Picture of the Day -- 18 March 2009


The difference a day makes...

Still not much like spring round here.

Picture of the Day -- 16 March 2009



If it weren't for the rain making the verdant fields create a mysteriously low to the ground green aura, it would be a black, white, and gray looking world right now. The birds returning for the spring aren't really helping my mood when they sit in still leafless trees and look like this.

The rain continued into Sunday. Despite the cold and rainy weather, there are small signs of spring.

We don't pay for snow removal vehicles down here, we pay for salt, and lots of it. The rain later in the day will take this straight in to the Potomac. A brackish day near the storm sewer outlets.

Pictures of the Day returning



As I am bearing down on dissertation deadlines like a brakeless tractor trailer headed down the side of a steep fjord and have some other changes in my personal life I will try to ramp up the Pictures of the Day so that I take (and hopefully post) a new one every day . Commentary will be down to a bear minimum, but if I find the time I will photos from this past winter that will be entitled "Reflections of Winter" as part of a larger photo montage entitled "Reflections of My Life." The idea occurred to me as I walked back from the local farmers market after a rain storm this past fall and took what became one of my favorite pictures I took early during my POD winter hiatus.

Picture of the Day -- 02 March 2009


Like the spring growth rising above a fresh snow fall, the pictures of the day are nearing return after their darkness induced hiatus.

In the very near future


Lest you think my cellphone camera has broken, it has not and I have taken about 150 pictures since I let PODs drift into the winter darkness. When I finish culling the pictures and take a break from dissertating, I will start posting them. A new theme is emerging, but I will let your imagination run wild in the meantime.

Rock Creek on the way home from a Villagers tie. (This one, beyond my own personal injuries, was a good one.)
