catching a bit of sunshine
I mentioned the other day that winter sunsets in Scotland happen every early, at 3:40 pm on the Solstice. Plus it’s a cloudy and drizzly place. So who can blame people who find a scrap of sun to sit in while they read The Lord of the Flies?
(Sunset at the summer Solstice is 10:03 pm. I knew you were wondering.)

lamplight + leaves
One woman photographed at dusk, walking between the church and the cemetery. Also, sunset this time of year in Edinburgh is at 4:20 pm, in case you were wondering.

late afternoon traffic
Last year when I came back from Scotland, I wasn’t really doing very well – physically and mentally – while I was there, and during post-trip editing I felt a little bit like the quantity and quality of my images didn’t quite justify the trip.
But it’s a new year. I feel better. I’ve learned….well, I’ve learned a lot. And the photos from last year that I thought were too dumb to even look at suddenly seem a lot different.

i love a good reflection
You don’t have to spend a real long time looking through my photo archive (a term I use because I am feeling extra fancy today) to figure out that I take a lot of photos of things reflected in windows.
So you shouldn’t be too surprised to see what I found in Ness City, Kansas. (I don’t know what a “Ness” is and I’d be hard-pressed to call the place a “city” but at least it had reflections.)

magical lights
I will always fall in love with a nighttime street that’s got lights hanging over it. Always. Every time.
I mean, I don’t fall in love with it enough to photograph it the “right” with a tripod and focused and stuff. But anyway, my brain likes this more ephemeral look so my brain and I are going to make you look at this version. That’s the way we roll.
