Day 240/365 - well there's food around the corner , food around the corner....

We decided this week to try and plan our meals for the week, this was the first night, mushroom covered chicken thighs, peas and mashed potatoes, simple to start off , they get harder as the week goes on. A lot of slowcooker stuff.

I like the clarity of all three things on the plate, came out decent for the boring shot it is... Good food though!!!

....food around the corner for ME!....

Here is my nephew, sister-in-law and her friend who were visiting my ex Angi, they live in Berlin, Germany and came to see her and wanted to see us too. We went out for Chinese food in Reading, it was pretty good.

Sunlight directly behind me, very clear picture, the .arw version is even better....

Day 238/365 - You light up my life You give me hope To carry on .....

At Michelle's Pepe's 85th birthday we surprise him by showing up at Wright's Farm where he was expecting a few people , not 15. I needed a picture for the day and I liked the look of these chandeliers, so I took a few shots.

I like the lens flares in there actually, I went for this one that was dimly lit background with the bright bulbs, gives off the right amount of ambience

....You light up my days
and fill my nights with song ....

Day 237/365 - Over the river and through the woods....

A slow day , it was late I needed a picture of something so I tried a macro shot of this ceramic log cabin I have next to all my hiking books.

I used the lamp for lighting by tilting it slightly to let more in for the camera .

...to grandmother's house we go....

Day 236/365 - In the jungle, the mighty jungle....

Dropping off some books on cd at the library I drove around the back to head out and home and I noticed this sign. I didn't know we had wild CATS here. Something tells me it said something else under the giant CATS posted on there, I thought it amusing so I snapped a photo.

A simple shot of the day for me, nothing special but I like it for some reason.

Day 235/365 - Not to put too fine a point on it Say Im the only bee in your bonnet....

I stopped by this place that I thought was a nature place that sold garden things since the outside is decorated so nicely by a large manmade pond. I was mistaken, it's a sort of antique furniture place with a Filene's basement approcah of automatic markdowns on things after a certain date. Interesting...

Here is a small little birdhouse hanging by a tree near the pond I mentioned. I like the colors and shadows in this shot....


...make a little birdhouse in your soul....

Day 234/365 - I scream, you scream, they all wait for.....

Wow was it hot the other night. We took the kids to the Ice Cream Machine in Cumberland and I expected a long line and there was. We got there just in time to avoid a long wait though.

2 in a row of night shots, wow, this one was tougher as the people kept moving and I kept the shutter open a teeny bit longer than normal to get some light in the lense. Not a bad attempt. It captures the hot summer moment I believe...

.... ICE CREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!....

Day 233/365 - It's a good time, for the great taste....

Another attempt at some night shots, this one from across the parking lot. I don't like McDonald's , well I do, but I don't eat there because it's so bad for you, even if it tastes good, I go only once a year.... Anyways.....

Like I said an attempt at some night shots...

...of McDonalds......

Day 231/365 - Lets go surfin now Everybodys learning how....

I stopped by the toll office before getting on the Newport bridge to find out about a fast pass. Well across the street is a little beach that looked perfect for some shots for the day, I took a number of them and chose this as the picture for the day...

Put the camera close to the water and snapped a few different angles, I like the stillness of the foreground water...

...Come on and safari with me

Day 230/365 - Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned? Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?.....

I picked up these permanent color markers at BJs the other day because I thought they'd do a great job of inking some of my doodles. I think they work great, they aren't meant for large art projects but the type of things are draw are quite small typically post-it note size so these work out well, now if the tips were a little bit finer I'd be all set...

Nice closeup shot using the background lighting positioned just right to get the shot I wanted.

...Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?....
