What am I doing?


What am I doing?
Really. I conscientiously decided years ago not to learn how to shoot photos. My brother is a pro photographer johnheredia.com ; my wife can hang with best of them Set Out Running.
So why bother??
Well here I go -- I'll take the challenge, but there will be no editing of the shot, no cropping, and no use of fancy apps.
Equipment? my IPhone's camera.
Aperture? huh?
Lens? There's one in my eye, right?
That's it -- me and the IPhone and I will tell the tale of what goes on in this crazy ride of life -- at least my little part of it.

Day 56 -- Slap it on the Egg

So really this is Day 55 or it was supposed to be but now it's not because as part of the greatest hits it is Day 56. It circular,  like the Planet of the Apes.
I digress. This photo was taken at Thanksgiving. How green is green? As green as the Big Green Egg.  When in doubt, slap it on the Egg.

Day 55 -- Rebirth!!!

It is spring officially and it's time for rebirth!!! You can taste the pollen in the air.  Heck you can already start to see the yummy yellow pine pollen on the cars.  May I have a Claritin please.
Well my last post was the day before Thanksgiving, November 24, 2010. As many of you know an incident occurred in my family's life that turned our little world upside down. I had mixed feelings about starting this up again.  Over the last four months little things happened that prompted me to think about the blog. A little while back I found my Thanksgiving Day photo that was saved in my email account and last week I actually went through the blog and read it for the first time. It made me reflect how one incident that lasted maybe 15 minutes can knock you off the track that one is on. I did say above in the intro that it was the "crazy ride of life".
Thanks to those who reached out and let me know you missed the blog.  Thanks to all the friends and family who supported us over the last four months.
Something clicked today after I dropped of the child at school. It happened in a flash  -- that despite the boxes that need to be unpacked, the renovations, the work piling up at the office, I needed to get back on track -- REBIRTH!!!
So here I am on the road to get back on track (see Day 32 and Day 39)
The next few posts will be "Greatest Hits -- Double Live Gonzo!!!" I will post shots from the last four months that are on my IPhone as I get back into the groove.
Hope you will enjoy them.
