In the blogosphere

I have some of my photos on display in PrintedArt website.  PrintedArt does very nice archival ink prints that they mount on the backside of acrylic and use a aluminum backer for extra stability.  I am have a photo in a recent blog they put out.

Theme of the Month: Spring shots from back when we had Spring.

The Spring that wasn’t 2013.   My photos from April this year look more like early winter shots with ice on the lakes, snow shots and lack of color bombs that spring provides.  So good time to look at some spring shots back when there was such a thing.

Theme of the Month Extended: September 2012 What do you do with a problem like Lake Marie: shoot her!

The month of photographic splendor ends with a trip to Lake Marie State Park in Minnesota.  Still gorgeous weather and fall color is close to peak in places.  I am glad to have shot so much in September because in October I took 7 shots total. September 30, 2012.

Theme of the Month extended: September 2012 Fall forest, MN River Valley scenics

Couldn’t get all of April’s theme in during the month,  so we are  overlapping  into May.  Ah May where again snow is falling , where we refuse here in Minnesota to give in to the clutches of Spring, Summer and maybe Fall but that’s too early to say.  Don’t you  have to have  leaves on the trees to have Fall don’t you?  I digress.  Today’s post includes one shot from September 22, 2012 from my favorite dog walking area, Wayzata High School woods, the rest from stops along the Minnesota River valley where more migrating birds were seen and some peaceful water near Chaska.  A bend in the River, MN River by Chaska 002 A geese and pelican meeting A trail of rocks on side channel of the Minnesota River, near Chaska Cranes making approach for landing, MN River Valley Rec Area Fall colors in Wayzata HS Woods 002 Fall grasses and stump Geese and pelicans on the Minnesota River by Louisville swamp NWR 004 Old building in MN River Valley Recreational Area 002 Pelicans gather along shore of pond near MN River, MN River Valley Rec.

Random Abstract of the Month: I left my abstract in San Francisco

Ah to have a iphone with you when your bored and buzzed.  I was waiting on a hotel shuttle at the San Francisco Airport after a few drinks with my cousin downtown and this mish-mash of lines, colors and  reflections hit the old eye like a big tispy pizza pie.

I left my abstract in San Francisco Int'l Airport
