Happy Birthday to Me.
I took this collection of flower pictures on my birthday. It wasn’t my birthday recently, but I’m sure you know when my birthday was without Facebook telling you. These flowers and the dog were all found in my yard.

Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest – 2021
It seems like a good time to review my first time as the Chair of the Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest. I don’t know I can say it was an extreme success, but enough of a success to build on. Participation was way down this year, but I think that was… Read More »Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest – 2021
WPC – WEEK 308 – TOY

This post is a collection of some macro (mostly) pictures I took across February. Most are of an icicle, but a couple are of a lilac bud from my lilac bush. I might get into the history of those lilacs at some point, but not today. And of course, a… Read More »Macrocicle

THE SELFIE PROJECT PROJECT came to a halt on the day Mom had her heart attack. At this point, I don’t know if I am going to continue it at all or not. My tentative plan is maybe to pick it up again starting in May, but we will see… Read More »Selfie Project – March
Dog Day
It has been too long since I’ve had a Naima post. I think there was a period during early pandemic where I was taking way too many Naima pictures. I was becoming THAT person. But then again, you can never really take too many pictures of Naima. Here is a… Read More »Dog Day

Tenderloin Appreciation Society – Working at Home
Would you believe that I haven’t posted a tenderloining post since February 5… of 2020? I mean, that just flat out sucks people. I know there are much worse things that have happened due to the horribly mismanaged pandemic, but throw that log on the dumpster fire too. It isn’t… Read More »Tenderloin Appreciation Society – Working at Home

Back in September, I strapped the Sony RX0 II to the side view mirror of the Camry. Loaded Naima into the car and drove down the canyon road at Ledges taking time-lapse images. Here are a few of them: I’m not sure what happened here, but I absolutely love the… Read More »Time Lapsed
