She thpought she was out trying to get a capture of the sun, headed to sleep, but little did she know that she was part of the bigger picture.
Treasures passed down from one generation to the next often are resigned to a life spent in cardboard boxes. There is just so much space for all the collections that each person finds worthy of keeping. However, I've discovered that items that held such pleasure for someone half a century ago can also win my heart. Recently I unpacked some of my mother-in-law's antique perfume bottles. I found myself surprised by the reflected colors in my viewing lens.
Was another chance at a pretty sunset this cold evening so headed down to my sister's house along Middle River. With temperatures below freezing, by the time I finished taking photos for around 15 minutes, my hands were quite cold ... but it was worth it.
While this sunset was not as 'epic' as the sunset on December 7th, it was still very pretty. This capture was taken as the sunset ended, I took this before heading back inside to visit with my sister for a few minutes. Had to warm my frozen hands up petting her dogs who were very excited to see me there as well ;)
A fresh Happy Bench Monday captured this evening.
These beautiful black bellied whistling ducks have always presented a challenge to capture in flight. You must have sufficient light to capture the details and especially under the wing but also they are fast . This was captured of one flying very close filling the frame. One thing they certainly know when they are coming as they are usually whistling as they fly !!
Wishing a beautiful and blessed Sunday !
Putting precious moments on a chip or a disk and forgetting about them until years later
At least - hopefully they aren't hidden forever....
"Oh, do you remember
How young we were
How happy we were
I was so in love with you"
Good thing we can forget the roughest times, but we do learn from them, more than we do from the good times
They may look like normal size leaves, but these are miniature Oak leaves growing off of that single little stem that has broken out from the trunk of the tree.
This tree is in my landscape and these triplet beauties caught my eye as I was cutting the grass yesterday.
In the house I went, grabbed my macro lens, and captured them from several angles. Here is the result.
What is it about autumn leaves that are so beautiful?!

This capture is a stolen shot in the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, when I was visiting Japan beginning April 2014 for Cherry Blossom season.
The Japanese lady waiting for the ned train is wearing a traditional suit "Kimono" and a mask. I took this opportunity to get her as my static foreground when the train enter in the station. I shot with a slow shutter speed allowing to get the train in movement but not too slow to get the lady sharp. By chance, the door of the train is captured in the frame of the picture. At last, I got the perfect contrast between tradition / static / monochrome / verticality on one side and modernity / movement / colors / horizontality on the other side. It comes to be a picturesque scenery representing in some ways Japan by itself.
