The first post on this blog went up on May 4th, 2007. Who would’ve thought it’d still be going 13 years, 672 posts, and 2000+ photos later?
It seems like I should have something profound to say in an anniversary post, but I’m not feeling any deep, heartfelt photography thoughts today to share. Instead, I’ll just remind you: We all carry our cell phones around. Make sure you take yours out and use its probably very good camera whenever something attracts your eye.
Here are a few sights I thought were interesting over the last several months when the only camera I had with me was my phone.
Light on leaves on a limb – From a neighborhood walk on May 2nd.
New palm fronds – From a neighborhood walk on April 29th.
Red Bottlebrush – From a neighborhood walk on March 14th.
Fire in the sky – Just before dinner at Cracker Barrel on February 7th.
Lynn and I are doing OK here. We’ve been sticking close to home and social distancing for what seems like forever. Florida has started to lift our pandemic lockdown a bit and I’m thinking about venturing out for a some careful exploration / exercise with my camera next week at one of the parks around Orlando that are beginning to open up again. It’d be nice to get out for a bit.
Changing the subject: I hope all Moms out there are having a wonderful Mothers Day! – Thank you for all you do – you make the world a much better place!

I miss you Mom.
Thank you for stopping by and reading my blog. Hang in there, stay safe, and take care of each other. And if you can – make some photos!

Thanks so much for all your wonderful and interesting post Ed…I am thankful that you take the time to share the beautiful areas around our state and encourage us to get out and look around. Have a great day…
Thanks for your kind words Jean.
I enjoy making photos and writing the blog – and I’m glad people sometimes find the posts interesting.

Congratulations on your “blogaversary”!
Good reminder about our phones and something I have not taken advantage of. You have motivated me to make an effort to explore the possibilities.
We’ve been on a few back road drives to get a bit of fresh air and are now taking baby steps toward our exploration addiction.
Here’s hoping “normal” won’t have to be “new” in the not-too-distant future.
Thank you Wally.
We’re starting to venture out a bit too. I went on a drive just to make some photographs for the first time in a couple of months on Monday morning. It wasn’t the best excursion ever, but it felt very good to me.
