Lunch Break Guerilla Photography
Posted in Photos and Art on Thursday, September 28, 2006 | 6 Comments »
The clouds and blue sky were brilliant today, warranting a lunch time photo drive. I work in a beautiful area.
There are some new ones in the Nature and Flowers set too…
Finally, a self-portrait from the end of today’s exploits to show off facial scruff, which prompted a student worker the other day to remark, “So, [...]

One of my happiest thrift store music finds turned out to be a tape of Lucinda Williams’ self-titled release from 1988. It cannot really be purchased any more as a CD and only a few places as a download, though MSN music has it for a good price (you can hear a sample of “Side [...]
New to the Blogroll, Long Overdue

For your reading pleasure, two additional ladies from my church who are thoughtful bloggers. Both Claire and Meg are in grad school so blog postings are not necessarily their top priority, but as luck would have it, both have recently posted. And with more readers and commenters, who knows, we may be able to coax [...]
Reasons to Clean Your Car
Posted in Photos and Art on Thursday, September 21, 2006 | 1 Comment »
OK, so I have a perpetual struggle with clutter. Rather like Pigpen, it seems a cloud of clutter develops everywhere I go, bedroom, office, and, yes, car. I blame it on entropy. Not having the classic guy reason to strongly battle entropy when it comes to my car i.e. impressing a potential significant other, yesterday [...]

The Loop in University City is so picturesque that the photos almost take themself. I did have to wait patiently for some of them though (click on the photo above to go to the photostream.. Having a hard time getting going today I elected to take the morning off (and then the afternoon too), and [...]
In Series

So, this may be the beginning of a series of sorts…
     
…and perhaps another one for cell phone towers. This one I am going to call “Ubiquity.”
     
And, more flowers. Wild ones this time.
     
The Sadness Post

Today, twice I watched my sensitive nephew’s lower lip stick out ever so slightly and quiver as he valiantly tried to fathom and control disappointment. First, as we sat down to dinner, his Veggie Tales plate was being given to a visiting cousin as there were only three of them and there were four children. [...]
Lucky Number 13

I have added some more photos (flowers, advent, passion, hydrants, harry) to the Misc. Photography-September 2006. Thanks for indulging this wee honeymoon with my new camera. Click on the hydrant to go to the photostream.
I am also a big fan of this number 13 who also wears red. He had a tremendous start this week. [...]
The Dassler Effect Gets Eyes

Well, I have wanted a digital camera for quite a while, but I waited, until the prices went down and until my itchy trigger figure could not resist any longer. So, on Friday the mail brought a much anticipated package. If you are the sort that cares about specs on cameras, here is a link. [...]
