There are various reasons why people stop blogging, I followed one woman just prior to giving birth to her first child, by the time she had her second child she fell off the face of the earth, can't imagine why she stopped. This guys blog I was following was the adventures of himself and his dog, he had this amazing dog and it was fun following them through there daily adventures, his dog passed away at the age of 5 from an illness, he stopped blogging after that, I can't say I blame him. I had absolutely no clue until this evening that I too fell off the face of the earth for 10 months. My reason? I just haven't had any ambition to go out and photograph. Not to say that I haven't photographed here and there but the times I finally got off my but it could take a month before I would even upload the photos. I've really hated this funk I've been in, it has been at least 2 years since this funk has started. I'm so tired of it that I've decided to try and get back into the...groove again. So I'm going to at least go through the photos I've taken in the last 10 months and share them to world, it wont be many but I'm hoping the photos will inspire me again.
Meet Bob and Ruth. In January of this year Bob and Ruth (our neighbors) turned 80 Ruth in January and Bob in February. I threw them a joint birthday bash, it was lots of fun, neighbors came by and we all enjoyed ourselves. Little did we know that on August 14th we would never enjoy Bob's company again as he passed away on that day. It was a terrible day but thankfully I managed to grab the camera and snap a few photos. The photos are a little crappy as I didn't spend any time fixing them. By the way the cake was delish, love cake.
Took me a few minutes to figure out what I was trying to photograph here but it finally came to me. Last February a car flipped over on the hill, still can't figure out how that happened. I opened the ISO as far as I could without making it horribly grainy, just got the blur factor. Oh well, must not have tried to hard.
March was a little more active with the camera, my neighbor's little girl was in a play, "The Little Mermaid" it was cute and both Greg and I had tons of fun watching the kids. They really did a great job. I also thought it would be helpful if I complained to the city that they have been neglecting garbage removal. They asked me to take photographs of the problem areas, I think they regretted that request as I took over 30 photos in just a 4 block radius. It all was pretty much cleaned up but I think it's time for more photos.
Well that is it for tonight, April I out did myself so I'll start uploading those photos tomorrow.
Not very inspirational...yet.
