    “What’s really important is to simplify. The work of most photographers would be improved immensely if they could do one thing: get rid of the extraneous. If you strive for simplicity, you are more likely to reach the viewer.” William Albert Allard

    I hope everyone has a wonderful and blessed coming year!

    Life is precious, do not waste it doing anything that your heart does not respect or agree with.

    This is about as close to the beach as I’ve been in a while. Thinking I need to pack a bag and head for a beach and sit under palm tree. After all, life is both precious and short.

    Cold Morning

    Frosty Leaves
    Frosty Leaves

    Yesterday morning we awoke to our first heavy frost and temperatures in the mid twenties. I did not want to get out of bed, so I didn’t. Felt good! After a late breakfast I took the bus to campus then walked to a coffeehouse called Mugs. From there I headed to Old Town. With camera around my neck I dis some obvious people waatching. Again, the mundane stuff to some people caught my eye such as the shadows cast by a tree on a window, frost covered leaves at the bus stop and a backlit leave on a firtree. Grabbed a sandwich then a bus ride back home.

    “Everyone has his or her own way of learning things. His way isn’t the same as mine, nor mine as his. But we’re both in search of our destinies, and I respect him for that.”  ― Paulo Coelho The Alchemist
