In 2012, I went to Washington, DC for the first time. One of our first stops on our walking tour of the city was the Library of Congress. I was absolutely blown away by the beauty of the inside of the main Library building, and it felt like I took an hour just taking pictures …

I think Cheeky pretty accurately describes this guy, and his little friend. His little mouse friend makes him look cross-eyed. Here is who they are. A nice, sunny afternoon on the shore of Lake Coeur D'Alene, Idaho. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/cheeky/
At the marina on the Inner Harbour of Victoria, British Columbia, this morning shot of the boats, and the very calm water. Gentle ripples, and no one stirring this early. The world seemed to be holding its breath. I loved the boats-such a wide variety, with no two even remotely alike. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/serene/
When I'm out with my camera, I like pointing it up at the sky. Sometimes I find interesting shapes. This one is on the outside of the building where I work. It's the top of the ladder to the roof, but seen against a blue sky, it's art. Then, at night, in Arizona, again pointing …

The fact that cloud formations are by their nature temporary makes you appreciate them more. How often have you looked up at spectacular clouds, and had to keep watching as they scud across the sky at the mercy of winds on high? Our skies out here in Western Washington State are often gray, but there …
This piece of building, obviously in ruins now, was the beginning of a breakthrough that formed the beginnings of Gothic architecture. Want to see the rest of this very old building? Here it is. You can see the tracery wall in the middle front of the medieval castle. A peek into history. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/peek/
This is the view from the deck of our vacation house in Bigfork, Montana, on September 7, the day after we got there from Washington. You can't see much, due to the smoke from the terrible wildfires, that closed Glacier National Park, and prevented our group from doing most outdoor activities. And on September 10, …
The Grand Canyon dwarfs the people in this picture. Those cliffs are very high, and you wouldn't want to fall into the canyon. But if you see the Grand Canyon from an airplane, it looks pretty small. And those people would totally disappear. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/scale-2/
Hubby and I spent the afternoon yesterday in the town of Port Townsend, on the Olympic Peninsula, collecting on the last of the Jazz package we bought at an auction (dinner at the Hanazono Asian Noodle House). Before dinner, we walked up what seemed like 1,000 steps to check out the Uptown neighborhood. Walking down …
I have gotten pretty good at taking photos from the passenger-side windows of our car. On our way to Montana and back, I shot these photos from the moving vehicle-I really wanted my friends to see what the air quality was, as a result of the wildfires in Montana and Eastern Washington. This was just …
