Yesterday on Steemit, I noticed @claudiaz had posted a cool new contest, focusing (HA! See what I did there?) on wild animals (here's the link if you want to check out the deets for yourself - Photo Fun Contest - Week 22 – “Wild Animals” Photography). I figured given how many critters wander through our... Continue Reading →
Photos from the second week of July 2018
A couple days ago, I did a post with all my photos (at least those decent enough for public consumption) from the first week in July. Now that the second week has gone by, I'm back with more shots. These were all taken between July 8th and July 14 and as usual, are from my... Continue Reading →
Photos from the first week of July 2018
How the hezmana are we already almost halfway through July? I swear two seconds ago, hubby & I were looking forward to watching Pop Goes the Fourth (because we're such party animals), and now it's already (Happy Friday) the 13th! I actually read a post on Steemit yesterday that had a very good hypothesis as... Continue Reading →
Outtakes from last week’s #wednesdaywalk meander down my driveway
Last week I beat the heat, and managed a meander down my driveway for @tattoodjay's #wednesdaywalk challenge. Today, not only is it our boy's 21st birthday, but it's also a bit late in the warm (80F/27C) day to wander. Instead, I decided to go through the bazillion shots I took with my trusty Nikon COOLPIX... Continue Reading →
Random photos from the second half of June
A few days ago, I did a kind of a photography catch-up post (Random photos from the first half of June), because even though I've still been taking pictures on an almost daily basis (something I've been doing for a few years now), I haven't done anything with them beyond downloading them off my camera....

Random photos from the first half of June
With everyone going on with my body (and I promise an update post soon - just waiting for the official word on some x-rays), my shutterbugging has taken a backseat. While I still head out with my camera on a mostly-daily basis, I've gotten lazy behind on my resizing/cropping duties, and by extension, my posting.... Continue Reading →
Full Moon, May 29th – before, during, and after (kinda) plus Jupiter and Spica (I think)
Yep, just a few days late, but things have been... interesting around here, so I haven't been able to get this put together before now. Knowing that the weather in our area is tricky at best, I decided to do a "before, during, after" the full moon kind of thing, so I could make sure... Continue Reading →
Another visit from some Turkey Vultures, May 14th 2018
NOTE - While I'm not completely sure I've figured out the issue with this site crashing, I'm definitely on to something. Fingers crossed that things stay relatively stable now! So this past Monday, there I was, quietly tapping away on my keyboard, when something kinda whispered in my brain, "You're being watched." Sure enough, I... Continue Reading →
Full Pink Moon, April 28th and April 29th
As I mentioned yesterday, this full moon kinda snuck up on me. However, the weather didn't - I knew the weekend was going to be mostly cloudy and rainy, so I took a ton of pictures Saturday night, just in case La Luna was hiding after she turned officially full Sunday night. However, Mother Nature... Continue Reading →
Is that really… could it be… BLUE SKY in New Hampshire!
Yes, yes it is! However, just so I didn't get TOO excited about the weather, Mother Nature was kind enough to keep things cool outside - like, 37F/3C with some nice ~~frellin' arctic blasts of wind~~ breezes while I was taking these shots. Still - there's absotively posolutely no snow or sleet anywhere in sight,... Continue Reading →
Spring Sunday Sleet Shower
I wrote this post on Sunday (April 15th) for my Steemit blog, but as I mentioned that very same day here, my website was up to some shenanigans, and I couldn't get the photos to upload. I'm not sure if I have all the bugs de-bugged, but I was able to get this post put... Continue Reading →
The Full Blue Moon Sky Show
Mother Nature has been a bit fickle lately, so even though the weather report (at least the one I saw) called for clear skies Saturday night, I decided to play it safe and grab some shots of the Full Blue Moon on Friday night (technically, only 9 hours before it officially turned full). Good thing... Continue Reading →
