Tractionless Tuesday

Yesterday felt so good with the top down and the sun shining. A cool rain is falling today and the cover is on the car. No more car pictures today. I know you’re relieved, I was on a roll there.

Back to some nature that visited my back door this week. This guy is my speed. I was too slow to shoot this beautiful red fox in my backyard earlier today. I’ll have to set up before daylight on the deck in some cover to capture him.

Now if I can stay away from the baseball and basketball that is on and get some work done, I might feel like it was a productive day.

The poor weather is the opportunity to catch up on the organization of my photographs. Both print and digital need work as does my photo site. Much editing awaits along with some trashing. And why not now? It looks like the next 7 days have some sketchy weather forecast, so there is no time like the present.

I might have found another image to add to my Arlington collection.

Random Thoughts of the Day

  • Another strong start to the week. A nice balance of chores and fun, hobbies and rest.
  • I love having the house to myself once in a while, to blow the dust off the speakers.
  • The photo assignment of the night is to find something interesting in the house to photograph.
  • Bacon & Eggs – Steak and Shrimp – Breakfast and leftovers, again nice start to the day.
  • My wife found a wonderful shot of my dad holding me on his lap. Looks like I might have been 4-5 years old.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
