The sunset was pretty, but there aren’t any good vantage points very close by. And by the time I found a decent place to stand, most of the pink was gone. So I walked down the street to see what I could capture. Yesterday morning, we were trying to stage food to enter a “starts … Read more
Photos this week are from The Kid’s school (took the camera with for pick-up one day) and from after Halloween. The lead photo is a stump that, prior to getting into this journey, I never would have noticed. But it makes a neat photo. Trash can. Not the best photo, but I thought the … Read more
There’s a park not too far from our house. It’s been closed for about 6 months to be redone. The Kid and I walked over the other day to check progress and to take some photos along the way. It looks like it will be opening soon, and we got some good shots.
Last week, I showed you photos I took at Joshua Tree on a long weekend trip. Today, a few others that I took while we were at Knotts Berry Farm. I didn’t take the camera in the park. We were riding roller coasters all day and I didn’t want to leave it in the cubbies. … Read more
Many school districts here have fall break. Mine is on a modified year-round schedule: teachers started in mid-July, students started a week later. By the end of September, the first quarter is over, and we get two weeks off. The Kid’s district has a one-week break that coincided with the second week of mine (same … Read more
This week, I messed around taking still life photos. Some of The Kid’s Lego, flowers from The Climbing Daddy, etc. I also messed with a setting in this post with regards to the size of the photos. If you notice a difference for better or worse, please let me know.
Aside from a commission to take some photos of Legos, I didn’t pull out the Nikon this week. (I will spare you the Lego photos!) The week upcoming, I have off, so there is at least time available, if I take advantage. But there are more shots from last week’s walk around the neighborhood. I … Read more
I took a walk through the neighborhood. It’s a route that I’ve walked, run, biked, driven hundreds of times. I saw new things. Now, things that involve critters wouldn’t necessarily have been there before, but these palm trees? They’ve always been stair steps like that. I just never noticed. (Not my favorite photo.) This guy … Read more
The Climbing Daddy, The Kid, and I took a hike up A Mountain, a little mountain by ASU. Steep but very short paved “trail” with dirt trail from the A to the top. Near the old flour mill. Nice that the weather is finally nice enough. Good way to end a weekend!
Well … I didn’t take any pictures this week. Not with the Nikon. I told you about the course I joined. Well, I didn’t watch a lesson last week. I didn’t take pictures last week. I didn’t run last week. (I did lift and climb, though.) I didn’t get enough sleep or eat very well … Read more
