I was recently away for almost two weeks, with spotty internet access, yet managed to post nearly every day. Now that I am here at home with all the amenities, I can’t seem to post with any regularity at all. I have no excuse except that I can’t seem to get out of my own way. I hope to soon be back to normal…whatever that is. I took this while waiting at a red light on 14th St. in Washington, DC. Had I been stopped one light sooner, I would’ve captured an unobstructed Washington Monument.

Alexandria City Dock, located directly in front of the Chart House Restaurant and within easy view of the Torpedo Factory Art Center.

Almost like a Silent Sunday, though it’s not Sunday, and I’m not silent. Silent Saturday? Too late, I’ve already yakked on for too long. Lucy suggests I get on with it and post already. She’s waiting for her walk…possibly here.

This is the Woodrow Wilson bridge, featured in SkyWatch Friday No. 57, but from a different angle. It crosses the George Washington bike path, which we follow from Old Town Alexandria to the Jones Point Lighthouse on the Potomac River. Jones Point is one of Lucy’s favorite spots to romp and splash in the Potomac.

The print, “Pallets, Tyre and Junk,” that I won in Mark’s drawing over at Highton-Ridley Fine Art Photography is here! Mounted and signed, it has a beautiful flat finish, very much like that of a charcoal drawing. Printed on fine art rag-based paper, it is mounted on a heavy weight mat board–a very high quality print. Nice work, Mark. Thank you!

Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world. While you’re there, why not leave a link to your own skies so all can enjoy?

Yay! We’ve won a drawing for an art print from Mark over at Highton-Ridley Fine Art Photography. Mark has some beautiful monochrome, as well as color, photography that is well worth seeing, and each month he has a drawing from those visitors who basically comment on his work. He’s made a few rule changes recently so you may want to check those out if you’re interested in being included in one of his drawings. Mark has offered us August winners our choice from eight of his black & white prints, and the one I’ve chosen is “Pallets, Tyre and Junk.” While most of the other prints were of clean, sharp lines and orderly subjects—and of course, very nice—this one seemed more personal. Just random forgotten objects not looked upon with any interest, until Mark found them, that is. I’m a lover of old stuff, as well as nice black & white photography, so this one is for me. Thank you, Mark.

While on the penny excursion, we found this bone fragment lying on the tracks. A vertebra from a deer…we think.

 Nature, amateur photography, dogs and an all embracing sense of mellow, except for the occasional bouts of nostalgia and melancholy, that is...  |
