Rainy Day Flowers
Yesterday was a cool rainy day, and we headed to Fairchild again. Butterflies were not in the best of moods. We got some, but spent more time with the flowers, since it was cloudy, we could work longer than we usually would. In this case, I sussed the Leica 35 Summilux ASPH FLE, with a… Continue reading Rainy Day Flowers
Butterfly Expedition
For one reason or another, mostly health related, we had not visited the Butterfly Garden at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. So Valentine Day seemed like a good time to do it, since the rather was on the cold side for Florida. Sun was out and a little breeze for macro, but were going to be… Continue reading Butterfly Expedition

Although Wynnwood is certainly changing, less wall writers and more galleries, it is still a spectacular place to view art, interesting… Continue reading Miami Mystery
So Epcot again it is!
After a long summer break, mainly due to the Florida summer heat and humidity, we decided to take a chance and visit Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival.

I just started back painting some this week. Back to “macro painting”. Have been looking through some of my older paintings and some of the newer images that I think might work pretty well for what I have in mind. I enjoy painting within a computer.…
How we do fireworks
We love doing fireworks and Florida’s Disney World has three parks that offer nightly shows. You can choose from a variety of locations, using foregrounds to make the photo more interesting. Fireworks by themselves are kind of boring. Cityscapes under them usually work, but incorporating people or structures usually give you a stronger image.
