193-197/366: March Meeting

Buildings in downtown Baltimore, near the convention center.

I didn’t take the DSLR to March Meeting with me, but I did throw a point-and-shoot in my bag. A few of these are still just cell-phone snapshots, because I didn’t have the bag with me all the time. 193/366: Stadium View When I checked into the hotel, they told me I had a “stadium… Continue reading 193-197/366: March Meeting

192/366: Springing

Little purple flowers.

One of the surest signs of the imminent arrival of spring is the appearance of these little purple flowers in our back yard in large bunches. I have no idea what they are, but they’re kind of photogenic, so… Having spent much too long on the Internet, I can just about convince myself that this… Continue reading 192/366: Springing

191/366: M-O-O-N

The crescent moon dropping behind the trees across the street.

Really not a lot to say about this one. Pretty nice crescent moon last night, still had the telephoto lens on the camera, so: this shot.

189-190/366: Technology

A slightly fuzzy plane through a tree.

Having done a thematic set of animal photos, it makes sense to complete the catching-up process by pulling together a couple of shots of man-made things. 189/366: Tower This is also from my trip to the post office the other day. The tall tower is a broadcast antenna of some sort from the CBS station,… Continue reading 189-190/366: Technology

185-188/366: Critters

Hovercardinal goes whirrrrrrrr

Sunday and Monday were wrecked by SteelyKid getting sick. She was actually only really ill on Sunday, but that was highly miserable. Monday, she had to stay home from school, and we spent the day watching the original Star Wars trilogy (which she had refused to watch on two previous occasions…). So, there weren’t a… Continue reading 185-188/366: Critters

184/366: Odyssey

The "dance party" phase of the Odyssey of the Mind tournament last weekend.

I seem to have fallen into a thing where I take pictures more frequently than I edit and post them. I blame the kids– SteelyKid got sick on Sunday (her third bout with strep in the last five months), and The Pip has decided to get a jump on Daylight Savings by waking up an… Continue reading 184/366: Odyssey

182-183/366: Dunking and Monkeying

Two pictures of our very active sillyheads.

Thursday was a travel day, the less said about which the better. So, while I do have a couple of cell-phone snaps from the day, I’m just going to ignore it, and give you two better photos from Friday and Saturday. These go nicely together, as you can see in the composite that’s the “featured… Continue reading 182-183/366: Dunking and Monkeying

181/366: Luxury

View from my hotel room in Urbana, IL.

There’s a sort of Internet tradition of posting photos of hotel-room views when traveling, so here’s a very slightly artsy version of same: The first time I looked out the window, there was a big-ass truck parked directly in front of it. I like this version a little better, though. Kidding about the accommodations aside,… Continue reading 181/366: Luxury

180/366: Delay

Snow removal trucks on the runway at O'Hare International Airport.

I spent Tuesday flying to Champaign, Illinois, which was probably a big mistake. I should’ve booked a Southwest flight to Midway Airport in Chicago, and rented a car to drive down to Champaign, but I decided that might be annoying on the way home, so opted to fly the whole way. Which meant a United… Continue reading 180/366: Delay
