A Sunflower For Kathy

A loss occurred while we were away. It wasn’t a complete surprise, as we knew our dear neighbor had been dealing with cancer for a time and her wonderful husband had kept friends up to date on things, but it was still devastating to get the news.

Kathy was a sunflower lover … as she told me, she loved the flowers but would never grow them because the plants looked to messy! So Kathy, this flower is for you. I saw it in Thurnau, Germany and couldn’t help but think of you, your fantastic smile and joyful laugh.

Where to Start?

I’m having a difficult time knowing just how to start sorting through the images I made while on our trip. How to start? It’s overwhelming at the moment.

Truth be told, I took fewer than 300 on the Canon, and made most everything on the iPhoneX: it was just more convenient and the trip was, for me, more about seeing things and visiting with family than it was about getting that perfect image for a print.

I happened upon this picture just now, though and thought I’d share. I must say I’m quite pleased with it!

Paris

A Long Trip

Dan and I took a long trip — 40 days, in fact. We went to a number of places, and I’m sure I’ll be sharing a lot of images once I get the time and energy to work on things. I had to jump right back into work, so I’ve not been able to do much with all the images I took, but I put together ten cards to give to a couple of people, so I at least have those. Here are a few of Paris in the evening.
