More of this and that. No real theme...
From 2006. I have no idea where it was taken but I used my Fuji S3.

I seem to have a backlog of things I've created but haven't posted. Posting on Instagram is great if the image is in landscape form. Portrait form gets cropped and I hate that.

Sunday Sky
No celebration here today; it's just another Friday. Except for the harsh reality of the US ending after 249 years.
Remember, in the days of yore, when we would physically flip a calendar page for the new month? I used to print calendars and send them to family and friends as Christmas gifts. The early versions were of my paintings. Later, I switched to my photos. And then there were calendars from your bank, insurance guy, auto mechanic, sports/swimsuit/naked lady issues.
On this July 1, I'll symbolically turn the calendar page.
BTW, no flags for me this weekend, no stars, no stripes. but that's another post.
When I checked the porch this morning after last nights storm, I found this tiny leaf had been blown in from somewhere.
We're rapidly sliding into July. Where did June go?

"Not having any burden or impediment"
I am trying to paint in a more loose style, instead of trying to get a photographic representation. It isn't as simple as it sounds but I'm enjoying the effort. My early paintings were filled with detail. Now, I'm attempting to 'suggest' color, shapes, the thing. Whatever it is.
Long ago
Since I hadn't painted in months, I moved my art table to another place in my apartment. That lasted a couple of weeks. I've moved it all back this morning. I'm feeling a little painterly.
These lemons were painted last year. I'm hoping the small sketchbook will be less intimidating. Fingers crossed.
Every morning I watch the sunrise via several webcams/YouTube at the Outer Banks, Myrtle Beach, and South Ponte Vedra beach. This morning, I saw tracks at South Ponte Vedra. At first I thought they were atv tracks. But they are turtle tracks!
When you're retired, Monday is just another day. It does, however, mean that the neighborhood is quieter.
From March 2003
Masks are back; at least for me. Especially since I had the flu a few weeks ago.
Pbase is, unfortunately, out. I'm not going to renew my membership. I joined in 2001, but I seldom post anything there and there isn't much activity. I have all of my galleries backed up. C'est la vie.
It seems I'm managing one post per month here. What would a photo of a shithole country look like? Because that's where I live now.
Instead, here's a floral.
