Jumper

He was contemplating a jump - changed his mind - but I found myself wondering if he was doing some sort of squirrel math in his head to determine whether or not he'd make it or die trying?

One of MY Work Tools

One of the problems with doing a photo a day, now for almost 2 1/2 years, it is at times it is difficult to see something fresh and new and to be creative.  You'd think that somewhere in a day I'd have a chance to be creative and take a "dazzling" photograph - but, today was not one of those days.

Here is one of my work tools...I use it a lot - so much that sometimes I can't even do 13 x 3 in my head without using an adding machine.., sad...

Emily's Birthday

Granddaughter Emily had a birthday celebration with us yesterday - snapped the photo as she was blowing out the candles - Camera was so fast I got the photo before all 12 were out...

777

Got a new car a couple of weeks back - a Nissan Juke - bright Blue 6 speed manual - fun to drive..  reached 777 miles so I had to stop and take a picture.   "....but, officer, I have this blog I do and I post a picture everyday..."

Linn County Photo Club

It was a hands-on day yesterday at the Linn Area Photography Club.  There were several portrait setups and members had the opportunity to try out different lighting techniques.

A Lime Cherry Drink

Cherry Lime

As far as I can tell - what makes this a "Lime-Cherry" Drink is the slice of Lime on the rim of the glass.  I imagine I could invent a drink called the "Lemon-Cherry" by putting a slice of Lemon on the rim, or wait, how about an "Orange-Cherry" with a slice of orange on the rim.  So, if I add a cherry to a glass of lemonade is it now a "Cherry-Lemonade"?

Just think of the possibilities...!!
