This week's theme is wild. I really wish I had some old photos of my university of high school days - there were many wild times there but alas I had no camera at the time (unlike today with cell phone cameras at the ready to record every embarassing momment for history - hmmm - perhaps that isn't a bad thing!) and even if I had had a camera I'm not sure I would have been in a condition to use it. That having been said I turned to nature for my 'wild' theme shots . . .

Wild!

Your shot of the bird in the wall is really cool, Jerry! The Elephant seals look like I feel after making one of your recipes and pigging out on it!

Great shots all. Thanks for sharing! Love those shots on the rocky shore. So many ways you can look at the wild theme here.

I agree with you - I'm glad cameras weren't so prevalent in my younger, wilder days, LOL.
Love these photos! The seals are so cool looking, and the little bird is sweet.
Happy weekend!

Yeah, no remaining pictures of back when I was a 'wild thang'. :)
The pictures are great. You caught both wildness of the shore and the animals.

I have documented in pictures my young and wild days because they were spent in Mexico and my friends and I always carried a camera. (ahem, we were supposed to be studying ...)
Love the shots of the seals and that's one cute bird hard at work.
Happy Sunday!

Love your photos, Jerry. I want to see those evidences of wild times as a student!!!

Your're brave Maria - I shudder to think about photos existing from my youth! LOL
Eden - I don't want to see them - I am even more sure that you don't. :-)
