Feb. 7th 38/365 "Fellow Travelers" Today was a traveling, "pick-up" day . . . pick up meds, pick-up firewood, etc. Took this with a little Canon Powershot because it's the only thing I could hold with one hand and keep my other on the steering wheel. Yes, I'm following in Rick's footsteps ...

"Aspen" . . . next letter "N"

Feb. 6th 37/365 "Juniper Berries in Winter"

Well, it's been kind of quiet around here so I thought I would stir the pot a little. A lot of us dabble with HDR --some of us take it to the extreme, and some of us like the subtle, realistic effect. The below quote is from an article entitled "Knowing My Limits --Why I Don't Do HDR"...

Feb. 5th 36/365 "Visitors from Afar" I live only 65 miles from Roswell, the UFO capital of the world (as in the "Roswell Incident")

Feb. 4th 35/365 Sometimes you just have to bag the photo and go with a moment or a blessing. Absolutely nothing good or special about this photo, which I took from the front seat of my truck tonight, but what made the difference to me was what I felt. This is a "count your blessings" photo...

Feb. 3rd 34/365 "Capitan Mountain Range " -- at 6 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT!!! We southwesterners are not cut out for this kind of temperature . . . nobody is happy . . . not my animals, not even my truck! I believe I've changed my mind about a cruise to Antartica! LOL I know there's a little...

Does anybody out there use twitter in a business sense? Follow, unfollow, retweet. I'm not sure what the benefit is, except I sometimes find an interesting link within the tweet. Would love to hear if and how the rest of you use it, if at all. Best Regards

Feb 2nd 33/365 "Twilight"

Feb 1st 32/365 We were out playing in the snow while it was snowing. I've forgotten how much can go wrong when you're trying to take a photo in the snow . . . my glasses were fogging up, my lens was getting spots, my boots were too tight with the socks I had on, I STILL did not have fingerless...

I know we have Australian members on the forum and was wondering how you all are doing there . . . anybody in the path of the cyclone?? Well, I guess if you are, you won't be online (Duh!). In any case, we hope the weather settles down some for you. Stay safe. Best Regards

Jan 31st 31/365 "Old Man Winter . . . hiding in a tree . . . INSIDE my house"

My 3rd entry:

Jan 30th 30/365 "Dreaming of Spring" . . . that's what I was doing, all day

Jan 29th 29/365 "Fort Stanton Ruins" Really cutting it close tonight. Went back out to Fort Stanton and climbed around in some "forbidden" places. This place has quite a history . . . buffalo soldiers, POW, merchant marines. Now so much of it deserted and locked up. Probably haunted, too.

Thank you so much for your beautiful comment. It is MUCH appreciated and valued. Here's your photo the way I think you "saw" the scene. The whole purpose of post-processing is to make the photo look like what we saw when we took the shot. Very minor adjustments (lightroom or CS5) make a world...

Jan 28th 28/365 "Leaving School" Thought I would do a little "photojournalism" since I was at the mid-school today. 7th graders leaving school at the end of the day. Need I say more? (except that no one was hurt in the making of this image! LOL)

I straightened your lamp, Jack. Now you don't have to wait till spring LOL (Sorry, Jack. Evidently I have nothing else to do tonight except play with somebody else's photos!)

Jan. 27th 27/365 "Zocca's" Blue, sunny skies, ham pannini, and a great cup of coffee for lunch today. Life is good! :D
