Wolfpack Turf

Day 27 – Wolfpack Turf   This awesome monument stands at the entrance of the Murphy Center at Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, NC.  There are six bronze wolves representing six characteristics of a wolf and of a Wolfpack football player: Confidence, Spirit, Passion, Courage, Pride and Strength. While it was not running today, this monument [...]

Winter Bloom

Day 26 – Winter Bloom So far the winter of 2012 has been more the winter that wasn’t. Here we are in late January and we continue to have very mild days and merely cool nights. Don’t get me wrong, the weather has been beautiful but I really would like a little snow. The spring [...]

Parkwood United Methodist Church

  Day 25 – Parkwood United Methodist Church I am working on a website design for Parkwood United Methodist Church. The current site design is missing a good picture of the outside of the church. It was such a beautiful day that I stopped by and caught this shot with the backdrop of the gorgeous [...]

A Light Snack

Day 24 – A Light Snack There are several squirrels that frequent my yard. There is always competition for the seed in the bird feeders. The “squirrel-proof” feeder often has a squirrel hanging from the edge reaching in for that forbidden snack. Sometimes you just have to give in and make it a little easier [...]

Listening to the Echos

Day 23 – Listening to the Echos Late Sunday afternoon, I found my young friend Lane and his mom standing in their front yard. It was a cool and damp day and there were not a lot of people out and about in the neighborhood. Lane had discovered echos in the stillness. He would call [...]

Courtney ‘s Senior Portraits

I spent a beautiful November afternoon taking senior portraits with Courtney at Duke Gardens and the American Tobacco Complex, in Durham NC.  

Rebound

Day 22 – Rebound I spent part of my Sunday afternoon at my nephew’s basketball game. I caught this shot of members from both teams going for the rebound. It was a good day for the boys in white. Great game guys!   Photo Information      Date and Time: 01/22/2012 4:37 pm      Taken with [...]

Time for a Swim

Day 21 – Time for a Swim Here’s another shot of those geese. After I had taken a few pictures of them, the two geese had seen enough. They decided it was time for a swim. It was also starting to rain a bit. That did not seem to bother these geese at all.   [...]

Look Both Ways

Day 20 – Look Both Ways I noticed this pair of geese heading back to one of our neighborhood ponds. They both paused a moment to look before crossing the street. I suppose even they have noticed that some cars in our area go a bit over the speed limit.   Photo Information      Date [...]

Horses Among the Trees

Evening Meal for the Birds

Day 18 – Evening Meal for the Birds As afternoon turns to evening, the birds of our neighborhood stop by to get one more snack from the bird feeder. Most of the birds saw me with the camera and quickly flew away. This little guy must have either thought I looked harmless enough or was [...]

Puppy Love

Day 17 – Puppy Love I caught this cute shot of my niece and her dog Brandy. Normally Brandy doesn’t care too much for being picked up. I suppose there are exceptions to every rule. Everyone needs a little love.   Photo Information      Date and Time: 01/17/2012 12:20 pm      Taken with a Canon [...]

Welcome!

Day 16 – Welcome! This cute little guy stands at the corner of my front walkway, shining a welcoming light for visitors. It was a cloudy day and his solar powered light is awfully dim. I suppose any visitors that may happen by this evening, will have to navigate past all those leaves on their [...]

Blaze at Dusk

Day 15 – Blaze at Dusk Here’s a second photo from my visit with family in Oxford, NC this weekend. I love to walk out among the horses on the farm.  This is my favorite horse pic of the day…. Blaze paused from his evening grazing, to pose for my camera. Note the grass in [...]

Up a Tree

    Day 14 – Up a Tree Sometimes you just have to climb a tree. . . Well, at least that was the case for these two girls on this chilly Saturday afternoon. This is how my younger cousins chose to entertain themselves during a family gathering in Oxford, NC, to celebrate my aunt’s [...]
