Willow in the Wind

I noticed the willow on my way to work and decided I should stop on the way back to photograph it. Then it was windy. Really windy. I wasn’t pleased with any of my shots today. Oh well… At least I tried.

Window

I find myself so fascinated by windows. You can look through them at what’s on the other side; you can look at them – the frame, the glass; you can look at the reflection of stuff behind you, which sort of looks like it is also on the other side…

A Gray Day

After sunny and warm yesterday, today’s grayness was… well, a bit of a let down. Nothing caught my eye. I forced this photo.

I really wanted to cheat and post this photo that I took yesterday:
