A love bench and a double rainbow…

So I am cleaning some photos off my cell phone. My wife just had a birthday, and I made her a little love bench. But it is also a photo stand, because I carved a slot in the seat of … Continue reading

In which my pussycat is sort of a dickcat…

I do apologize for that title, but hey, the cat stole not only Koa’s bed, but his ball too. Then she swiped at the dog whenever he got close. Koa was very upset… SQUIRREL!!! The cat was like; ‘hey, the … Continue reading

In which my cat expresses her viewpoints on modern society… a series of pictures telling a story…

I caught my cat watching the TV yesterday. She looked quite concerned about the underpinnings of our economy, the wage gap, and the threat to middle-income families. She did seem to be slightly hopeful that our home state was at … Continue reading

Light and darkness, stillness and movement… experiments with photography… part 1…

I suppose that this post isn’t really ‘part 1’. It is a continuation of posts I have been doing involving experiments with low-light photography, light, reflection and refraction… I am pretty sure those two are not the same thing, but … Continue reading

Colors in the dark… part 3… but maybe I should have called these: ‘lights in the darkness’…

Is that an alien planet in a starless solar system? No, that wouldn’t be possible. A ‘solar’ system, by definition, has at least one star in it. Is that the ghost of Donald tRump’s brain? No, that wouldn’t be possible. … Continue reading
