It’ll be trees and streets
Most of my photographic opportunities are coming from local sources these days and I don’t foresee that changing in the immediate future, so, as fair warning it’s probably trees and streets for a while.
Along the streets
You can get a lot of different “flavors” in a small town even during a holiday where there is a central Christmas theme about. You might even find a few holiday critters.
In the Weeds
“In the weeds” is an interesting saying. It’s often used to signify being lost, off the known path or being behind or overwhelmed in completing some task. It’s not normally used in a positive context. But, it can be.
Pondering Question
When first announced in February 2012, I’d placed an order for a Nikon D800 to replace my Nikon D700. After a couple of months of waiting I canceled that order because I was having second thoughts on how or if I really needed a camera with so many mega pixels. I’ve thought a number of times about ordering one again and had even thought I would upon our return from Italy.
Venice, Italy
Venice, Italy After landing at Milan we rented a car and drove about three hours to the Hotel Tritone located in Mestre, a 30 minute bus ride outside of Venice. There’s many hotels in Venice proper but staying at one means you have to haul you luggage via water taxi or water bus…not something we wanted to do. We purchased a pass which gave us free access to the both the regular buses lines and the Venice water buses for a 24 hour period so we could hop on and off at our discretion.
