Photography means “drawing with light,” and when you snap a picture with your camera, you use and record light to create an image. Today, capture an image of warmth… This image was captured on a wintry night in New England. The fire-pit was relatively new as I had built it only days before. I…

Blogging 101, Day 9: Playing the Scarecrow
I like scarecrows, and have nothing against them. I love autumn for it’s when I see them busy in their fields going about their duties. My favorite view is to see this formidable creature sharing his straw filled shoulder with some sort of winged fowl. I’m often temped to list scarecrow as a once previous…
Photography 101: Day 7
Day Seven: Big & Point of View Today, let’s go big. Whether inside or outside, photograph something of massive size. Feel free to interpret big in your own way, and get creative with your shot. This photo was taken today, just after I finished building the fire pit, seen in the back ground. I was tired,…
Photography 101: Day 6
Day 6: Connect–There are many ways to interpret this theme: from a gadget to a handshake, from a bridge to a gathering among friends. What’s yours?

Photography 101: Day 3
Day 3: Water & Orientation We have different relationships to and stories about water: how it has saved or defeated us.

You Have To Let It Go
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Happily Ever After.” “And they lived happily ever after.” Think about this line for a few minutes. Are you living happily ever after? If not, what will it take for you to get there? I am a strange sort of person. I’m not sure when this knowledge…
Wooly Bully
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Blogger With a Cause.” If your day to day responsibilities were taken care of and you could throw yourself completely behind a cause, what would it be? Have you ever wondered just what Woolly Bully means? I’m a sucker for songs and I find myself endlessly dissecting them…
Mum’s The Word!
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Truth or Dare.” This is a re-post from another prompt (Do Not Disturb) but I thought it was quite fitting for this prompt as well. Mum’s The Word! I have to admit I’m rather non-nonchalant when it comes to protecting my personal identification (PI) on social media….
