Project 365 Day 166
Happily, going to my local photography club meeting worked out well yesterday evening, even though I had to bring my kids along. There might have been an ice cream bribe involved. :) I’m glad they were with me to see this sight, which I shot from the car, stopped at an intersection, on the way [...]
two new pages and I’m not done yet
This morning I worked on my first challenge for the Brownie Supreme challenge over at BrownieScraps. We were told to tell a story and to include at least two photos, seven lines of journaling, and blending, using a current kit in the store. Looking through my journal, I found an old story from 2008 [...]

My family has enjoyed several Renaissance Faires in Virginia and Maryland. The first one I ever attended was with my husband over a decade ago in California. It’s wonderful to be immersed in history, surrounded by period costumes, experiencing activities and foods of the time. Today’s visit to the Faire was even more special because [...]
Project 365 Day 116
Tuesday I had an opportunity to play at being a photographer. I was asked to take pictures for our Pokemon Club for a homeschool group yearbook. I think I got some good ones and afterward I proudly realized I had used aperture priority most of the time, with little trouble. That is to say, I [...]
cliff jumping
Here’s a path I didn’t take. However, I did jump off a cliff once. It was in the early 90s, I was near La Jolla Cove in San Diego with my boyfriend, and we came across a group of people jumping from a cliff into the ocean. My first impulse was to stay back, but… [...]
