We're approaching the hamlet on Saginaw Highway (yeah, it turns to dirt out here), from the east. I'd take and post a similar photo to this on March 3--similar, but quite a different treatment.
I rather like the depth this photo shows....

Joan was ill and stayed home last February 6, so I didn't wander far from the house. I played a lot with the camera/phone's settings, using the cats as photo subjects. I then drove a bit around the immediate area and continued experimenting. Subjects included another of the Spitzley farms and a short tour of Hoytville. The results were pretty good, overall, and I'd try several of the shots again.
My fave of the day's photos, by far, was of Joan and Oreo, reading.

As the title says approaching 50 shots! It still amazes me that I've managed to get to 50 as I'm a complete starter and non finisher at things! I've had low points where I really struggle for enthusiasm and inspiration and other weeks where I just can't decide which shots to use as I have taken lots. This week has been one of the less inspiration weeks, struggling to find new and interesting things to snap between leaving the house, going to work and coming home again! I spend 3 hours of my day in the car... so thats where this shot developed from. I'm trying to take my camera with me everywhere now in my hand bag (even if it is a little heavy!) Was driving along and suddenly thought about trying to snap this..., even if possible slightly illegal. I did have my eyes on the road though!
Making our approach from the south to the airport in Rock Falls, IL. We will overfly the runway at midfield, then turn left to join the downwind pattern for the approach to runway 7.
Caltrain 225 Friday morning. Unusually dead this AM, probably because everybody has already skipped town for the 3 day weekend

Another scenic village, this time made up largely of cottages that I suspect would once have housed workers for the nearby Petworth Estate
Approaching Lahad Datu. All rainforest replaced by oilpalms and monoculture as far as the eye could see. What a sad sight.
Lahad Datu, Sabah, Borneo, July 2011
Col. Ben Skardon, a 1938 graduate of Clemson University, WWII POW, recipient of two Silver Stars, and survivor of the Bataan Death March, came to White Sands Missile Range, N.M. to walk in the Bataan Memorial Death March for the 12th time, March 17, 2019. He is 101 years old, and the only survivor of the actual death march to walk in the memorial march. After he retired from the Army, he came back to Clemson and taught English until his retirement in 1982. (Photo by Ken Scar)
Looking town onto the sidewalk below. I liked the composition of all the vertical lines and textures. Was hoping to catch a jogger in the photo, but clicked just a little too soon. but it made a more interesting composition. You get anticipation of something about to happen. I edited out the foot and the photo just wasn't the same
During the week the weather reports indicated we'd have record low highs and lots of rain over the weekend, with the possibility of snow up in the hills.
The forecast for rain sadly didn't hold up through Sunday morning and when I woke up and looked outside I saw just a few patches of cloud.
As we started our hike, though, it was clear that something was brewing. Down south it was still a little sunny, but most of the sky was covered in gray clouds. By the time we got to the salt ponds, the mean looking clouds in the distance had become streaks of rain (reminding me of the storm we saw in Jerome).
I decided more exploration of the park would have to wait for another day, and we headed back to the car.
