    https://meanderingpassage.com//wp-content/uploads/images/2020/10/EBM-20201016123730.jpg Autumn leaves in a stream, NC, Oct 2020   –   Sony A7II, Tamron 28-200mm, f/9, 103mm    In June this year, I mentioned I’d purchased a full-frame camera, a Sony A7II.  I haven’t said much about it because what with the pandemic, Bonnie, and my evolving home situation, and a lack of photographic enthusiasm during…

  • The pictures are there

    “The pictures are there, and you just capture them.” – Robert Capa https://meanderingpassage.com//wp-content/uploads/images/2020/10/EBM-20201019110639.jpg I went for a little leaf-peeping walk yesterday at a nearby park, and while the majority of leaves are still green, leaves are not the only source for bright autumn colors.  Mr. Cardinal flitted into a nearby bramble and then flitted right…

  • Along the way, 79 – 10/2020

    https://meanderingpassage.com//wp-content/uploads/images/2020/10/EBM-20201016123515.jpg The recent beautiful weather and the quietness of our “now” home have allowed Bonnie and I to leave our dog, Maggie, and explore some of the surrounding areas.  Of course, I do so with a camera strapped across my shoulder.  When you’re with the right person you have two pairs of eyes to spot…

  • Digital Expressions – 1020.1

    https://meanderingpassage.com//wp-content/uploads/images/2020/10/EBM-20201010084747.jpg A sample of one of my recent explorations.  I don’t have any good ideas for a name for this work.  One name I thought of was “Abstract mouse pad with coffee cup ring.”  That’s when I decided it was probably time to push away from the screen and take a little break. ;-) I’m…

  • A walk in nature…

    “A walk in nature, walks the soul back home.” – Mary Davis https://meanderingpassage.com//wp-content/uploads/images/2020/10/EBM-20201008115522.jpg It’s been a while since I was able to take a walk among nature without driving for a distance.  Now, there’s a small river near us with a trail running beside it.  I was hoping to see some early autumn colors among…
