Guess What

with 4 comments

It’s back! After a gap of almost 2-and-a-half years —and with thanks to our house-mate, Anneliese, for her photo contribution— everyone’s favorite “Relative Something” image guessing game has been resurrected. It’s simple to play. All you need to do is guess what is depicted in the image below. Do you trust your first impression, or ponder the possibilities? Can you hold off long enough to wait for the answer to come to you, or will you look for the solution right away? You are in charge, but it is strongly recommended you come up with some kind of guess before clicking on the image to find out what this could possibly be. Guess your best, and enjoy!

Looking Down

leave a comment »

I have an affinity for looking straight up or directly beneath me when I’ve got a camera in my hands. I’m also a fan of surface textures and single content features filling the frame.

Adding in the shadow of a perfect hoof print is a real bonus.

dscn5513eI had just been looking into the sun at Cayenne when I dropped my gaze and captured the ground in front of me. She had turned to observe my activity and then resumed the noble pose that had grabbed my attention in the first place.

I captured both.

I think she was enjoying the last of the warm afternoon sun prior to our latest bout of cold rain. That is, cold in the relative sense, because yesterday it climbed to 50° (F) here, which is rather warm for late November.

Leaves us wondering when we will get to look down at our feet and see some useable snow. For the time being, it is mostly mud!

It deserves to be pointed out that 3 (pi)es were presented for dessert.

Sun Basking

with 2 comments

This time of year around these parts, when there is warm sun painting the afternoon, you best soak it up to the fullest extent possible. After tending to the horses when I got home from work yesterday, Delilah and I were making our way back to the house and were overcome by an irresistible urge to pause and bask in the glorious warm autumn sunshine.

After I took a few portraits of her, Delilah said she wanted to take some pictures of me. I gave her the phone and struck a pose.

She said she needed to fix something. My nose was runny.

If I used Facebook, I’d have to update my profile picture with that one.
