Dry
For some reason, this photo reminded me of a beautiful website, The Eye of Science . Just as I was writing this, I clicked on Natalie d'Arbeloff's painting, and had the thought that my photo was the brainstorm without the brain. As you can see, I am grasping at straws these days. Did you know that the average blog has a lifespan of about two weeks.
Due to political poisoning and my new camera, I have not taken many photos that I like enough to publish. Actually, I haven't been taking many photos at all, and, as someone close to me once commented, if you take 5000 pictures, one or two of them are bound to be good.
In the past month, only about six batches of shots came out of the oven --most of them were oatmeal raisin . Mind you, I am a person who generally fills up her 1GB card (very many photos, for those who use real cameras) once a week, so we know that something's up .
Maybe it's just the winter doldrums . Assuredly, if I were to go to a tropical island for a few days, I'd be shooting all over the place .
Photo note: This is my old camera -- dried Japanese trumpet flowers, I think.
