Things I Saw And Did

I saw more than one brilliant winter sunset from a fantastic vantage point.

Scott and I shopped and then had a blast with Kristen (and many others) for her birthday...

Yes, this pretty much summed up the whole evening of food and fun.

I enjoyed looking at a cool vintage 1940s sailor (in ceramic form) from my friend Steve.

I was amused by some worn-out looking character cupcakes at a diner.

Scott played Bodhisattva on my couch as we watched movies.

I gleaned some wisdom from a print on the wall of a restaurant lobby.

I captured a sliver of sunset unretouched (above) and then tweaked and filtered it (below)...

I accepted an Instagram Photo Challenge whose subject line was "Timeless"...

I used it to take a few moments to commemorate some timeless (and precious) family artifacts.

I let the sun's warmth shine through my windshield despite the bitter arctic temperatures.

Six Days Of Everything & Nothing

Evening views from the comfort of my bed.

Smalls and hip shots from home (and its many things to see).

Colorful places that the evenings take me to.

A bright kitchen that greets me when I don't want to be awake so early.

A self portrait and a desktop shot... At work, filtered with the PicFX app.

More vignettes from home, from work, from play.

Got confirmation that some things should NEVER be bought in the Clearance Aisle... EVER.

Late afternoon and evening moments... Sketching and reflecting.

Watched Paul Newman in the (somewhat comedy / somewhat thriller) movie The Prize from 1964.

I stopped (as per usual) to capture more colorful moments at home and at work.

Finally checked into the Apple Store to say goodbye to my iPhone 3GS (and say hello to the 4S).

Looked at my Friday work day through the lens of the 8 megapixel iPhone 4S... It was really something.

Took an afternoon drive with the knowledge of a better camera attached to my phone.

I'd have to say its clarity and sharpness rivals that of my trusty pocket-sized Samsung L-100.

Spent a quiet Friday night to myself with records to enjoy and colorful spaces to enjoy them in.

Sketches for new mixed media pieces continue to develop.

 The energy that fuels the execution of finished pieces is beginning to gather.  Stay tuned (and stay illuminated).
