“Forty-seven Years of Practice”
“Trees” I guess this is officially my picture of the day because it is the one that is a more accurate response to the day’s prompt – photograph a reflection in water. I do like the symmetry of this; I think I might like it even better in black and white. Hmmm, something to try. I did not see the heron when I was taking the photo so he/she is a little obscured. Oh well… I really like photo below. …
“Making Applesauce” I wish that I could say that I had harvested these apples from my orchard to make applesauce. Sadly, I did not. I had to settle for the apples at the grocery store, which are good right now since wee are in the midst of apple season. I decided to make a small batch of applesauce this afternoon. Applesauce is one of my favorite things. It fills the bill when I want something sweet and it is good…
“Rain and Bales” It finally feels like fall today! The temperatures didn’t make it above 70; the skies were gray; there was a breeze; and tonight, it finally rained. To me, the weather today was just perfect. Weber and I went to see Robert Reich’s movie Inequality for All this afternoon. It attempts to explain how this country has ended up in the economic mess in which we find ourselves. The movie is exceptionally well done. It looks at many…
“Hats Off” I’m all for any prompt that affords me the opportunity to photograph Weber and his hat. I think that I should be tipping my hat to him for all that he puts up with in my attempts not to miss a day of photographs. Every night involves time spent going through the day’s pictures and selecting “the one.” Then there is post processing. I try to do minimal post processing but I always have to resize in…
“The End, The Beginning, The Present” It is hard to believe that this is already the last day of September. Time is just flying by. I don’t like it! However, I do love this time of year. Fall is my favorite season – watching nature slow down and get ready to rest, seeing the beautiful bare forms of the trees, basking in all the orange of the falling leaves and the flowers and, of course, the pumpkins, breathing in the…
“Bokeh Bubbles” I love to take bubble pictures; therefore, throughout this year I have already taken many of them. I was trying to think of a different, somewhat creative approach to today’s prompt. I finally came up with an idea, but never quite got to it during the day. When Weber got home, just in case that idea didn’t materialize, we went outside to try some of the “normal” bubble shots. I quickly discovered that it was more windy…
“Notes, Notes and More Notes” I like writing this kind of notes…not nearly as depressing as all of the notes that I have to write to myself so that I don’t forget what I’m supposed to do, where I’m supposed to do it and who I’m supposed to do it with or for.
“Breathe On Me”
“The Twilight Zone” I am not happy with Apple right now. The changes that have come with iOS7 have made me quite an unhappy camper – and phone user. Well, that is not exactly true; I have not yet updated my phone. Weber updated his. Thankfully I looked at the changes on his before I made the decision to update mine. I am not one of those people that is resistant to change just because it is change. I am…
