It’s been quite a year! So much has happened since the summer of ’17, none of which included posting…a music festival, extended-family vacation in Maine, senior photos, my Mom’s unexpected passing, we got a dog, lots of connecting with nature and humans, an excursion to Philly, a family wedding (first
Or, Who am I kidding? July 8, 2017 As the weather turned warmer and days grew longer, work’s busy season emerged, leaving less time for setting up and editing photos. It came in fits and starts for a time, but by June, the well had run dry. If not a robust
May 21, 2017 Another long break between posts… since the last, we have celebrated Mothers’ Day and the Boy’s birthday, taken a number of walks through town and across the river, and experienced one rainy day after another and still no photos. Until today… Another walk around town, though most
May 3, 2017 A return to warm weather yesterday, but back below normal temperatures today – at least the sun came out. The boy came over today with a friend and we cooked out, giving me the opportunity for the first gratuitous grill/food shots of the spring. I was going

April 16, 2017 Easter. Wonderful weather and time with family. I’m not particularly religious, though I do consider myself to be spiritual and, rather than squint through a lens all day, I tried to practice mindfulness and to remain present. So, not too many photos – but here are a
April 15, 2017 I was asked to take photos of youth hockey evals for use on a league website. I’m not really set up for sports photography, but wanted to help and thought it would be a good opportunity to work on technique. I’ve only shot in an ice rink
April 11, 2017 …getting better – only a week since the last post! This is another from around the yard. We have three rather large forsythia bushes next to the driveway and this one was catching the evening light as I pulled into the drive, giving it a painterly feel
