Masonic Temple, with Snow

Birthday to Birthday


This project began on my 65th birthday and ended on my 66th. The only plan was to take daily photographs. There's no system here, and no operating rules. I just took photographs every day and decided the next day which of those went into this album.

Dahlias in the Circle

09 Oct 2014 2 210
This year's version of our Circle Garden wasn't really a success. A half-dozen Shasta Daisies just don't cut it, and the Dahlias I planted in May seemed pretty unenthusiastic about the location. Until mid-September, anyway. Finally they started growing. And blossoming.

Formation

Sandhill Cranes against the sky, at Michigan Audubon's Baker Sanctuary. I'm pleased with the composition on this one, but am unhappy with the detail. Once again I was using the Nikon V2 and the 300 mm lens, but still wasn't nailing the focus. Still learnin'. Things will eventually sort out, I expect.
