I was on my usual walk today, but when I got down to the Green Bridge I heard noise ocean-ward, and when I looked over there I saw that the surf was up. LOL!!! That decided the rest of my hike - I headed . . .

I never go out the door without my camera. No matter where I'm going - to go grocery shopping, to the library, even just around the corner to the convenience store. The camera is always with me. . . .

On today's hike I bumped into some fellow birders down on Hazard Rd. by Gooseneck Cove. One of them regularly comes to feed the ducks cracked corn in the winter, so when they see his car they come . . .

So Bob (elizabeth e.) is off this week due to the annual Winter break in public schools. I'm also off, indefinitely, due to being unemployed. In January I cashed in a whole bunch of points for Borders . . .

Walking through Ballard Park today, I noticed groupings of tree trunks. So, being who I am, I made a photo shoot of them. Back home and doing the processing, I found they worked best in black and white. . . .

We got some minor snow in the past week, but I haven't had a chance to go photograph it in my favorite spots because I was working the whole time. I was off today and I figured I'd better get . . .
