The Week In Seven Photos
I don’t miss the extreme cold, but I do miss the frosted windows. A wonderful start to the day – coffee, deer and sunshine! The Christmas cactus is blooming. “I have no idea who placed that bird treat next to me!” Cheers to having four NFL playoff games this weekend that I actually want to…

I Would Love To Join You Outdoors, But It Is Too Cold!!!
After two weeks of standing outdoors on various occasions freezing with the birds, it was finally time to shoot through the window at a lovely winter visitor while enjoying a hot cup of coffee and Gabby barking very loudly at my elbow.

Some Days I Just Need To Let It Be

A Few Photos and Thoughts
The chances that I will enjoy a movie based on a book I loved reading is similar to the odds of having winter and spring in the same week. Amazingly both occurred this week with an ice storm and temperatures in the 50s and enjoying the movie A Man Called Ove as much as the…

Shadow Puppets On The Moon
It could be the effects from the full moon last week, standing out in the cold for weeks or the celebration after the exciting Green Bay Packers win over the Dallas Cowboys, but for a moment while looking at these photos last night the shadows reminded me of a boy reading and Rocky shadow boxing.

The Moon and Venus – January 1, 2017
For the first few nights of the New Year, Mars and Venus is visible in the sky with the moon and I was excited for the chance to capture photos of my first planet. When I went outside on Sunday night, I was surprised at how bright Venus was by the moon, but I was…
