I love having the time to just walk around and shoot. It’s my happy place.

Sometimes you see the shot, sometimes the shot finds you. All you have to do is take the time to look.

We have friends in town and have been out and about visiting museums, gardens, and cultural centers. It’s been wonderful, with lots of much needed photography time. The struggle has been going through pictures and developing after a long day. I’ll be behind in processing for weeks at this pace!

Hope everyone is well. Thank you for stopping by for a look.

I was in a bit of a rut today. With lots of work around the house and no good new areas to shoot, it was time to get creative with a tree I’ve photographed many times before. I added a little logo this time, just for fun. I thought it paired well with today’s black-and-white theme.

Doctor visits, errands, honey-dos, dogs to entertain, grandkids to FaceTime, but still got in a nice 4.5-mile walk. OH, and the best news of all - My A1C came down substantially. I’m very happy today. ☺️
