Anacamptis morio 2014, Antanges, VD, Switzerland. One of our first orchids. I am really looking forward!
The top three floors (of five) in the American Heritage Center, seen from an outdoor art exhibit between it and the museum. University of Wyoming.
And the archiving of my work continues. Now I am getting all of the drawings (well over a hundred), from Noёl Riley Fitch and my book “Paris Café: The Sélect Crowd,” labelled and in order. They were done in sketchbooks between 1995 and 2007. My sketchbooks are dated and numbered. Luckily, I put the sketchbook number on the back of the drawings. They had been cut out. So, it was very easy to find the year each drawing was done. Still more to do…..

Something a little different this past weekend, I did not take a single photos. I had to search though my archives to come up with a photo to post.
I had quite the busy and fun weekend as it started out by being invited (John and Laura) down to Saugatuck for a sunset boat cruise and dinner and Ice cream. The sunset was a bust but time with friends was wonderful. Saturday morning/afternoon Denny and I played in a pickle ball tournament in Lake Odessa. We made it all the way to the gold medal match but lost two games to one and took home the silver. Then Saturday evening Kari and I went out to dinner in Holland and more Ice cream with Denny, Brenda, Terry and Marcia. Very good time talking and eating dinner with friends.
Sunday morning I usually take a walk through Grand Ravines North Park with Lee but Kari thought that we should take an early morning walk with Tucker before church, so no photography in the park that morning. But we did have a lovely walk together and it was a great way to start a Sunday morning. After church I attempted to play a little more pickle ball with Joe, Nate and Bruce but the rain came in as we were just ready to start. Then in the evening my daughter Monica and her soon to be husband Kody came over for chips and cheese. Had a very nice time with them just sitting on the front porch talking.
So after a long weekend I sat on the front porch by myself with my camera bag ready to go do the sunset only to see thick clouds roll in and blanket the sun.
Even though no photos were taken this weekend, I would have to admit it was still a great weekend.
Mural "The archive" by 'A Squid Called Sebastian' at Voetweg 6 in Ghent, Belgium
In this students area, Squid showcases his talent to work with (or around) the elements a wall offers. The many papers you see on this wall, refer to the archive from the liberal workers union that's situated in the building.
Those days we just used to grab the camera and some lights, and in this case a wedding dress... drive around and just play where the light seemed good.
Photo of a photo, obvs. I was going through some photos last night and found a couple I thought I'd put up. I'm starting to marvel at how much my face has changed and not changed at the same time.
This was taken in the last couple of weeks in San Diego. Either late July or early August, 1999. I was crossing the border into Tijuana to get myself a monkey on a surfboard. Two of my friends from the UK were with me (taking the shot).
This used to be a standard pose of mine whenever a camera appeared. I didn't used to be so camera shy. I'm a little sad to discover how I've changed in that vein.
I had to post an archive shot of this House Finch because I had one of those extremely frustrating days with a camera. I took my old Panasonic for a test run before I decided whether or not to keep it. I wish I had brought one of my Sony cameras. What I got very blurry pics of: a beaver, a osprey, a kingfisher, wood ducks and a pied-billed grebe. I could scream! If I had brought my Sony I'd have something to post! The Panasonic (which I dropped two years ago and has suffered greatly ever since) is still good for closeup shots. I'm going to give it, with batteries, a charger, and an SD card, to Goodwill. Maybe someone with less high expectations than I have will enjoy it. I am a "pixel peeper."
Bad weather outside so time to play with the backfiles. From a day in Central Wisconsin 3 years ago.
