The plane looks sad that it can't be up in the great wide-open sky above.

Muffler Art
~ 90 blog challenge: day 14
The theme for the next few days will be airplanes. This pile of plane mufflers screamed "art" at me. Can you hear it?

A Sounder of Swine Shakers
~ 90 day blog challenge: day 13
I grew up looking at a passel of antique pork products, including these salt and pepper shakers.

Goodnight, sweet Dragonfly, the light does quickly ebb.
Goodnight, sweet Dragonfly, it's time to go to bed.

Happy Spring
~ 90 day blog challenge: day 4 ~
Just a happy, fluffy Robin enjoying a real Spring evening. Finally.
Still not tack sharp, but I like the colors, and lighting.

Chillin' Great Blue Heron
~ 90 day blog challenge: day three ~
This was a 4 second exposure with my lens set at 300mm and shot through a window at about 25 feet, so not a chance of it being tack-sharp. Still, it's a beautiful bird and I'm glad I got any shot at all in the twilight conditions.

Birds Galore
~ 90 day blog challenge: day two ~
I don't know if it's because Spring is a late bloomer this year, or I wasn't very observant last year, but I've seen more different types of birds in my backyard this past week than I saw all of last year!
My backyard is DNR land, which includes a pond that connects to a lake. In the last few days I've seen: Great Blue Heron, Wood Duck, Yellow Warbler, Cardinal, Robin, Black-capped Chickadee, some others that I'm not quite sure of, and the Great Egret, pictured above. I love birding.

Dirty Pig
It's Spring once again and I'm really feeling a drive to get back into photography. But good intentions aren't enough. I need discipline. And what better way to tackle discipline than to start a daily blog challenge? My last challenge was in 2011–30 days/30 blogs.
I can dooooo this! Time to get down and dirty–just like my flying pig. 90 days. 90 blogs. Starting....NOW!
I fired up my Nikon today and my flying pig was taunting me to start a challenge, so what could I do? Start with him, of course! I was shooting through a screen, which gave a nice soft focus effect.
Day 1 of 90 down. Woot!
