TGIF OT picture - same same but different

Post by Maggy »

Wish everyone a good Friday and a great weekend. This weeks OT could be to show two pictures of the same thing, that look very different from each other.

My example is from the deck of our villa/apartment in Coral bay. The first is taken during the first days when it rained like crazy (April 2007). But when the sun came out - wow, what a view.

First day:

Third day:

Please show your pictures, that could apply to this topic.

It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

lol - I have. I wonder how long time until it's completely down. Maybe like that single palmtree in Sandy Spit that now is gone.

If I can't get a picture of it in April, I might have to borrow yours. I want to frame the 3 photos together. I think it would make a great conversation piece! :D
