parade braids
A little girl and a fire truck: it was a good parade.

snow/piper
I was in Portland, Maine, a couple of months ago – it was one of those places where I felt instantly at home and I am actively trying to figure out how soon I can get back up there.
The first day kicked off with the St. Patrick’s Day parade. Using our keen sleuthing skills* we were able to locate the spot where the bagpipers were assembling on our very first attempt. Yay, us!!

*Mainly our ability to follow the caterwauling sounds of the pipes.

It’s the end of the month, so I figure it’s time to move on from nighttime photos of Portland. I don’t know what I’ll post next. Maybe Portland in the daytime? Or Portland in the fog? Or Portland with daytime fog?
There are so very many possibilities.

in my secret life
There’s just something about a nighttime view of a restaurant full of people…
Also, if you’re in Old Port and in need of a sweet treat, I can definitely vouch for the cookies from Standard Baking. On a cold day, a cookie and a coffee will turn a Regular Afternoon into an Exception Afternoon. Just like that.

shadow puppet
I made two shots of this wall; I didn’t care for the first one because it had a person’s shadow on it.
Turns out, I was wrong and could have stopped with the original image, because it was more interesting.
