Winter Cold
Maybe there is freezing rain, sleet or snow.
Maybe there is none of those.
In the United States in the winter months
Somewhere it is bound to be cold.
Strong brisk winds blow out of the north.
Those winds bring an arctic feel to the air.
Piling on blankets or wearing more clothes
Helps to evade at least some of the cold.
Physical acts like rubbing hands...read more ❯
Love Day
This blog entry is being written and posted on February 13th, the day before Valentine’s Day.
I would guess that the majority of people that read the title of the post might think that the post is about Valentine’s Day. But it isn’t. It’s about the day before!
Before posting images on social media I check with several websites to learn if those particular days are holidays or if they...read more ❯

Minimalism
My latest Art Challenge image was a photograph of part of a lamp cord that was hanging off of the side of a desk.
The cord curved where it first left the desk top and straightened out as it fell to near floor level where the electrical outlet was located on the wall.
The room was dark, lit only by the desk lamp. The light from that lamp caused a shadow of the cord to form on the wall.
There...read more ❯
The Lamp Cord
We traveled to Ohio during the Christmas holiday to visit family and friends and stayed in three different hotels on our trip.
The very first night in a hotel I took my camera and captured different objects around the room. I almost always do that when traveling and have used quite a few of those photographs on my site. Oddly, that first night is the only time I took any photographs of the...read more ❯
Reflecting On A Heat Wave
One of my recent weekly challenge images was a photograph of my vehicles tachometer. At the bottom of that gauge there is an outside temperature reading.
The reading for that day was 109 degrees F.
As I was cropping and processing that photograph there was an “Arctic Blast” covering a large portion of the northern and eastern United States, The United Kingdom and several other European...read more ❯

Twas The Day Of The New Year
Twas the day of the new year and all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even my spouse.
The New Year’s Resolutions were already made
The bills from this past Christmas already paid.
My spouse was all comfy snuggled up in the bed
While snoring so loudly it really hurt my poor head.
When there in the kitchen while making my tea
I dropped the pot and it hit my...read more ❯
Twas The Day After Christmas
Twas the day after Christmas and all through the town
People were working to take Christmas trees down.
The lights and the garland that hung all around
By noon they were all laid out on the ground.
The women were standing in lines at the store
Returning the gifts from the people next door.
While Mama returned gifts, as I took a nap
I dreamed she went mad and returned my...read more ❯
