Didn’t Make the Cut

with one comment

I spent a lot of time yesterday processing images of our trip. We took a lot of pictures. It is not logical for a collection of images to be so large that it takes hours to see them all. I know that. But I am not the best person at making decisions about what deserves to be included and what doesn’t.

So while I am finishing that task to my satisfaction, here are a few that I really like, but that didn’t make the cut, in no particular order…

Post-Trip Processing

With one day gone by since our return from Portugal, I am finding myself in a familiar place, with respect to writing about my adventure immediately after getting home. I need a little time for the experience to stabilize in my mind. I need to gain the added perspective of returning to my usual routine to better frame my thoughts and interpretations about the experience we had while away. I suppose there is a bit of jetlag that relates to this situation, but there are also the obvious constraints on time created by the need to deal with multiple weeks worth of chores that have piled up in our absence. I did get the lawn mowed yesterday afternoon. I didn’t get most of the photos from the trip processed for posting yet. Yesterday being Sunday, I did find myself distracted by a few NFL games being broadcast, after having been completely out of touch for two weeks in a row. Not knowing what has been going on in the league didn’t stop me from submitting my picks for the pool I’m in this year, but my selections were the result of a lot less informed choices. Meanwhile, how about a random flower image from the farm…

Captured image of False Solomon’s Seal that grows wild in the woods up at our lake place in Wisconsin. I’ll be looking for similar images to capture in Portugal while I’m there.

During my absence while in Portugal, I have selected some random images to automagically appear to distract you from thinking too much about what an absolutely wonderful time I am having with Cyndie in the paradise where we are staying in Portugal. Is it working?
