This week’s DP photo challenge is “Half and Half”. It leaves room for quite a bit of creativity in the interpretation. I like that. Many things in life are half and half. Even today is half rain, half shine. Different from the day last winter, when the view from my terrace was half fog, half sky.
About half of these images are newer, the other half older. Almost half of you may have seen about half of them before. But because my hard disk is only working half and half since Friday, I can’t process brand new ones right now. I’m expecting a whole new hard disk to arrive at half week. I wish everyone a great week ahead, may there be nothing half and half about it.

So heartwarming Tiny. Bumble may be half human, but he is all soul 🙂
Love your creative captures!
Thanks Val! Bumble says “amen” to that. When something is half and half it calls for some creativity 🙂
Super post Tiny…I LOVED IT!!! Many blessings to you!
Thank you Lorrie! Blessings and hugs to you too ❤
Really lovely pictures, love the tri coloured heron’s colours, and beautiful reflections, yes, and we have a dog like yours who thinks it is human also:-)))
Happy you liked the half/half pictures. The Tri-colored Heron’s colors vary quite a bit in intensity, a few weeks ago I saw one with more “muted” colors. It’s funny how many dogs think they are human 😀
Wow, great photos!!! Hugs, N 🙂 ❤
Happy you enjoyed them, Natalie! Hugs to you too 🙂 ❤
Creative writing and photos! Bumble is as always; Precious! Sending a full hug! Have a happy week ahead! Koko 🙂
Thank you Koko! Bumble enjoyed the full hug 🙂 Happy week to you too!
What a delightful half n half series! Clever take on. Love Bumble ❤
Thanks Amy! Bumble is such a darling little guy, almost 15 and blind now, but enjoys life to the fullest. Today after dinner, he chased his little foxes around my office. He sends his love ❤
Sweet little Bumble is the cutest half and half. Love all your photos, Helen. The juvenile Night Heron is so gorgeous. 🙂
Thanks Sylvia. I’ll tell Bumble, he’ll sleep happy tonight 🙂 The Night Herons are such good photo models, once you get a clear sight into their hiding places, they just look at you and pose.
Wonderful selection of halves adding up to a whole lot of beauty.
Thank you Gallivanta! Bumble sits right here and says hi to you!
Sweet! To halves . . . and halve nots!
Thanks Nancy! Halve nots are often sweeter than halves, right?
Lovely, the toddlers too cute, the winter version not touching the ground is more or less perfect…hehehe.
Thanks! I trust they are cute…you’re the expert on that…hehe.
Beautiful series on this week’s challenge. 🙂
Thank you, happy you liked them 🙂
Beautiful half and half captures but when it comes to Bumble, it wouldn’t surprise me if he considered himself as a human that simply presents as a dog, lol! 🙂
Thanks Joanne! You could be right…but he’s not talking 🙂
Lol, the strong, silent type, huh?! 🙂
Love your inspired interpretations of the challenge, Tiny. Really good. Blessings ♥
Thank you Isabella, happy you enjoyed it. Blessings to you too ❤
Golden Hour and the little boys win my vote, what a good idea for a post.
The boys were of approximately same age, but the one running towards the water had probably just arrived from a much colder climate (last fall) and not yet changed to shorts and tee 🙂
An excellent set of pictures. I always like to see a heron.
Thank you. I love to see herons too…todays count was three 🙂
Very clever … I have been threatening for the past week
to get out to Bayport, with all of the storms we have been having,
the sunsets have been awesome.
Can’t wait to see your shots,
maybe in the half week ? ? ? ME
Thank you! We’ll see…hopefully I can fix my laptop myself, wish me luck 🙂
Love at first sight!
Thank you kindly, Eddie.
Aww, the pic of Bumble is my favourite!
Bumble say thanks, Nancy. He just finished his evening treat, baby carrots, apple and papaya 🙂
Yum!
Nice twist of the sky/land theme. Of course, Bumble takes the prize.
Thanks Susan. Bumble sits right here and likes your comment too.
I loved that you got the little boy mid-air. It’s a cute shot. I can easily picture them both running in circles, enjoying the surf and the sun, even if it was too cold for the one who was visiting.
Thanks. I’m happy you liked the little boys, I also thought they were so cute. I have a few other mid-air shots of kids on the beach…they are almost flying.
I am half thrilled, half delighted by your photos! 🙂 And hilarious how you can always tell the visitors in Florida. LOL
I’m happy to hear that, Amy! Yes, we have a way to tell 🙂
Such a sweet shot of Bumble! Great photos showing half and half!
Thanks Kathy! Bumble was “sleeping in” and I couldn’t resist to get my camera 🙂
And Bumble looks half asleep. 🙂
You are right! Dog sleep 🙂
Those two boys epitomize the half and half theme. The whole series is excellent!
Happy you liked the series, Hien. I thought those boys were too cute and clothes wise half and half 🙂
Clear shots, Tiny. The two kids got to me. 🙂
Thanks Celestine. I just had to capture the two kids 🙂
Aaaaaawwwwww, Both half’s of Bumble are way too adorable! Great post, Tiny!
That tri-colored heron! Who knew? Not me. GREAT captures!
The Tri-colored Heron is a beautiful, gracious bird – and small, which is not easy to see from pictures. Happy you liked my many halves, Elena.
