Slow Down In A Small Town

This small town, not far were I live, is a roll-up-the-side-walks-at-dark kind of place.The pace is slow and the people are very nice. It is a postcard of a gentler time and place. When I go there it always makes me think of how busy my life is in comparison to days past. So when things speed up I sometime will come here to slow down in a small town.

I used my Coolpix 5600 in for this capture.

“Welcome Home Our Brother” Says The Trees

Have you ever taken a shot for one reason but once you study it you see it for something entirely different? I saw this old house and thought what stories could this house tell if could only do so. What I saw after I downloaded it was something quite different. As I scrutinized my capture I noticed the trees and vines around the house and how them seemed to embrace it. It appeared as if the trees were reclaiming one of their own: “Welcome Home Our Brother” Says the trees.

One From Last March

Last year at this time I had many photo opportunities due to the very mild Winter we had. The mild Winter had Spring fooled into showing up three or so weeks ahead of its normal arrival time frame. Though this Winter was a moderate one, we do not have much blooming yet. So as I looked for something to post I found this one from last March. Enjoy!

I took this photo with my now deceased Nikon Coolpix 4600. I have purchased a Coolpix 5600 and I will test drive it as weather and my schedule permits.

The Bride discovered this as we and our Corgi, a.k.a. The Boy, were out walking our place  this past weekend. I set my Powershot SX10is on B&W in manual mode for this capture.
