  • Frog and Toad

    ,

    When my kids were little they used to love bedtime stories. We still have a collection of their books in our little library. One of their favorite series of books was Frog and Toad. I’ve taken several photos of the family of toads that hang out in our driveway every night during the summer. Last…

    Here is a small collection of photos I took today. I made it a point to take the camera with me (with a 50mm lens) and just shoot things that caught my eye.

  • Caribou at Dusk

    ,

    Here are a few photos of Caribou last Tuesday. It was around dusk and there were some specific photos I wanted to take — local businesses on Bennet Drive at dusk, when there is still some daylight, but all the storefronts and signs are lit (those that are still open after 8pm).

  • Something About Change and Decay

    ,

    I took a short walk during my lunch break today to snap a few photos. I’m not sure what I find so fascinating about taking photos of the crumbling parts of town. Maybe it’s the way things change over time; nothing ever stays the same forever, which I guess is how anything acquires any value.…

  • Photo Habit

    ,

    Here are some photos I took at random over the past couple of weeks, both at home and on the road for work. As per usual, a disproportionate number of all the photos I took over that time period were of our dog, Jeannie, but I’ll spare you most of those — except for this…

  • a walk in presque isle

    ,

    In an effort to keep up a semi-regular photo habit, I went for a walk in Presque Isle yesterday. There’s not much particularly interesting in Presque Isle to photograph, however, I think that forcing myself to take photos of random things makes good practice. I went on a similar walk last year (Walking Around Presque…

    I went for a walk the other day. Here is a sample of photos I took during my tour around town. I’m thinking of putting together a photo book to sell online with the full collection of photos.

  • A Tiny Visitor

    ,

    I captured a few photos of a hummingbird having breakfast on our front porch this morning on my 50mm lens. OK. I captured a couple dozen photos of a couple different birds and picked the three best of the bunch (after editing them on my phone).

  • Random Photos

    ,

    Nothing really to say today. Just uploading some random photos I’ve taken over the past week or so. Our road has been blocked off few a couple of weeks now while the town drains water out of a large pond by the road into the Aroostook River. I took my bike there one morning to…

  • You guessed it — more pictures of the dog

    ,

    I’ve been sick for a few days and am finally feeling good enough to run around a bit with Jeannie in the back yard. Her eyes pop open the minute anyone begins to move in the direction of the front door, just waiting to hear that magic word: outside. We have a little path beside…
