A few miles down the road from me is this small pond, lined with Cypress trees. II drive by it all the time when on errands and, occasionally, will stop for a few snaps. The light was harsh this day, but the Cypress trees added enough Fall color to entice me to stop.

Метрополитен. Москва, 2026 г.

I wish you a very happy New Year 2026, and I also wish you beauty in your photographs and that they continue to reflect your unique perspective on the world we share together.

I also wish you love and, of course, much inner peace for the next 363 days!

And since you're so nice, I also wish you a lace thong clean enough to drink from, if a glass of champagne were to break!

Too bad it's a 2 hour drive to get to this old truck. Next time I go, I'll have a tripod and lens assortment with me!

I just had to post one more, while it's still Easter. This is a low spot in the yard that I planted these Iris a few years ago. Much prettier than trying to mow mud... ;)

This gum ball attracted my attention solely because of how isolated it was.

It was by exploring a vast world that little Chuck Bearry became the little guitarist that everyone knows. It was by spending a night sheltered from the cold in a pretty ukulele that, when he woke up at that precise moment, he had the revelation of his life: to become the smallest musician in the world.

This old shot just fits my abstract mood today.

At 8 a.m., it was cloudy enough to still have that morning light vibe.

No hair, no make up, no fancy dress (no AI). Just me

OK, I'm really digging in the archives now... ;)

The most important thing is the journey to freedom. The destination is not.

I think... I'm doubting now...

From back in October, when the problem was low water, as opposed to flood level river stages that we have today. Ever since Katrina, we don't have a lot of confidence in our levee system any more... {=P

Real Autumnal change is still a month or two away in Louisiana, but I find myself looking for early signs. We may actually get out of the 90's late next week, though, so who knows!

The forest constantly reconstitutes itself by recycling every single thing back into new life. We could learn a thing or two...

It's been a loooooong hot and dry summer. We're finally seeing some relief, but I think it's too late for several trees in our yard... :(
