, but it feels like it’s grown too large and is trying to be too many things. Next week we will try a small family farm in Folsom.

Let me know if you have a favorite photo and I hope you have a wonderful week!

  3. Don’t care bout exercises, just love them all. What’s not to love. Wyatt, still such a tiny person, but look inside that slight frame and all those thoughts, all those feelings, waiting to leap. Leap Wyatt, leap! And the animal face I also adore, could near make me believe in reincarnation and who, who is that inside there. Might someone say the same of me? Wonderful work, wonderful of you to share.

  10. Wonderful photos, Bridgette. Not sure I can pick one favourite as they are all excellent, however, your nephew sitting on top of the pumpkin takes me back to happy carefree days! Of course, Spiderman with pumpkin just me smile 😉😊

  13. Is that your nephew? He’s gorgeous. The winner!

    Pics: #10 oh yes! I imagine all those faces following me as I walk the narrow path. Lovely.
    #8 gorgeous color and each little wart (like those on my Goya—bitter melons) could be a little face. ALSO, I love the Myrtle confetti that fell on it. I know that’s Myrtle! It made the little faces all the more adorned in the autumn lamplight
    #3 well because how could you not love that face. But in truth they’re all winners. 👏🏽
