Downloaded some shots from a camera. Nothing particularly exciting, but I rather liked the light effects in the shot below:
With decent shots a little lacking, here's His Supreme Fredship in repose:
and snow blowing outside. It's nasty out there.
Anyway, after the joy and light of the electoral season, back to the nitty gritty of photography.
Local wetland:
Ugh!
Anyway:
Labor Day Weekend, so people are doing stuff, but drop by if you can:
Tree Stump:
Some raindrops:
It seems to have gone very fast. Next week, Bollox Minor is off to university.... and Fred is off to kittygarten.
A couple of shots from the recent pilgrimage to England, and then one from the Colorado trip:
But anyway, here's a shot I took at the local nature centre a couple of weeks ago.
Stay cool everyone. It's hot out there (fake news according to Trump.... just about everything is fake news, according to our Lord and Master).
Extra blooming hot here, so we're moles in our dark dwelling.
Next week, I'll be doing this on family travels for a month. Feel free to fill in
Here's a selfie from a local swamp visit:
With all the dire news this week, I took a quick turn through sepia Lothlorien....
I would add the requisite Fred shot, but he's on strike.... (kibble issues).
So, a cloud shot from a few days ago instead.
Basically no Spring,... straight into Summer (it's 90F outside).
Visited the local swamp last week. No evidence of Trump doing anything useful:
Yep, no snow in sight. And the sun is shining (miracle!). Wandering the neighbourhood is a lot easier and warmer. Here's a shot from last year: our obscure branch line of the old Minneapolis, St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie Railroad.
so I'm going for a walk (no snow, thank goodness).
Here's Purfleet contemplating the lack of snow.
Friends are due to arrive very soon, so this is rushed.
Anyway, here's Purfleet dreaming of Spring (aren't we all):
And Fred doing his interpretation of a talk show host (via a cheap point and shoot):
Got a dump of snow last night, and we're going to get another dump tomorrow. Very wet snow is a pain to shovel. I can't wait for Spring!
From earlier in the season:
Off to make pizza.
Remember, don't wake Fred. Purfleet will thank you.
Just about to brave the cold and go out for a meal, so you're going to have to pass messages between yourselves..... should you want to.
Anyway, writing of the cold, here's sculpted snow on our roof:
Still blooming cold around these parts. And we've got the Super Bowel to endure.
But anyway,....
To the photos:
Glass ornament:
The wild savannah that is St. Louis Park:
