From A Recent Trip

It takes me a very long time to go through photos I made after I get back from a trip. Sometimes, in fact, it takes years. I get home, download (or is that upload? I can never figure that out!) them, and then I seem to move on. It’s actually rather fun to then “discover” the photos a few years down the line.

But of course I always want to at least share something soon after a trip, so I worked on this image today. This was from the start of trip. We began in the Eastern Sierra, enjoying the colors of the season.

Looking Back

A year ago today was the last day I gave oboe lessons in person. I had three students here in my house. We had no masks yet, but all my students were used to going first to wash their hands: I’d been having them do that for years.

Here, have some Thursday images, which are from even further back in time:

Reminder to Self: Stop Being So Lazy!

I’ve heard that “the best camera is the one you have with you.”

Um. Sure. Thing is, if you don’t get THAT camera out of your backpack and only use your phone you suffer the consequences. So here is my “I was too lazy and used the iPhone” shot. It works fine … but only in this size. Sigh.
