I have to admit that I wasn’t super excited about this challenge until I downloaded the (free) Lightroom app for iPad. I’ve had so much fun in the “editing room”, so I’ve decided to share the before and after photos with y’all. Thanks, Cee, for another amazing Challenge . I work in a Science Museum with a … Continue reading

Dark Horse: Cee’s B&W Foto Challenge
The challenge is black and white/ facial features (human or animal). One of these animals is alive, and one has been waiting for their Geppetto to bring them to life. Can you guess which is which? 🤔 Stop! Horses! By now, Derek is used to my incomplete sentences and knows to pull over when I … Continue reading
The Zoo, A Moo & A Ghost Town View

Would You Eat a Penguin?
Image credit:http://hdwallpapersstock.blogspot.com/2011/12/penguin-wallpapers.html This tale isn’t about Penguins at all, but it is about animals who mate for life. My two top-commenters are vegetarians, so they’d definitely say no to the query. Hi, Marissa! Hi, Paola! Just the other day, I was walking through an affluent neighborhood with my pesky dog, when she stopped to … Continue reading
When Groundhogs Attack!
Image credit 4ever.eu.com The official Groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, has declared an early Spring for us. That seems about right, because last week we were iced-in, and this week it’s been 70 and sunny. Much like Santa, Phil has helpers, who are basically the equivalent of Mall Santas. Some are good, some are okay, and … Continue reading
