Shapes and Textures

Sometimes the best leaves are those that already left the tree and are curled up on the ground.

Colors and Designs

Near the end of the season, the colors and textures to be found around us changes. Above, it seems that this bush is holding a protest sign in an attempt to slow the season change.

After a Rain in the Front Yard

I just love me some water beading up on a leaf and these Lady's Mantle really shine at doing this.

Out for a Dog Walk

We took the dogs out for a walk several times this summer while the family were having a little time out together. Along th way, I found a few things to stop and photograph.

Flowers and Leaves

Exploring the world nearby has become a routine thing to do since the covid lockdowns. This means that going for walk to take pictures is a challenge since everything looks like it did the first 3 or 4 times I took the same picture. With care, however, I can find some old things to see afresh.

Along the Streets on a Shunny Day

On a sunny day, sometimes the best place to take a photo is the deep shade where the shadows are less stark.

From Back When There Were Flowers to See

Today, I bring you the official debut of my new camera and lens. The Fuji X-T5 with the 16-55 mm zoom lens. With higher resolution than the X-H1 (40MP vs 26MP) and a better quality lens, it really feels like things have changed.

What I Could Find While Walking with Seamus

'Tis the season for cherries so, naturally, I needed to get a photo of a few.

A Photowalk with Seamus

Back in the bright past, when the sun still shone regularly in the sky sans clouds (you'd call it summer time...) Seamus and I went for a photowalk together. We bought Seamus a camera because he was interested in mine and now he and I will occasionally go out taking photo together. Above is a St. John's wort in front of the house that I love to photograph after a rain. I thought you'd like to see it when the sun is out and it is in bloom.
