Observation Bench I
Introduction: Tijeras Creek
Wel, I did have plans to visit some galleries today, but then I received a nice inviation to a Mother's Day brunch at a cousin's, nice.

Happy Mothersday & some odd ramblings
Here in the US we celebrate Mothers Day, a time to recogize Mom for all that she does, which is a LOT! So let me say Happy Mothers Day to all of you Moms out there. Since the film scanner is back in the sloooow mode, and six rolls of film are at the lab, I have... Continue Reading →
SoFoBoMo day 10
Well, its finally turning into a nice day. Yes, some wonderful sunshine.

This week – SoFoBoMo prep
Since my goal is to use Blurb as the foundation to carry my SoFoBoMo project (yes, starting May 1 for me, I get to maximize the 31 days, which I may need each and ever one), I became very diligent on trying to finish my first Blurb book, In Passing. So how is that going,... Continue Reading →
SoFoBoMo – Editioned Book
I have continued to muddle on about what to do with the SoFoBoMo project and the resulting book. I think that I have come up with a possible solution. One of the things that Laurie Frank had said at the Palm Springs Photo Festival last night was that many of the artists in her gallery... Continue Reading →
