Great work, as always. Love the turtle.

 

Oh, thank you. 💗

Yeah, when I pulled out the phone, I expected the little guy to crawl away, or maybe hide in his shell. But he wasn't shy at all. Maybe a turtle celebrity used to the paparazzi 😁

OK, time for more pictures. Hope you like them!

Ok, here are my latest photographs. It's been a while since we posted here, including a trip to New York State, so there some of these shots were taken there. Those were taken at Taughannock Falls in Trumansburg, NY, Old Fort Niagara on Lake Ontario, the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, NY, and the American Falls in Niagara Falls State Park.
 

As always, I love comments!

💗I'm proud of that one. I was trying to capture the sense of power from having the continuous thundering and gushing noise of the falls right above us. Part of the work involved trying to get our 63-year-old knees to climb up the 100-odd stairs needed to get to the platform where we could stand and look up at the falls. It was worth it for the amazing shot!

Thanks for your supportive comments. 😊

This looks almost like two lovers having a dramatic conversation on the balcony - "But Gladys, I thought-", he stutters - "No, Horatio," she states firmly as she pushes forward, "I need to be free, out there, in the world..."

Perfect model, showstopper, 10/10 no improvements possible.

I love that!

 

We honestly don't know what those weird things are. They might be a misguided attempt to be decorative or they might serve some purpose (ventilation? HVAC?) and the architect decided it would be cool to disguise their purpose. They're on private property so we can't take a closer look. But we thought it would be a cool picture.

I haven't posted here for a while. We've been doing less photography because my host consciousness was writing a novel. (It's finished now. We may ask for people from here to critique it.)

But we've gotten back to it, so here are the latest shots. Let me know what you think (but please be gentle -- I'm still a newbie).
