I want to do some fresh shooting but the weather for today and tomorrow is going to be below my tolerance levels so putting up some strings of lights on the porch will be the extent of my outdoor activities. And given the sound of that wind outside that might be put off another few days. I’m keeping my behind inside for the most part.

So the challenge is what can I do indoors in this simple abode. What items of interest can I work with? I know I need to work on lighting, and this looks like the perfect opportunity. I did a few setups early today but haven’t downloaded it yet. I made it through a few chapters on Studio photography. I’m thinking about how I can set up part of the space in the basement as a makeshift studio.
So space management begins again.
Giving Tuesday
I made a point of making a few donations to my favorite charities today and I hope you all think about helping your fellow man/woman out on this day. We are all more fortunate than we think. Today I’m supporting the Red Cross, the American Cancer Society, and The V Foundation, and will do one more later.
Oh, we also gave our plumber a nice tip today.
I missed some local shopping on Small Business Saturday so I have yet to get out and spread that part of the holiday but I will.
Random Thoughts of the Day
- Learning is fun. Putting it into practice is living.
- The smell of PVC cement is nasty.
- Going to try my hand at refining my signature pasta dish this evening.
- I may also slowly retire from my career as Mr. Fix It here at the homestead.
- I have to remind myself that the alternative to this cold weather is hurricanes.
