Day 48 of Project365 started way too early. Combine that with a cold and dreary morning and it makes for a very long day. Since I do try to find a positive side, I was slammed with work as soon as I arose, so by the time I was able to take Buddy for his walk the sun did have some height to it. Unfortunately, it also had a very large cloud covering it.
I am sure glad this is a short month. Trying to use a shadow theme without much sunlight is making this a difficult task. I have had to resort to timing my morning walks for when there is a cloud break coming up. Sometimes, I do not even have time to get the camera out before the clouds eliminate whatever shadow I threw. My photo of the day for day 47 of Project365 was taken during a brief glimpse of sunlight.
I probably did not give enough thought to the weather when I came up with my theme for February. After all, this is Southern California, weather is not supposed to be an issue. Tuesday provide no sunlight, so I had to improvise for day 46 of Project365.
Sunday was Valentine\’s Day, and the first one that I have had the pleasure of spending with my girlfriend. I guess after almost four years it is only fitting that we spend one together. My picture of the day for Valentine\’s Day, day 45 of Project365 is of Tanya and I as we stopped along CA Highway 41, just outside of Fresno, CA.
Saturday started with a walk through Mariposa, CA with my faithful companion, Buddy. Mariposa Creek provides for a nice view due to the nature that surrounds it. This includes not only the foliage, but there were lots of cool birds to check out as well. My photo of the day for day 44 of Project365 is of me as I paused on a bridge to enjoy the view of the creek.
Woke up this morning in Mariposa, CA. It was a little chilly, but the skies were clear and I knew it would be a great day to photograph Yosemite National Park. My picture of the day for day 43 of Project365 is of Buddy and I walking along CA Hwy 140 in downtown Mariposa.
I am not really sure what is going on. Granted, my internal clock knows when to go off, if something is happening the next day, but I had nothing happening until 9:30. Why the heck was I awake at 7:00 AM? That is just not right. My picture of the day for day 42 of Project365 is of me walking through the park, looking kind of tired.
Another beautiful day in the neighborhood. It is tough to find a better way to start the day than a nice morning walk on a sunny morning. My picture of the day for day 41 of Project365 is of Buddy and me as we walk through Columbia Park, in Torrance.
So, my girlfriend came into town a couple days ago, and I finally got a photo of us together. We had a trade show in Hollywood to attend, and since February is one of the nicer times of the year to go for a motorcycle ride, we took advantage of the weather and beat the traffic by taking the Limited. My photo of the day for day 40 of Project365 is of Tanya and I cruising across I-10 on the way to Hollywood.
For some unknown reason, there seems to be a large contingent of Steelers\’ fans that live around here. I always see them with their flags and banners hanging outside their homes. I might see an occasional college team flag in front of someone\’s home, but nowhere near the number of Steelers flags. My photo of the day for the 39th day of Project365 is of a decoration that I am sure the homeowner wishes he did not do. I wonder how long it will take his lawn to erase this memory.
