And, I discovered their next door neighbor, Roberta, and I were in the same class at Heidelberg College.

Fire Alarm

The alarm went off, we evacuated our building. Smelled like burning plastic, but it turned out to be just a freon leak. We did get to spend some serendipitous time in the sun, though.

Panera/Thursday

Table and chairs outside of Panera. Cool silvery tones.

Mums, 8:06 pm

F16, 10 second exposure - No wind! It's starting to get dark altogether too early here in Northeastern Ohio.

September 1, 2009: CVPS PhotoWalk Critique

Shot at Hines Hill Conference Center.

Jim Roetzel offers a critique of PhotoWalk shots the Tuesday after the walk. It's a good learning experience - some of the "amateur" work is absolutely awesome. I was please to get a couple of "good eye"s, one for a shot of a bachelor button, the other for a raindrop-laden pine branch. CVPS and P365 both have helped me improve as a photographer.

August 31, 2009: Last Day of Summer

Ok, so it's not until mid-September, but it feels fall-ish here: cool, crisp, big, puffy Autumn clouds. Besides, Fall is my favorite season, so it starts, for me, today.
