Waning
Spent the afternoon shooting pool with my dad (pictured here). It’s always a lot of fun — especially since this is one of the few things that we have in…

I didn’t have my flash along, so the white balance is completely ruined here. I had to settle for composition (and ISO 1600).

This is the first shot I’ve taken of this walk that actually feels right to me. Usually they just don’t capture the sense of walking through this part of Penn’s…

… not having to say you’re sorry for carrying around a crinkly star toy in your mouth. Too bad the camera was set for ISO 1600 when I grabbed it…

Lugubrious, adj. Mournful, especially to an exaggerated or ludicrous degree. We spent the afternoon with some friends at the Batsto Village country living fair. There’s no fault but mine if…

The companion shot to one I posted a couple of days ago. I really like both of them and couldn’t decide which to post, so I’ve decided to post the…

Saw this guy standing up on the Walnut Street bridge, over the Amtrak line. No, he wasn’t a jumper; just a curious, stupid teenager.

I wasn’t up to getting this online last night, so here it is a few (9) hours late. SEPTA (the local public transport agency) had a bomb scare in one…

I found this guy’s combination of a dark pinstripe suit and sneakers absolutely amazing. Throw in his inability to hold a quiet conversation on a cell phone, and it’s a…

Still working on my panning skills. This came out pretty well. The morning was very overcast, so the lighting is unfortunately flat.

I’m purging shots that I’m never going to use, and I couldn’t resist using this one. I had my telephoto out and was taking dark shots of the PECO building,…

These folks sure stay busy in Philly. A little more than a week ago, they got me on two minutes… $20. Sigh.

Proud grandmother, showing off grandson to all that will listen. Not to toot my own horn (because I had nothing to do with it): I think this is the best…

Some of you may know that I really like doing sports photography. I finally had another opportunity today: a Bocce tournament in Norristown today. Shown is my brother, clearly enjoying…

I didn’t have time to change lenses, or I would have shot this with the telephoto. I suppose I could crop it.

Unfortunately, now Sue is sick as well. Not a good day/night in our household. However, Jake has started leaving me secret messages in his morning Cherrios. Or he wants them…

Another shot from NYC over the weekend. This is my aunt Anne, probably watching Jake and Sue.

Tobi’s sister, Hanna, came to visit us. Today we visited some of her host family and spent time in a wave-making machine, whose enclosure was built by our friend Jim’s…

Another shot from my dad’s house yesterday. The hat is my dad’s (once can tell because of the safety pin in the brim — but that’s a story for another…

Jake was listening to me play harp this morning, and as long as I stayed away from the G harmonica (which is lower in pitch than my others) he was…
