I am so exhausted! I’m not as
much of an introvert as Dr. M is, but I believe I hit my limit for human
interaction this weekend (I was at a convention Friday & Saturday, and then
we had a long meeting after church today). So this will be short & sweet…
Sunday,
November 3rd
I went for another ramble in our local fen. I found a couple of
places with interesting colors and textures, but it is definitely heading
toward winter there. I wore the wrong shoes, so when I hit some standing water
I turned back. I did find a ginormous leaf that I thought was pretty
interesting!
Monday,
November 4th
Dr. M continued his November
leaf tour…
Tuesday,
November 5th
I tried to get a picture of the
Tax Time Pig, but as you can see I was not so successful. Ha!
Dr. M had better luck with the
sunset.
Wednesday,
November 6th
More gorgeous leaves…
Thursday,
November 7th
Speaking of gorgeous – this is
the neighbor’s cat. Lovely!
The moon!
Friday,
November 8th
Dr. M took this picture of Small Town Ohio in the Autumn.
I went to our diocesan convention (of Episcopal churches in southern
Ohio). Here I am in my hotel room. I am embarrassed to say how long it took me
to figure out how to turn off the flash on my camera for this shot – ha!
After the afternoon session my fellow delegates (and our
priest & her husband) and I went out for Indian food – yum!
Saturday,
November 9th
I wanted a cup of tea, & I was so tickled when figured
out how to operate the little coffee maker that I took a goofy picture of
myself.
These are the coasters that were on our table at the convention.
Pretty cool!
While I was busy convening, Dr. M took some more lovely
foliage shots.
And one last shot of Rosie – it’s time to bed her down for
the winter.
Go to Mamma Fran’s blog here
to see the blogs of all the other Project 365 participants. Have a great week!
Most of our photos are taken with a 12
megapixel Nikon D5000 DSLR, using a 55-200mm zoom lens. This is the camera that
Dr. M takes with him most days. He also takes pictures with our old reliable 7
megapixel Canon Powershot A710. The Bug uses our new Nikon Coolpix S6200 most of the
time. If you’re interested in which camera was used for a particular shot, just
ask!
Rosie is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe pig pic is artistic--modern artish?
The leaves are gorgeous, the sunset stunning and the moon magnificent!
But, hey, I wanted to read the Spanish on the coasters ;_(
Well darn - I should have turned one the other way!
DeleteI think it's time to plan an intervention. I think the tax pig is on drugs. At least he looks like he's on drugs. Maybe I'm the one who needs an intervention.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure we know who needs an intervention - the photographer!
DeleteI wanted to say how much I like your foliage photos. And then I wanted to say how much I like the sunset photo. And then...the gorgeous cat photo. And...your selfies.
ReplyDeleteSo I'm gonna say how much I love Indian food. LOL.
Saturday's yellow foliage against that deep blue sky is awesome! What is it?
Ha! You're funny... That's a ginkgo tree!
DeleteBeautiful Cat!
ReplyDeleteHe really is. He keeps hoping he'll get one of our sparrows, but we think he's kind of slow :)
DeleteA wonderful feast of photographs. Contrary to the impression you may have gathered in the past, I do love animals. In fact, I lean more towards them than towards humans; so I loved the picture of the mog.
ReplyDeleteHmmm... I've never heard of a mog so I looked it up in the Urban Dictionary. And I THINK I've been insulted. But I'm not at all sure...
DeleteInsulting anyone is not my style, I can assure you. A 'mog' or the diminutive 'moggy' is a British/English word for a cat - nothing more. The Urban Dictionary is full of misinformation.
DeleteAh! That makes sense. I kind of liked the nerdy definition though - I thought the picture of me in my reading glasses might fit :)
DeleteI thought of you all weekend as we stayed in your state. Very pretty and open! Friendly people, too. Love how you guys stop and smell the roses. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed your visit. I wish it could have included some face to face time, but maybe we'll have another opportunity.
DeleteGreat week in pics. Those ginkgo leaves against the blue sky are stunning.
ReplyDeleteYes I think those might be my favorite pictures this week :)
DeleteWas the tax time pig pic a drive by "shooting"? ;0)
ReplyDeleteI like the pic of the sunset too!
Ha! It WAS a drive by shooting! I got a much better picture yesterday :)
DeleteThat was not short but it was so very sweet!
ReplyDeleteHa! I noticed that when I was finished - apparently even exhausted I'm wordy :)
DeleteAmazing blue skies as a back drop for stunning photos...wow.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about maxing out on human interaction.
So perhaps that was a greased tax time pig?
LOL - that poor pig :)
DeleteI am particularly fond of the ginko shot. Nice!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteThose last two foliage pics (ginkgo leaves I think) are beautiful, especially the first one. Love the shadow.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think it's my favorite too.
Deletealthough my blogging has been a bit sporadic of late i always check in to the Bug's 360 - this week am loving the autumn leaves and the surreal tax time pig shot
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm always happy to see your "face" here :)
Deleteah, the fall colors are divine. be still my heart. your hair looks so pretty in the 'mirror' picture!! i love it down!
