Am finally catching up
and in time this week!
The variety of clouds make it a painter’s sky
above the hills. No the horizon ‘s not crooked.
It is the ascent of a hill:)
Sky Watch
“Drytown welcomes WagonTrain,” the banner says, which is
Xenial (friendly relationship)
ABC Wed – X
Two doors on upper story, and one door on left

Talking about Perspective. A few posts down you saw in
essence a similar perspective,: a top-down view
which was a reflection, HERE.
This one, a straight top down view
in the harbor of San Diego.
The atmosphere in my little plein air, reminiscent
of Edward Hopper, living mainly in the first half of
the 1900’s. Some of the recognizable connections
with him are the stilted awkwardness, and the heavy
shadows (here much less heavy ). Reading up on
him, even though his paintings are of American
life, part of his heritage is Dutch! J
ust this discovery puts a smile on my face:)

Actually took my makro lens out
for this one. Easy to step
on this Tiny one in my back yard.

Speaking of Tiny :
adopted and created
by one of my grands:
how to get Funny
Mr. Tiny Pepper to walk?

Evening Hydrangea – on the side of a restaurant patio.
Love how the camera picks up the light
while not even on the night setting!

Last two images also for Photo a Week
Store in evening. It’s Sacramento, but they are not used to
photographers. While taking my shot,
immediately someone came walking to the front:)
Town mentality where I still can leave my purse in the car.
Weekend Reflections, Photo a Week
Evening clock and Doors
(also a reflection seen on the door).
The night sky is darker than this,
but wanted to show the time on the clock
in Roseville , CA

I don’t have connection to Switzerland in fact I didn’t even know about my Swiss roots until 2017. However, strangely I had a very strong urge to go to Switzerland for several years and when I went in 2010 I told my wife that I wanted to stay because I felt like was meant to be there. It was like Switzerland had a type of magnetic pull on me. Probably a coincidence but still strange. 🙂 The only reason I haven’t been back is because it’s too expensive.

I love your wide variety of shots. I got a macro lens last year and am still delighted with the photos it allows me to take.

I seldomly use the macro lens, because I have to put on another lens. But with the Tamron zoom lens – I could keep that on all the time (but the zooming device broke, so am back to square one:) )

The foirst photo gives me peace and there’s something in it that makes me feel like its moving. You have captured the dynamics of those clouds, love it! And that San Diego painting was amazing! I spent some of my formative years in San Diego and those memories will always stay with me (and of its perfect weather I must say compared to oven baked heat here in the Philippines HAHA) Happy Weekend ahead!

Jesh – love your painting of the harbor. I am glad you explained the background; at first I thought the boats had been piled up after a storm! I also like the pictures of the glassware, although I didn’t understand the reference to the store staff coming when they saw you taking a picture. What was the concern? Have a great week!
