115/365 Spotlight
“A Lite Conversation” “So, which came first . . .the chicken or the egg?” Or, a spotlight on a warped sense of humor.

“Table Manners” I don’t usually have my camera with me at the dinner table. I also don’t usually look across the table at dinner to see a set of feline ears staring at me from the chair across from me. I did have my phone in my pocket and was able to snap this picture. I’m terrible at phone photography and I haven’t spent much time playing with all the photography apps that are available. I already don’t have enough…
113/365 Mail
“Tearing Into Books” I had a plan for today’s picture. I wanted a picture of the mailman’s arm reaching out to open the mailbox. I got home in time to go outside and get my camera settings. Then I waited patiently. I saw the mail truck coming up the street so I went outside and assumed my post. He stopped in front of our box. No arm. No arm. Still, no arm. The the entire mailman emerged from the truck….

“First Fruits” Erin brought us a strawberry plant. It is full of berries already! Though this shot is kind of busy, I like it because it shows the berries at several different stages of development. I also like these two very different perspectives on strawberries. “Ripening” “From the Berry Back”

109/365 At The Edge
“Edge Of The Water” We went to the park this evening just to get some fresh air and wind down at the end of another school week. I love to watch the ducks and the birds and the children playing. I love the sounds of the park. Even though there is usually a lot of activity, the park always seems peaceful to me. On our way, we stopped along the road so that I could take some pictures of a…

“A Love of Reading” Pictured here is a first edition of Robin Hood given to Weber’s father in 1924. Weber remembers his dad reading it to him when he was a little boy. The oil lamp has also been in Weber’s family for a long, long time. He thinks that it once belonged to his great-great, or maybe great-great-great aunt. Either way, it has been around a good long while. I love having all these pieces of family history as part…
107/365 A Sign
“In Big Trouble With the Big Cheese” Rick Maxwell, aka the “the big cheese,” is our division dean and this is a photo of our shared refrigerator in the faculty workroom. I think someone had the wrong idea about what shared really means! How could they take the boss’s cheese sticks?
106/365 Pie or Pile
Pie of Berries and Pile of Berries” At the beginning of each month Katrina Kennedy of Capture Your 365 publishes the list of prompts for each day of the month. Then, each day she sends an inspirational email with photo tips of tidbits of inspiration. I had been looking forward to the “pie” prompt all month since we have our family baker at home with us. When Katrina’s email came this morning, she said that she had actually intended for…
