I haven’t posted in ten days. It’s not that I haven’t thought about all of you. Or had things to say.
To hold my place in your memory I’ll post a lovely picture of something. Let me go look and see what I have that you might not have already seen here.
There.
I’ll be back when I have a moment.
It seems like it’s been a long time since I promised to show you the best images from my latest walk at Kensington.
While I was walking it didn’t seem like I was taking many photos. But when I go back and look there are way too many ‘best’ images.
So it will be hard to choose just a few. I so much wish you could all walk out there with me.
Though I know from experience that I do better photography when I’m walking alone. No one really wants to keep waiting for me to catch up.
I also don’t want to be those annoying people who talk so loudly while walking in the woods that they broadcast their arrival long before they’re visible.
And I have never understood those people who are racewalking through the trees. I can’t imagine they see much at all.
I have a hard enough time spotting wildlife when I’m moving along at my snail photographer pace.
Anyway, here’s a handful of images that I really enjoyed taking.
I hope you enjoy them too!
From my walk a week ago at Kensington.
At first glance I thought I had a tree filled with blue jays. But one is not like the others.
Ha. Made you look!
I went out to Kensington this morning. I haven’t been there to walk among the birds in a long time. I have loads of images to share with you. But this little sequence made me laugh.
I hope you enjoy it. too.
When I get some time I’ll look at what else I found and I’ll share the best of it with you. It was a wonderful day in the woods.
Dirt roads and pathways are everywhere around here. So when I saw Cee’s challenge I knew I’d find something fresh, some place you haven’t been with us before.
Friday Penny and I spent all day exploring. We started out at a new park I’ve renamed Penny’s Park. I’m sure she’ll have a lot to say about it and the other places we visited when she’s recovered from all that exploring!
Mike, over at MLCreatons and I had a short comment thread talking about being photographers that are always on the lookout for that one tree standing alone out in a field. I have had similar discussions with other photographers, so it must be a thing.
Anyway, Friday I was out with Penny when we came across this tree.
Not in a field exactly, but a lone tree with a pretty nice reflection on an unusual sunny day.
Made me smile.
Go check out some of Mike’s images, guaranteed to make you smile too.
Karma, over at Karma When I Feel Like It, has challenged us to a couple of photo challenges. One of them she titled “Before and After.”
For this challenge I was looking for something that changes…where I could show the before…
…and the after….
I honestly thought she’d be a bigger mess. We walked through snow and mud and leaves and puddles. Maybe she’s a Teflon dog.
She says she wants to share more about her latest walk in the woods, but she’s busy napping. Maybe someday soon she’ll be motivated to finish her post.
You never know.
Change Is Hard
