The Latest Photo

Dad -- age 87 years, five months.

He says that the undertaker is getting impatient, but he doesn't care. He adds, "That's his problem, not mine."

Experimenting

Hi Friends,

Sometimes you need to experiment with your camera to find out just what it can do. I experimented this afternoon, taking photos of the geraniums planted in flower pots around our deck railing. Here is a sample of the results. The white background on the first photo is the white siding on the house. The green background in the second photo is grass. I wish I could remember how I got that black background in the third photo.

Mid-Summer Rain

Hi Friends,

July and August can be pretty dry months, but not this year. Seems like we've had a lot of rain this summer here in this neck of the woods.

Sparkles

Hi Friends,

Here are some photos of morning over the Atlantic. They were taken in the late summer a couple of years ago from a hotel room high above the marina at Atlantic City. Makes me lonesome for the ocean.

If I Could Only Bottle This Smell

Hi Friends,

Here are some photos taken tonight after an early evening summer storm. The fragrance from the wet woods can never be captured by a photograph. You have to be there.

I'm a Sudoku

You Are Sudoku

You are simple, modern and elegant. You're not that difficult to figure out, but very few people truly get you. You approach the world with a pure logic that most people will never grasp.

What Kind of Puzzle Are You?

There may be some truth in this. I love these puzzles!

Mystic Seaport Revisited

Hi Everyone,

Here is a rather old video (1994) from a side trip to Mystic Seaport, CT taken on a vacation in New England fourteen years ago.
The video was shot with a Hi 8 video camera onto Hi 8 tape. Ten years later it was copied onto DV tape and captured into a Power Mac. Then it was edited in Final Cut Express and recorded onto a DVD in iDVD. And then, it was ... blah. blah, blah.

Enjoy the show.
