Of a Good Thing

Pistachios at Carrefour, a huge supermarket, huge.

Shanghai

Lightbox! :)

Some Little Wonder

Tethered, on the sidewalk, a bit wary.

A few things:
-I don't "favorite" images nearly enough, must remember to do that more
-There were snow flurries today
-I am so inspired by all of your photography, so varied and beautiful
-I'd love to get to know all of you better, so I encourage you to post random facts about yourself, I always find them so enlightening, or email me any time

Lots of posts recently, are you able to keep up, or should I slow it down? ;)

Overload

Made dumplings while in Shanghai. It was a really interesting and fun experience. Now I know just how easy it is.

I ended up liking the focus on this one.

*We made way too many, hence the title.

Another instance where something literally begged for a photo.

Just outside the market. There are all sorts of obstacles in front of doors so that bikes cannot enter.

New poem.

Suns Everywhere

I think of color as sun. Any spot of brightness is a new sun.

These carrots were set out on a sidewalk to dry, begging for a picture.

Poetry soon, I promise.

Deserted Lives

Shanghai streets

A calm part of town, I liked the small town feel this bit had. I like the "boring" shots that also tell a story. I think to everyone that sees this, there must be a different thought or feeling that comes to mind.
More soon, I promise. About 300 photos down.

Lightbox, perhaps?

To Walk

I went to Shanghai, China!
I took about 2000 photos.
I am exhausted.
I have been editing for an hour.
I had an amazing time.
I missed all of you.
I am still so thankful for my pro account.
I can't wait to do more traveling.

Suggestions on where I should go?

I took this photo on the first day. It seems that everyone had an electric bike or motorcycle of some sort. There was barely room for walking on the sidewalks.

Expect massive amounts of photos to come your way soon.

An old photo from 2007, a trip to Rwanda. I've always liked this but hadn't edited it until now!

Thank you to Clive and Rich for your thoughtful words and advice. It means so much to me.

Rediscovered

Old. From a trip to Gettysburg. I love it there. I could live there. It is so beautiful.

I feel rediscovered.
Longer hair, longer smiles. Staying smiles.

Thank you to everyone who hears what I have to say and encourages me through comments. I appreciate you endlessly.

I felt like the sneakers needed an explanation.

Tiger

a small sculpture of a tiger's tongue at the National Zoo.

I thought the texture was kinda fun...
