Wine O'clock

It's been a chilly, rainy Friday so I'm enjoying a glass of Boya Pinot Noir... from Chile. 😆 "A dusky dark ruby" is a good description.  Cheers! 

Hiatus

I've decided to take a break from posting photos on Facebook, Instagram and Pbase for the remainder of November. I feel like I'm posting just for the sake of posting something. But I'll still be snapping and may or may not post something here. 

Would you still take photos if you couldn't show them to anyone?

Rain Delay

Rainy morning, then temps falling to the 20s by morning. 

Meanwhile, although I have unpacked most boxes, I continue to search for miscellaneous 'things'. I predict this will never end. 

Dawn's Early Light

I'm a bit obsessed with capturing the sunrise. One of these days, I'll learn to just sit and watch.

A lesson in camera choice

I would not have believed there would be such a marked difference between my phone's camera and my Fuji . As I wrote that I realized how simple-minded it sounds. (I'm being kind to myself) I thought of my phone's camera as adequate. And it's certainly convenient as my phone is almost always within my reach. 

With the time change, sunrise has to be the first thing after I get out of bed. The first photo was taken with my phone. A few minutes later I looked out of the window and yowsa! I grabbed my Fuji and headed outside. 

I hope I've learned my lesson.

Sunrise in Two Parts

The clouds eventually gave way to the sun... mostly. I also realized that I haven't even begun to pull together photos for a calendar.  Oops. 

Sunday Evening

For so many years, Sunday evening found me at the airport, heading out for the week. As we flew across the country, I'd look down and see houses with the lights on; people gathering at home. It always made me feel a bit sad. I don't miss those days as a consultant.
