Happy Monday To You!

Who is this guy and what’s he doing in front of my trees?

Okay, maybe not mine … and yes, Dan is the landscape photographer in the house so it makes sense that he’d be shooting a landscape. What doesn’t make sense is that I shot this on the iPhone. But maybe I did that to send to our kids … I can’t remember! And of course placing him smack dab in the center of the image is a bit odd too … but there you go. Still, I’m posting it because I like this guy. A lot.

Trying To Remember What I Saw

Color. It’s a toughie sometimes. What the camera sees (frequently tends to be bluer than what I see: for instance, snow isn’t white most of the time, it’s blue! But we see it as white.) what we see (usually more yellow and often a bit brighter as well — perhaps because my eyes adjust to the shade?), and then remembering and processing a photo to what I believe I saw … it’s a challenge. But I think this is what I saw …?!

Devil’s Postpile

Looking back at October 2015 (mostly because I’m sad that I couldn’t see the fall colors there this year and since I was feeling sorry for myself I thought I’d make myself feel even sadder by viewing last year’s photos … I’m silly that way!) I was reminded of some fun places we stopped in the Eastern Sierra. This was one of those places.
 
I’d never been to Devil’s Postpile before and because we woke rather late in the morning (something G Dan Mitchell doesn’t do if I’m not along … sorry Dan!) he suggested we go there — especially since I’d not been. He has a spectacular image from the location. I don’t. But I still have my memories. And a few photos. Here’s one.
