Grey Day on the Ferry

Usually the Ferry trip from Seattle to Bainbridge Island & back is a serene & pretty day trip. (hmmm, maybe that's because I usually think to head over when the weather is nice?)

Grey Day on the Ferry

Yesterday was a different story. There were white caps on the water, cold rain & wind, even some wet snow. That doesn't keep Seattle folks from going about their business though. There was a bike event on the Island, & a few adventurous (& thoroughly soaked) kids with hoods pulled tight pretending to fly across the deck of the ferry. Good thing there was a hot plate of potatoes deluxe (mmm, cheeeeese) waiting to warm me up at Streamliner Diner!

Diorama Drama

Our San Francisco adventure included a photo bonanza at the California Academy of Sciences. Exploring the African Hall dioramas was fascinating, & more than a little eerie...

Hello Deer

Zebra Watching

nothing gets by these guys, that's for sure.

Ready, Set, Go

We took advantage of the long weekend, & zipped off to San Francisco for a couple of days!

SF Weekend

Good friends, good food, tons of photo time (more to come), & all with this amazing city as a back drop. Sure makes me wish for more long weekends :)

What Do All Artists Want?

Why, to catch lightning in a bottle of course!

Lightning in a Bottle

(Usually when I process the heck out of a photo, I end up scrapping it, but this one turned out rather nice I think!)

Street Lights or Sculptures?

Street Lights or Sculptures

I thought these street lights looked so light & airy against the bright overcast sky (yep, no photoshop on the sky - it was really a blank canvas). Also, they reminded me of when Seagulls are drawn like this:

Do you see it too?

Sweet Sweet Friday

I hope you have a sweet & relaxing weekend planned!

Taking the Cake

Ours will be not only be sweet, but tasty too, since we will be enjoying this (store-bought but fantastic) red velvet cake!

Heart in the Shadows

Heart in the Shadows

I think this heart must live a secret life of mystery & seduction.
