It could be


For the 1st time in a long time, I was able to shoot the dawn...

Critters


I'm a big softy.... a stray cat showed up at the door yesterday (not this cat) and we fed it and made it comfortable. We put up signs and did everything we could to get it back to its owner.

I'd say that this cat is no more than four months old and as affectionate as can be.

Already having two cats and living in a very small apartment made it next to impossible to take in another.

The little kitty, which we started calling critter, is now at the local animal shelter.

It's amazing how pets and their unconditional love can so quickly touch our hearts.

My hope is that this cat gets adopted, and/or reunited with its owner soon.

So many animals are abandoned and I sincerely hope this isn't the case here.

Thanks little critter, be well, and godspeed you are with folks who will love you.

Good Reading

Hey Kindle folks, or anyone who gets one of those great devices for Christmas.  Make sure you check out the Kindle store.  There are lots of ebooks that are free, like The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes....  Still a great read!

California Poppies


All this rain we've been having should make for a nice wildflower season come spring....

Open Door


The rain has kept me indoors, processing images that I've all but forgotten about....

Heading On Down the Road


I know a lot of folks are traveling now for the holiday season. The weather adds to the challenge.... careful out there. Be safe.

Misty Morning


With fog rolling toward me, out of the canyon... I stopped to take it all in for a moment.

A crying shame


Despite what the media "reports", the recession rolls on. In driving around yesterday, I saw whole blocks of businesses closed up... gone.

Pummelvision


This is about a year's worth of photos. It's strange, and yet inspiring to see them go by so quickly. Really a good way to get motivated to go out and take more photos.

Show Time


My camera never made it out of the bag yesterday. Circumstances just didn't lend themselves to taking photos....

Holiday Blast


Doesn't seem like the holiday season, and yet here it is... Lots of activities today, so perchance I'll get some photos.

Out of time


Last night I began to seriously consider giving up photography. Just hanging up my camera, and walking away from childish things.

I've no time for it.... I'm sharing the road with tumbleweeds and dust.

I don't make New Year's resolutions, but I could make an exception....

Take me there


I've slowed down and let time slip away.

Bone Dry


Not much rain yet this year. We could end up with another dry year like 2008 (when this picture was taken) and not much in the way of spring wildflowers.

Recharge


A little mishap with the coffee gets the day off to a strange start.

Light my star

I'd been chasing a white rabbit at dawn,
Watching a stream of lights snake along the coast,
Just pushing along...

Just to get away


Away from it all.... Good place to clear one's mind.

The Hangout


Water... It's life. It also really adds a lot to an image.
