    The Tour de Fat

    [ngg src=”galleries” ids=”65″ display=”basic_slideshow”]

    There are some strange people in this world, but you already knew that. And, when you give them a chance to express their weirdness with the Tour de Fat, they will jump on. Tour de Fat is bike-friendly fun for the whole family. They have a parade with some really strange people, live music, sideshows, and non-profit groups combine to make a great outlet for cyclists. It blends environmental stewardship with flat-out joy. These are images from previous years. This years event is this August 31st. I may find my way downtown with my camera and spare battery.

    A Casual Shot

    Good morning. Hoping all is well with everyone. Have an appointment this morning with a surgeon for cataract surgery I now need. There has always been a fear when I think about the possibility of losing my eyesight. So many core activities in my life are based around my eyes: reading, journaling, photography, blogging, driving and the beauty of this world.

    This is an image from a short and quick session I did this past week for a photo Dan needed on the website he is working on. He wanted some casual shots for customers to see.

    Today’s weather has been beautiful. Gorgeous red sunrise to start it off. We are expecting mid 70’s today but winter returns tomorrow with only a high of 45 and a nighttime low near freezing. We will see frost on windshields. End of weather report!
    After quiet time and meditation it was a bus ride and walk to Mugs. Had this young man pass me on the way home and just had to get an image of his backpack. I could see a series of images just of backpacks. Enjoy your week!
