A beautiful start to the day.
Month: April 2010
Moth
This little guy has been sitting in the window sill outside the staff lounge for a couple of weeks now. I’m wondering how long it will be before someone disposes of the body.
Planning My Attack
I have a difficult time making spacial relationships in my head, which is why I rely so heavily on maps and GPS. Plotting out local cemeteries on a large wall map doesn’t just give me an idea of what’s where, but it helps me figure out which cemeteries I can group together for a single trip. The little dots have numbers on them which correspond to entries in the master list, each of which is annotated (township, is it on private property, is it easily accessible from the road, etc.)
It’s supposed to storm all weekend, but the forecast for Friday is good. Hopefully I’ll be able to get out and take some photos.
Books
Another Lensbaby shot, this time with the aperture wide open.
Jeepers Creepers
The grounds crew keeps pulling out the English ivy, but it’s tenacious and keeps coming back. And now, with the added bonus of Virginia creeper. At least the Virginia Creeper isn’t destructive.
Brick Wall
This is another Lensbaby shot of the back wall of my building. Nothing special, but I love the texture of the brick. Also the fact that part of it’s actually in focus! Not as easy as you might think, with an old-style Lensbaby.
Wild Geranium & Raindrops
I lied. I do have a couple of garden photos that I took over the weekend.
Wild Geranium
Raindrops
Spring Sky
Dramatic sky is dramatic.
I should go out and take photos of the garden. The columbine has a couple of bloom spikes on it. (This is the confused one that didn’t grow the first year I planted from seed, but then decided to sprout last fall, right before the first cold snap.) The buttercups and wild geraniums are blooming. The sedum is growing like the weed I suspect it is, and the coral bells have zillions of fat buds. Stuff is happenin’, y’all! But I’m too lazy to go take photos right now.
Duct Tape
The TP dispenser in the 3E women’s bathroom broke a few months ago. Apparently, this is going to be a long-term solution.
Bad Henry
Lest there was any doubt about her eeevilness.
Feets! I was only able to get a couple of shots of her feet, because she kept reaching out to grab the camera with them.
