On the Waterfront
We have had a series of sunny days here in Western Washington, so yesterday I went on a photo-hunting expedition down to the new Waterfront Place development on Marine Drive (aptly named, don't you think?). The channel divides the long Jetty Island from the new park, which has a walking/running trail (there were lots of …
Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #381: Minimalism in Black and White
I have always been fond of black and white photos, since they can imply age as well as simplicity. There are a number of photos in my library that look like black-and-white, even when they are in color! This is the street where I live.

I think I took some very good photos last year, and I am quite happy to post them again. I'll start with my very favorites, the best ones I took last year. I think they would make good postcards. They are boats at the Everett Marina, which I took after dark in November. There was …

Final Photos of 2025
I thought I was done for the year, but then I went to a doctor's appointment, and out to the supermarket to get fixings for tonight's dinner, and... It's been a beautiful, sunny day in the Pacific Northwest, and as we say here "The mountains are out!" Behind a medical office I caught the Cascades …
Favorite Photos of 2025
It's time to display the photos I took in 2025, of which I am the proudest. These photos were taken around home, and far away. We took two big trips in 2025, to Arizona and to the Carolinas, and both trips were great for photography, as we visited places where we had not been before. …
I am proud to introduce Jocelyn Anderson, Bird Photographer
This is a woman whose account I follow on X/Twitter. She posts the most wonderful videos, of her "Hand of Snacks," wherein she holds out her hand full of bird snacks, and they come and eat. She must have an iron arm, because she can hold still for long periods while the birds come to …
