Today feels like the first authentic day of spring. The birds are all singing loudly and it was nice and warm - in the 70's. The spring peepers are doing their thing. This morning Dave and I went to Titusville to pick up our taxes. Before we picked them up we had breakfast at Perkins. Andy stayed in the car. Even if he doesn't get to go for a run ( Read more... )

We haven't had very many nice days (warm or sunny) lately - I was glad to get out and experience it.

The colors are beautiful! I saw where you were going to be 70s today! That is fantastic! Yes, spring is here. We are warm today and tomorrow, but a bit cooler for a few days. I have a feeling after that, it's the end of our cooler weather.

I am proud of you, too. I love when I figure something out like that without asking anyone.

This was processed with RAW and I used the colors as they were shot. The Super Takumar lens is very golden or yellow for some reason.

It is supposed to start raining today and then maybe even have snow on Monday or Tuesday. But I suppose eventually we will have a consistent spring. I hope!

I was very proud of myself for figuring it out. I was all ready to just get the trike home and let Dave figure it out but then I put some thought into it. The trike is set up differently than a regular bike even though it has the same elements. The boom is the equivalent of the seat post but it also lengthens the area the chain travels. Lots to learn about how to take care of this new piece of equipment.

Love the Supertakumar! A friend has this camera with great results. He likes different and experimenting.

That is one of my neatest lenses. It really excels at closeups on the nikon - not so much landscapes. Look at some of the very first closeup photos I did with it. https://egg-shell.livejournal.com/tag/super%20takumar Those are the best.

Gorg.

I don’t know why sometimes you list like 20 things & then you’re like, “But I didn’t do anything today.”

The chickens and the broom lol.

Thanks.

Ha - the keyword is productive. I always feel like I should be doing something for my business - either make new jewelry or do something about selling it. Or I feel like I should be getting the messes around here cleaned up. If I haven't done either of those things then I'm not productive. Then I start to wonder - what DID I do today then?

It may only be 1 photo - but it's a beautiful one! :-)
