Sometimes the light

Sometimes the light just hands you a gift.

The morning had been overcast, but just as we got to this building, the sun broke through and…this happened.

One day a few months, one of my photographer pals phoned me up and encouraged me to take a particular class at the Santa Fe Photographic Workshops; that’s where I am this week. Because of that, it will probably take me a while to respond to your comments. But I will get to them.

Corn-shaped Cornbread

I can’t recall why I ended up in Wimberley, or how I decided to check out the huge monthly flea market (over 450 vendors). But I guess it was worth the five bucks to park because I saw this fantastic cornbread pan, which is just like the kind my mom used. As an added benefit, someone (the vendor? a previous shopper?) had made this artful arrangement of cast iron pans.

I am sure there’s nothing sinister going on here…but still, that woman lurking in the bus shelter and looking toward the couple with the baby carriage seems to be up to no good.

I’m off at summer camp this week. Sort of. At any rate, it may take me a few days to respond to comments. But I will get to them. I promise. (As soon as I write that letter home, telling everyone what a terrible time I’m having at camp…)

Frank Gehry’s busy

And so is his architecture, most of which gives me a headache.

This one was no exception.

I try to respond to comments right away, but this week I’m away and it may take me a few days to get back to you. Please do comment, though….

Go There

This is what happened one afternoon when I was in Atlanta. I was waiting on my traveling companion to return from his outing* so we could go to dinner so I decided to try my hand at in-camera double exposures.

*I’d been at a conference all day and was suffering from carryover ennui. I should have been outside. Or in the bar.

I’m off in New Mexico this week, taking a photography class. (Finally! I’m going to learn how to take a picture!) Please leave comments, and I’ll respond as soon as I can.
