What a topic, Cee. I recently spotted a convocation (gaggle? troop? parliment?) of the ultimate lawn ornament: garden gnomes. But I probably contravene against decency standards, the way they looked and what they did. So I settled for the second favourites, at least around here: frogs. Like you I experimented with selective colour. I find it interesting that you left the cat in monochrome and highlighted the colours around it.

Love the cat! We don’t have a lawn, therefore no entry from me this week. I don’t think lawn ornaments are a big thing over here.

I like how you left the green in the grass and in the cat’s eyes. It is a pretty compliment.

I like the way you add color to your black and white. I haven’t bothered to learn how to do that. Now I wish I had, It would have been nice to keep the red, white, and blue in the scarf on my turtle.

Your splashes of color are a bright spot in my day today. I like the blue birds & leaves in the second photo, but the cat steals the show.

You had me stumped with this challenge, Cee, and then I thought ‘really big lawns’. Cheers!
