Day Eighty Eight Not much time tonight Storm coming. University of Virginia School of Law

Euphemisms Dream Job Believe it or not, this is a co-worker who DID doze off at his bench. I got the shot, AND his permission to use it here.

Day Eighty Seven What to do? What to do? I was trying to capture the dogs, and then couldn't decide which one to put up here for today. I decided why play favoritism. First is Charlie the Patriarch. Older than the hills and almost as cranky as me. Then comes Dakota. Sorry for the...

Day Eighty Six Gorgeous day today (if you stayed inside and looked out). Sunny, but real windy and it was a cold wind. After work I took the long route to my car (50 extra steps). I got some shots and couldn't decide which to use so I used them all. I found this Iris, it's petals all being...

Day Eighty Five Beginning to think that Photograpy stinks. After a morning of rain/drizzle/overcast weather, the breezes calmed down, and the sun started to peek through. Finally a chance to attempt some "BUBBLE" photos. Dug out the Bubble blowing machine my wife bought last fall... Dang...

Day Eighty Four This morning, it rained. Then it rained more this afternoon. I decided I needed a snack while watching a movie. Orvil Reddenbacher and the Microwave. Two really great inventions.

Day Eighty Three I normally photograph flowers in front of where I work. There is a flower society that plants and tends to a flower garden every year. This year it's not doing too well. I was hoping to catch each new type of flower as they bloomed. So far only a couple, they'll all come...

Day Eighty Two Today is early. This was spotted behind me on the wall at work. I just got my hands on a friend's 35mm f1.8 so I grabbed the camera. For now, this will be called "sumkindabug", but I'm sure Pete will clue me in as to it's real name. For the record... I think it's called a...

Day Eighty One Anyone remember the "Herd Of Ducks" (day 56). Today we have a Herd of Chickens. I had to settle for this shot. I got the camera ready to go this morning, and low and behold... ONE battery bar. Onto the charger for the day. Tomorrow I plan to loan my 105 f2.8 to a friend who...

Day Eighty 250 Channels, and there's absolutely nothing to watch.

Day Seventy Nine Shylo Again. The neighbor comes over and throws the ball for Shylo. After a few tosses, he goes back in and Shylo sits and waits for his return. I had to call her at least a dozen times to get her to turn and look.

Day Seventy Eight Went all over today. Spent a fortune in Gasoline. I took pictures of Civil War cannons at Chancellorsville battlefield. I took pictures of flowers here and there (mostly daffodils). Didn't like any of them. Finally, we took the grand daughters to a park where they could...

Day Seventy Seven I drove up on the mountain today. The area is called Skyline Drive in the Shannendoah National Forest. Most of the overlooks were closed for spring repairs, which greatly disappointed me. There was a lot of fog hovering in the valley below but I couldn't get a good place to...

Day Seventy Six Remember "PI" Day? Here is a sample of what happens after Pi Day.

Day Seventy Five I was waiting for my wife to pick me up after work and spotted this first real sign of spring here. Actually I've seen several signs, but couldn't stop the car to get out the camera. Anyway, these little flowers were only buds yesterday.

Day Seventy Four Today is 3-14. It is known as PI day because the value of PI is roughly 3.14. To be a little bit more precise, it is 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510. To get any closer, you'll have to ask our resident Math Genius. In honor of PI day, I took this photo...

Day Seventy Three Well the squirrel preempted me from doing this shot, but to fulfill my threat on day Seventy One, here is the "Baby" Rhino that was embedded within the large jigsaw rhino/

Day Seventy Two All day I struggled on what to try shooting. Some of the things I saw in traffic were a no go for obvious reasons. I pulled in the driveway and this is what I saw. He/she let me shoot for about 5 minutes before its tummy was full.

Day Seventy One Wow... Seventy One. You don't know how difficult this was. We went to Fredricksburg Va today for my grand daughter's 5th birthday. We had the party at a gymnastics training center. The started with Trampoline jumping and tumbling, then finished off with dives into a pit of...

Day Seventy Wow seventy days already. Who'da Thunk It. Anyway. I lost a button on one of my favorite (and oldest) shirts. I asked my wife if she's sew one on... She told me if I could find one that matched. PS: I didn't and She didn't.
